You should get a warning for this. But looking at this a bit more made me realize that a library user that does not want to wait with const-correctness until the next major version bump can't do so (without casts, that is): avformat_open_input() does not accept a const AVInputFormat yet. Maybe it would have been better to already accept it now (which means that one has to cast a const away inside avformat_open_input() until the next major bump)?
Furthermore, adding const will likely also lead to const-warnings wrt av_opt_find(). This is bad and will need to be dealt with before the next major bump. Maybe one should add versions of av_opt_find[2] that accepts a const void* (this seems to be more of a problem for av_opt_find2 because of its target_obj)? - Andreas _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
