Superclasses: :class:`~gi.repository.Gst.TaskPool`, :class:`~gi.repository.Gst.Object`, :class:`~gi.repository.GObject.InitiallyUnowned`, :class:`~gi.repository.GObject.Object`





The :obj:`~gi.repository.Gst.SharedTaskPool` object.


Constructors
------------

.. rst-class:: interim-class

.. class:: SharedTaskPool
   :no-index:


   .. classmethod:: new() -> ~gi.repository.Gst.TaskPool

      Create a new shared task pool. The shared task pool will queue tasks on
      a maximum number of threads, 1 by default.

      Do not use a :obj:`~gi.repository.Gst.SharedTaskPool` to manage potentially inter-dependent tasks such
      as pad tasks, as having one task waiting on another to return before returning
      would cause obvious deadlocks if they happen to share the same thread.

Methods

   .. method:: get_max_threads() -> int

      


      .. versionadded:: 1.20








   .. method:: set_max_threads(max_threads: int) -> None

      Update the maximal number of threads the ``pool`` may spawn. When
      the maximal number of threads is reduced, existing threads are not
      immediately shut down, see :func:`~gi.repository.GLib.ThreadPool.set_max_threads`.

      Setting ``max_threads`` to 0 effectively freezes the pool.


      .. versionadded:: 1.20





      :param max_threads: Maximum number of threads to spawn.
