/**
 * SECTION:gstobject
 * @short_description: Base class for the GStreamer object hierarchy
 *
 * #GstObject provides a root for the object hierarchy tree filed in by the
 * GStreamer library.  It is currently a thin wrapper on top of
 * #GObject. It is an abstract class that is not very usable on its own.
 *
 * #GstObject gives us basic refcounting, parenting functionality and locking.
 * Most of the function are just extended for special GStreamer needs and can be
 * found under the same name in the base class of #GstObject which is #GObject
 * (e.g. g_object_ref() becomes gst_object_ref()).
 *
 * The most interesting difference between #GstObject and #GObject is the
 * "floating" reference count. A #GObject is created with a reference count of
 * 1, owned by the creator of the #GObject. (The owner of a reference is the
 * code section that has the right to call gst_object_unref() in order to
 * remove that reference.) A #GstObject is created with a reference count of 1
 * also, but it isn't owned by anyone; Instead, the initial reference count
 * of a #GstObject is "floating". The floating reference can be removed by
 * anyone at any time, by calling gst_object_sink().  gst_object_sink() does
 * nothing if an object is already sunk (has no floating reference).
 *
 * When you add a #GstElement to its parent container, the parent container will
 * do this:
 * <informalexample>
 * <programlisting>
 *   gst_object_ref (GST_OBJECT (child_element));
 *   gst_object_sink (GST_OBJECT (child_element));
 * </programlisting>
 * </informalexample>
 * This means that the container now owns a reference to the child element
 * (since it called gst_object_ref()), and the child element has no floating
 * reference.
 *
 * The purpose of the floating reference is to keep the child element alive
 * until you add it to a parent container, which then manages the lifetime of
 * the object itself:
 * <informalexample>
 * <programlisting>
 *    element = gst_element_factory_make (factoryname, name);
 *    // element has one floating reference to keep it alive
 *    gst_bin_add (GST_BIN (bin), element);
 *    // element has one non-floating reference owned by the container
 * </programlisting>
 * </informalexample>
 *
 * Another effect of this is, that calling gst_object_unref() on a bin object,
 * will also destoy all the #GstElement objects in it. The same is true for
 * calling gst_bin_remove().
 *
 * Special care has to be taken for all methods that gst_object_sink() an object
 * since if the caller of those functions had a floating reference to the object,
 * the object reference is now invalid.
 *
 * In contrast to #GObject instances, #GstObject adds a name property. The functions
 * gst_object_set_name() and gst_object_get_name() are used to set/get the name
 * of the object.
