From 50e184d3f1f1b89b15ccdf1268e68b43a435c7d0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?Niklas=20S=C3=B6derlund?= Date: Mon, 21 Jan 2019 21:47:49 +0100 Subject: libcamera: stream: add initial Stream class MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Add an initial Stream implementation. The idea is that once capability support is added to the library each stream will describe its capabilities using this class. An application will then select one or more streams based on these capabilities and use them to configure the camera and capture. At this stage the Stream class is empty as capabilities are yet to be added. The class is still useful as it will be used to communicate how many streams a Camera object provides.
