    "content": "V2 of LibCamera controls, now with extracted Value class and a long list of\nundocumented todos.\n\nThis series is based upon Jacopo's v5 of V4L2Controls.\n\n - ControlValue class is now in it's own reusable Value class.\n   This should be re-usable somewhat like a QT QVariant ...\n\n - ControlList\n   Controls are now simply an association of a ControlInfo (or ID) and a Value.\n   The ControlList is a custom wrapper of an unordered_map to pass these around.\n\n\nKnown todos / issues:\n - I still need to look at querying ControlInfo attributes\n\n - Currently I think a ControlInfo structure is created everytime an entry is\n   added to the ControlList, and this likely isn't as efficient as I'd like\n - Min/Max values in ControlInfo are currently unset and un-used - but that\n   should change.\n\n - I feel like it would be nice to have a better representation of a single\n   control, rather than just a ControlInfo,Value pair. I have a custom Control\n   class to experiment with but that is not utilsed by this series.\n   I'm not sure how I'd change the iterators to use this anyway yet.\n\n - This series does not aim to represent MetaData as such yet. That might be\n   similar and might be possible to use a 'ControlList' but it's not clear yet.\n\n - As yet there is not a facility to obtain a list of all controls from the\n   V4L2 layer, and as such I have not yet implemented any means of finding\n   a complete set of controls aavilable to a particular Camera.\n\n \n \nKieran Bingham (9):\n  libcamera: Value: Provide abstract value class\n  libcamera: test: Add Value tests\n  libcamera: controls: Introduce Control structures\n  libcamera: test: Add ControlInfo tests\n  libcamera: Implement a ControlList\n  libcamera: request: Add a ControlList\n  libcamera: test: Add ControlList tests\n  [PoC] UVCPipelineHandler: Set Controls\n  [PoC] QCam: Control demo: A SineWave Brightness\n\n include/libcamera/controls.h        |  99 ++++++++++\n include/libcamera/meson.build       |   2 +\n include/libcamera/request.h         |   3 +\n include/libcamera/value.h           |  63 ++++++\n src/libcamera/controls.cpp          | 288 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++\n src/libcamera/meson.build           |   2 +\n src/libcamera/pipeline/uvcvideo.cpp |  43 ++++-\n src/libcamera/request.cpp           |  10 +\n src/libcamera/value.cpp             | 226 ++++++++++++++++++++++\n src/qcam/main_window.cpp            |  16 ++\n test/controls.cpp                   | 139 ++++++++++++++\n test/meson.build                    |   2 +\n test/value.cpp                      |  82 ++++++++\n 13 files changed, 974 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)\n create mode 100644 include/libcamera/controls.h\n create mode 100644 include/libcamera/value.h\n create mode 100644 src/libcamera/controls.cpp\n create mode 100644 src/libcamera/value.cpp\n create mode 100644 test/controls.cpp\n create mode 100644 test/value.cpp"
