You can't. Of course, you can subclass GstBin, override the class
handler in the subclass and avoid chaining to the original hanlder in
the new handler if you don't want it to be invoked.
Don't do that.
If there is a class closure then the class implementation expects it to
be invoked. If it is not invoked when it should be the object can get
into an inconsistent state because something that was assumed to happen
did not happen.
It might seem work now but it can break any time.
You can never know.
So, instead the questions are:
- what precise action of the class handler you need to prevent?
- why?
- if because it results in something invoked in your code you want to
prevent, you can prevent that in your code.
- if the action is necessary for the object to maintain its internal
state then you simply cannot avoid it.
- if it is not strictly necessary or could be performed differently
then ask for a gstreamer ehnancement that enable to control how or
whether it is done.
