/**
 * SECTION:gstelementfactory
 * @short_description: Create GstElements from a factory
 * @see_also: #GstElement, #GstPlugin, #GstPluginFeature, #GstPadTemplate.
 *
 * #GstElementFactory is used to create instances of elements. A
 * GstElementfactory can be added to a #GstPlugin as it is also a
 * #GstPluginFeature.
 *
 * Use the gst_element_factory_find() and gst_element_factory_create()
 * functions to create element instances or use gst_element_factory_make() as a
 * convenient shortcut.
 *
 * The following code example shows you how to create a GstFileSrc element.
 *
 * <example>
 * <title>Using an element factory</title>
 * <programlisting language="c">
 *   #include &lt;gst/gst.h&gt;
 *   
 *   GstElement *src;
 *   GstElementFactory *srcfactory;
 *   
 *   gst_init (&amp;argc, &amp;argv);
 *   
 *   srcfactory = gst_element_factory_find ("filesrc");
 *   g_return_if_fail (srcfactory != NULL);
 *   src = gst_element_factory_create (srcfactory, "src");
 *   g_return_if_fail (src != NULL);
 *   ...
 * </programlisting>
 * </example>
