<h1>StreamInterface Class Reference</h1>
<code>from PyKDE4.phonon import *</code>
<p>
Namespace: <a href="../phonon/Phonon.html">Phonon</a><br />
<h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<dl class="abstract" compact><dt><b>Abstract class:</b></dt>
<dd>This class can be used as a base class for new classes, but can not be instantiated directly.</dd></dl>
<p>\class StreamInterface streaminterface.h phonon/StreamInterface
Backend interface to handle media streams (AbstractMediaStream).
</p>
<p>
All functions relay their calls to the AbstractMediaStream using invokeMethod on the
AbstractMediaStream's QMetaObject. This means that every function call will
actually be executed in the thread context of the AbstractMediaStream (which
usually is a thread Phonon also lives in, could however also be another one).
This protectes the AbstractMediaStream against calls from different threads,
such as a callback thread.
This is very important as most IO implementations are by default not
thread-safe.
</p>
<p>
This protection is only established in one direction though, meaning that a
backend implementation of this interface must be made thread-safe at all costs
as it can get called from any thread.
</p>
