DummyPlayer Class Reference

#include "include/dummy-player-facade.h"

Description

Experimental Interface Steam-Layer (or maybe the vault?): Global access point for starting a dummy playback, generating some test image data for the GUI to display in a viewer window.

This is a mockup service we created 1/2009 to collect some experiences regarding integration of the application layers. Lumiera is not yet able actually to deliver rendered video data.

In hindsight, this design study highlighted some relevant problems with our interface layout and the way we create bindings to the implementation. The moment we attempt to use other abstractions within an interface (as we do here with the Process interface), we're running into serious maintenance and library dependency problems.

Deprecated:

obsoleted design from 2009 and not operative anymore (2018)
