While we are creating objects on the monitor connection, pause the policy connection until we have completed a roundtrip and the global id is bound to the new object. This way, when we resume the policy connection, we can always find the newly created and bound object. Without the pause, it's possible that we receive the new global on the policy connection before we got the bind reply on the monitor connection and then we would end up with 2 proxies that are not linked together correctly. Fixes #204 |

PipeWire
PipeWire is a server and user space API to deal with multimedia pipelines. This includes:
- Making available sources of video (such as from a capture devices or application provided streams) and multiplexing this with clients.
- Accessing sources of video for consumption.
- Generating graphs for audio and video processing.
Nodes in the graph can be implemented as separate processes, communicating with sockets and exchanging multimedia content using fd passing.
Building
Pipewire uses the Meson and Ninja build system to compile. You can run it with:
$ meson build
$ cd build
$ ninja
You can see the available meson options in meson_options.txt file.
If you're not familiar with these tools, the included autogen.sh script will
automatically run the correct meson/ninja commands, and output a Makefile.
It follows that there are two methods to build Pipewire, however both rely
on Meson and Ninja to actually perform the compilation:
$ ./autogen.sh
$ make
Running
If you want to run PipeWire without installing it on your system, there is a script that you can run. This puts you in an environment in which PipeWire can be run from the build directory, and ALSA, PulseAudio and JACK applications will use the PipeWire emulation libraries automatically in this environment. You can get into this environment with:
$ ./pw-uninstalled.sh
