## GstVersion

GstVersion — GStreamer version macros.

## Synopsis

    #include <gst/gst.h>

    #define             GST_VERSION_MAJOR
    #define             GST_VERSION_MINOR
    #define             GST_VERSION_MICRO
    #define             GST_VERSION_NANO
    #define             GST_CHECK_VERSION                   (major,
                                                             minor,
                                                             micro)

## Description

Use the GST_VERSION_* macros e.g. when defining own plugins. The GStreamer runtime checks if these plugin and core version match and refuses to use a plugin compiled against a different version of GStreamer. You can also use the macros to keep the GStreamer version information in your application.

Use the `gst_version()` function if you want to know which version of GStreamer you are currently linked against.

The version macros get defined by including "gst/gst.h".

## Details

### GST_VERSION_MAJOR

    #define GST_VERSION_MAJOR (1)

The major version of GStreamer at compile time:

### GST_VERSION_MINOR

    #define GST_VERSION_MINOR (2)

The minor version of GStreamer at compile time:

### GST_VERSION_MICRO

    #define GST_VERSION_MICRO (2)

The micro version of GStreamer at compile time:

### GST_VERSION_NANO

    #define GST_VERSION_NANO (0)

The nano version of GStreamer at compile time: Actual releases have 0, GIT versions have 1, prerelease versions have 2-...

### GST_CHECK_VERSION()

    #define             GST_CHECK_VERSION(major,minor,micro)

Check whether a GStreamer version equal to or greater than major.minor.micro is present.

`major` : | a number indicating the major version
`minor` : | a number indicating the minor version
`micro` : | a number indicating the micro version
