What parts of my plugin can break gst-inspect?

[bromeara]

I am wondering what parts of my plugin would have an effect on gst-inspect so I can start debugging there.

How does gst-inspect work?

Would my plugin's pad, start/stop functions, get/set_caps, or create functions have an effect on gst-inspect?

Thanks

From my experience it is normally linking issues and missing libraries that break gst-inspect.

Try removing the registry cache:
rm .cache/gstreamer-1.0/registry.x86_64.bin
and run gst-inspect again, if you are lucky it will tell you what is wrong

Otherwise I had also experienced issues when there was a naming scheme change in 1.14: https://github.com/alumae/gst-kaldi-nnet2-online/issues/67
