Structure.getDateTime

bool getDateTime(string fieldname, out gst.date_time.DateTime value)

Sets the datetime pointed to by value corresponding to the datetime of the given field. Caller is responsible for making sure the field exists and has the correct type.

On success value will point to a reference of the datetime which should be unreffed with [gst.date_time.DateTime.unref] when no longer needed (note: this is inconsistent with e.g. [gst.structure.Structure.getString] which doesn't return a copy of the string).

Parameters

fieldnamethe name of a field
valuea pointer to a #GstDateTime to set

Returns

true if the value could be set correctly. If there was no field

with fieldname or the existing field did not contain a data, this function returns false.
