Struct AVFragmentedAsset 

pub struct AVFragmentedAsset { /* private fields */ }

Available on crate feature AVAsset only.

A subclass of AVURLAsset that represents media resources that can be extended in total duration without modifying previously existing data structures.

Such media resources include QuickTime movie files and MPEG-4 files that indicate, via an ‘mvex’ box in their ‘moov’ box, that they accommodate additional fragments. Media resources of other types may also be supported. To check whether a given instance of AVFragmentedAsset can be used to monitor the addition of fragments, check the value of the AVURLAsset property canContainFragments.

An AVFragmentedAsset is capable of changing the values of certain of its properties and those of its tracks, while an operation that appends fragments to the underlying media resource in in progress, if the AVFragmentedAsset is associated with an instance of AVFragmentedAssetMinder.

While associated with an AVFragmentedAssetMinder, AVFragmentedAsset posts AVAssetDurationDidChangeNotification whenever new fragments are detected, as appropriate. It may also post AVAssetContainsFragmentsDidChangeNotification and AVAssetWasDefragmentedNotification, as discussed in documentation of those notifications. Subclasses of this type that are used from Swift must fulfill the requirements of a Sendable type.

pub unsafe fn preferredMediaSelection(&self) -> Retained<AVMediaSelection>

Available on crate feature AVMediaSelection only.

Provides an instance of AVMediaSelection with default selections for each of the receiver’s media selection groups.

pub unsafe fn allMediaSelections(&self) -> Retained<NSArray<AVMediaSelection>>

Available on crate feature AVMediaSelection only.

Provides an array of all permutations of AVMediaSelection for this asset.

pub unsafe fn hasProtectedContent(&self) -> bool

Indicates whether or not the asset has protected content.

Assets containing protected content may not be playable without successful authorization, even if the value of the “playable” property is YES. See the properties in the AVAssetUsability category for details on how such an asset may be used. On macOS, clients can use the interfaces in AVPlayerItemProtectedContentAdditions.h to request authorization to play the asset.

pub unsafe fn canContainFragments(&self) -> bool

Indicates whether the asset is capable of being extended by fragments.

For QuickTime movie files and MPEG-4 files, the value of canContainFragments is YES if an ‘mvex’ box is present in the ‘moov’ box. For those types, the ‘mvex’ box signals the possible presence of later ‘moof’ boxes.

pub unsafe fn containsFragments(&self) -> bool

Indicates whether the asset is extended by at least one fragment.

For QuickTime movie files and MPEG-4 files, the value of this property is YES if canContainFragments is YES and at least one ‘moof’ box is present after the ‘moov’ box.

pub unsafe fn overallDurationHint(&self) -> CMTime

Available on crate feature objc2-core-media only.

Indicates the total duration of fragments that either exist now or may be appended in the future in order to extend the duration of the asset.

For QuickTime movie files and MPEG-4 files, the value of this property is obtained from the ‘mehd’ box of the ‘mvex’ box, if present. If no total fragment duration hint is available, the value of this property is kCMTimeInvalid.

pub unsafe fn isPlayable(&self) -> bool

Indicates whether an AVPlayer can play the contents of the asset in a manner that meets user expectations.

A client can attempt playback when playable is NO, this however may lead to a substandard playback experience.

pub unsafe fn isExportable(&self) -> bool

Indicates whether an AVAssetExportSession can be used with the receiver for export

pub unsafe fn isReadable(&self) -> bool

Indicates whether an AVAssetReader can be used with the receiver for extracting media data

pub unsafe fn isComposable(&self) -> bool

Indicates whether the receiver can be used to build an AVMutableComposition

pub unsafe fn isCompatibleWithSavedPhotosAlbum(&self) -> bool

Indicates whether the receiver can be written to the saved photos album

pub unsafe fn isCompatibleWithAirPlayVideo(&self) -> bool

Indicates whether the asset is compatible with AirPlay Video.

YES if an AVPlayerItem initialized with the receiver can be played by an external device via AirPlay Video.

pub unsafe fn unusedTrackID(&self) -> CMPersistentTrackID

👎Deprecated: Use findUnusedTrackIDWithCompletionHandler: instead

Available on crate features AVVideoComposition and objc2-core-media only.

pub unsafe fn findUnusedTrackIDWithCompletionHandler( &self, completion_handler: &DynBlock<dyn Fn(CMPersistentTrackID, *mut NSError)>, )

Available on crate features AVVideoComposition and block2 and objc2-core-media only.

Loads a track ID that will not collide with any existing track

• Parameter completionHandler: A block that is invoked when loading is complete, vending the track ID or an error.

Safety

completion_handler block must be sendable.

Methods from Deref<Target = NSObject>

pub fn doesNotRecognizeSelector(&self, sel: Sel) -> !

Handle messages the object doesn’t recognize.

See Apple’s documentation for details.

Methods from Deref<Target = AnyObject>

pub fn class(&self) -> &'static AnyClass

Dynamically find the class of this object.

Panics

May panic if the object is invalid (which may be the case for objects returned from unavailable init/new methods).

Example

Check that an instance of NSObject has the precise class NSObject.

use objc2::ClassType;
use objc2::runtime::NSObject;

let obj = NSObject::new();
assert_eq!(obj.class(), NSObject::class());

pub unsafe fn get_ivar<T>(&self, name: &str) -> &T

where T: Encode,

👎Deprecated: this is difficult to use correctly, use Ivar::load instead.

Use Ivar::load instead.

Safety

The object must have an instance variable with the given name, and it must be of type T.

See Ivar::load_ptr for details surrounding this.

pub fn downcast_ref<T>(&self) -> Option<&T>

where T: DowncastTarget,

Attempt to downcast the object to a class of type T.

This is the reference-variant. Use Retained::downcast if you want to convert a retained object to another type.

Mutable classes

Some classes have immutable and mutable variants, such as NSString and NSMutableString.

When some Objective-C API signature says it gives you an immutable class, it generally expects you to not mutate that, even though it may technically be mutable “under the hood”.

So using this method to convert a NSString to a NSMutableString, while not unsound, is generally frowned upon unless you created the string yourself, or the API explicitly documents the string to be mutable.

See Apple’s documentation on mutability and on isKindOfClass: for more details.

Generic classes

Objective-C generics are called “lightweight generics”, and that’s because they aren’t exposed in the runtime. This makes it impossible to safely downcast to generic collections, so this is disallowed by this method.

You can, however, safely downcast to generic collections where all the type-parameters are AnyObject.

Panics

This works internally by calling isKindOfClass:. That means that the object must have the instance method of that name, and an exception will be thrown (if CoreFoundation is linked) or the process will abort if that is not the case. In the vast majority of cases, you don’t need to worry about this, since both root objects NSObject and NSProxy implement this method.

Examples

Cast an NSString back and forth from NSObject.

use objc2::rc::Retained;
use objc2_foundation::{NSObject, NSString};

let obj: Retained<NSObject> = NSString::new().into_super();
let string = obj.downcast_ref::<NSString>().unwrap();
// Or with `downcast`, if we do not need the object afterwards
let string = obj.downcast::<NSString>().unwrap();

Try (and fail) to cast an NSObject to an NSString.

use objc2_foundation::{NSObject, NSString};

let obj = NSObject::new();
assert!(obj.downcast_ref::<NSString>().is_none());

Try to cast to an array of strings.

use objc2_foundation::{NSArray, NSObject, NSString};

let arr = NSArray::from_retained_slice(&[NSObject::new()]);
// This is invalid and doesn't type check.
let arr = arr.downcast_ref::<NSArray<NSString>>();

This fails to compile, since it would require enumerating over the array to ensure that each element is of the desired type, which is a performance pitfall.

Downcast when processing each element instead.

use objc2_foundation::{NSArray, NSObject, NSString};

let arr = NSArray::from_retained_slice(&[NSObject::new()]);

for elem in arr {
    if let Some(data) = elem.downcast_ref::<NSString>() {
        // handle `data`
    }
}
