g_option_context_parse with -verbose or -messages

[HtGst]

Hi

Passing –verbose or –messages as cli arguments to an app, which uses g_option_context_parse to parse arguments, i.e.,

…

    if (!g_option_context_parse(ctx, &argc, &argv, &err)) {

         g_printerr("Failed to initialize: %s\n", err->message);

         g_error_free(err);

         return 1;

    }

…

Generates the following error:

Failed to initialize: Unknown option –messages

(Similar thing with –v or –m)

--gst-debug or--gst-plugin-path are fine, though.

Any thoughts?

Cheers,

--gst-debug and --gst-plugin-path are options that are handled by
GStreamer, --verbose or --messages are not options that GStreamer
handles, your app will have to add/implement those (as gst-launch
does).
