19  * \brief Describes the codec algorithm interface to applications.
20  *
21  * This file describes the interface between an application and a
22  * video codec algorithm.
23  *
24  * An application instantiates a specific codec instance by using
25  * vpx_codec_dec_init() or vpx_codec_enc_init() and a pointer to the
26  * algorithm's interface structure:
27  *     <pre>
28  *     my_app.c:
29  *       extern vpx_codec_iface_t my_codec;
30  *       {
31  *           vpx_codec_ctx_t algo;
32  *           int threads = 4;
33  *           vpx_codec_dec_cfg_t cfg = { threads, 0, 0 };
34  *           res = vpx_codec_dec_init(&algo, &my_codec, &cfg, 0);
35  *       }
36  *     </pre>
37  *
38  * Once initialized, the instance is manged using other functions from
39  * the vpx_codec_* family.
