RRtpSession Class Reference

class RRtpSession

A handle to an RTP session.

This is the interface to the socket-level RTP service, and provides additional facilities such as header parsing, re-ordering out-of-order packets, demultiplexing multiple sources etc.

The class abstracts all RTP information going to/from a RTP socket, and its corresponding RTCP data.

Each RTP endpoint on a device needs its own RTP session.

Multiple hosts streaming to a port on this device correspond to different RRtpReceiveSource objects associated with the session.

The class behaviour assumes that an active scheduler has already been created and started; the class does not function correctly if not.

NewReceiveSourceLC()

IMPORT_C RRtpReceiveSourceNewReceiveSourceLC()

NewSendSourceL()

IMPORT_C RRtpSendSourceNewSendSourceL()

Creates a new send stream, and returns the send stream handle.

Only one send stream per session is permitted, which means that you must not call this function if the send stream has already been created.

As the send stream is an active object, it cannot handle request completion events until control returns to the active scheduler. Typically, clients will want to add event registrations before that.

The Code panics if the SendSource has alredy been opened.

The send stream handle.

This function may leave if memory is not enough.

PrivRegisterEventCallbackL(TUint, TRtpCallbackFunction, TAny *, TInt)

IMPORT_C voidPrivRegisterEventCallbackL(TUintaType,
TRtpCallbackFunctionaCallback,
TAny *aPtr,
TIntaParameter
)

The event manager contains a number of callback registrations, each of which binds a function and pointer (normally an object) to a particular kind of event. Registrations can be bound to all events on a stream.

If a function is registered for a particular event, it will be called when that event occurs. One callback function can be associated with more than 1 callback registration. Callback functions take a pointer argument which was supplied as part of the registration

Parameters

TUint aTypeEvent type
TRtpCallbackFunction aCallbackCallback object
TAny * aPtrPointer to data that needs to be passed to the callback function
TInt aParameterParameter to be passed to internal callback subsystem

PrivRegisterEventCallbackL(TUint, TRtpCallbackFunction, TAny *)

IMPORT_C voidPrivRegisterEventCallbackL(TUintaType,
TRtpCallbackFunctionaCallback,
TAny *aPtr
)

The event manager contains a number of callback registrations, each of which binds a function and pointer (normally an object) to a particular kind of event. Registrations can be bound to all events on a stream.

If a function is registered for a particular event, it will be called when that event occurs. One callback function can be associated with more than 1 callback registration. Callback functions take a pointer argument which was supplied as part of the registration

Parameters

TUint aTypeEvent type
TRtpCallbackFunction aCallbackCallback object
TAny * aPtrPointer to data that needs to be passed to the callback function

RTCPAutoSend()

IMPORT_C TBoolRTCPAutoSend()const

RRtpSession::SetRTCPAutoSend()

RegisterEventCallbackL(TRtpEventType, void(*)(T *, const TRtpEvent &), T *, TRtpOneShotness, TInt)

voidRegisterEventCallbackL(TRtpEventTypeaType,
void(*)(T *, const TRtpEvent &)aCallback,
T *aPtr,
TRtpOneShotnessaOneShot,
TIntaParameter
)[inline]

Registers a callback for the specified event.

Some compilers may not support templated member functions. A static version of this function is available that offers the same behaviour: RegisterEventCallbackL(RRtpSession,TRtpEventType,void (*aCallback)(T*, const TRtpEvent&),T*,TRtpOneShotness,TInt)

Parameters

TRtpEventType aTypeThe type of event.
void(*)(T *, const TRtpEvent &) aCallbackThe callback function. The function is templated, and is prototyped to take a pointer to an object of the template type and a const reference to a TRtpEvent. The function returns void.
T * aPtrA pointer that is passed to the callback function when that function is called.
TRtpOneShotness aOneShotIndicates whether the callback function is only called once, or can be called more than once.
TInt aParameterA parameter to be passed to the registration function. The meaning of this depends entirely on the event type. The parameter is optional - the other overload of this function is available for registrations that don't need to pass a parameter.

RegisterEventCallbackL(TRtpEventType, void(*)(T *, const TRtpEvent &), T *, TRtpOneShotness)

voidRegisterEventCallbackL(TRtpEventTypeaType,
void(*)(T *, const TRtpEvent &)aCallback,
T *aPtr,
TRtpOneShotnessaOneShot = ERtpNotOneShot
)[inline]

Registers a callback for the specified event.

Some compilers may not support templated member functions. A static version of this function is available that offers the same behaviour: RegisterEventCallbackL(RRtpSession,TRtpEventType,void (*aCallback)(T*, const TRtpEvent&),T*,TRtpOneShotness)

Parameters

TRtpEventType aTypeThe type of event.
void(*)(T *, const TRtpEvent &) aCallbackThe callback function. The function is templated, and is prototyped to take a pointer to an object of the template type and a const reference to a TRtpEvent. The function returns void.
T * aPtrA pointer that is passed to the callback function when that function is called.
TRtpOneShotness aOneShot = ERtpNotOneShotIndicates whether the callback function is only called once, or can be called more than once. If not specified, the default is to allow the callback function to be called more than once.

RtcpSocket()

IMPORT_C RSocket *RtcpSocket()

Gets a handle to the RTCP socket; it provides a direct access to the functionality of RTCP socket.

The RTCP socket for the current session

RtcpStatistics(TUint32, TRtcpStatistics &)

IMPORT_C TIntRtcpStatistics(TUint32aSsrc,
TRtcpStatistics &aRtcpStatistics
)

Gets the remote RTCP Statistics for the current RTP session

SendAPPL(const TDesC8 &, const TDesC8 &, TUint8)

IMPORT_C voidSendAPPL(const TDesC8 &aName,
const TDesC8 &aAppData =  KNullDesC8 ,
TUint8aSubType = 0
)

Sends an APP (Application Defined) RTCP Packet.

The packet is sent immediately.

If used with RTCP auto-send, the function disrupts the auto-send intervals. Note however that Symbian reserves the right to fix this.

Parameters

const TDesC8 & aName
const TDesC8 & aAppData =  KNullDesC8
TUint8 aSubType = 0

SendDataL(TBool, const TDesC8 &, TRequestStatus &)

IMPORT_C voidSendDataL(TBoolaSocketType,
const TDesC8 &aData,
TRequestStatus &aStatus
)

Send a non-RTP (control) data packet asynchronously

Parameters

TBool aSocketTypeSocketType that tells whether non RTP data has to go through RTP or RTCP socket
const TDesC8 & aDataNon RTP data that has to be sent
TRequestStatus & aStatusTells whether the data has been sent successfully

SendRTCPPacketL(TDesC8 &)

IMPORT_C voidSendRTCPPacketL(TDesC8 &aPacket)

Sends an RTCP packet now.

Calling this function doesn't make much sense if auto-send is on, as it will result in packets being sent at rather incoherent intervals.

Example:

If every report has go with CNAME,LOC and PRIV... then set flags as fallows..

SDES Flags: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 1 0 0 0 1 0 0 1

TRtpSendPacketType

Parameters

TDesC8 & aPacket

SendSource()

IMPORT_C RRtpSendSourceSendSource()

Gets the handle to the send stream object associated with this session.

The send stream object is the one created in a previous call to NewSendSourceL(). If the send stream object has not been created, then the returned handle will refer to a closed send stream.

The handle to the send stream object.

RRtpSendSource NewSendSourceL()

SetBandwidth(TUint)

IMPORT_C voidSetBandwidth(TUintaBandwidth)

Sets the estimated bandwidth used by the session.

This is used to decide when to send RTCP status packets. The default value is read from a resource file and should be a reasonably sensible default based on the maximum bandwidth of the handset.

Parameters

TUint aBandwidthThe bandwidth in bps.

SetMaxRXSize(TInt)

IMPORT_C voidSetMaxRXSize(TIntaMaxRXSize)

Parameters

TInt aMaxRXSize

SetPRIVL(const TDesC8 &, const TDesC8 &)

KErrTooBig if the length of the aValue and aPrefix combined is more than KMaxSdesItemLength(=255) KErrNone if the operation is successful

Parameters

const TDesC8 & aPrefixThe value identfying the RTCP SDES item.
const TDesC8 & aValueThe SDES item data.

SetPrePostProcessingRegisterCallback(MPrePostProcessingCallback *)

IMPORT_C voidSetPrePostProcessingRegisterCallback(MPrePostProcessingCallback *aPrePostProcessingCallback)

Pre and Post processing function for RTP and RTCP packets

If a function is registered for a particular event, it will be called when that event occurs. One callback function can be associated with more than 1 callback registration. Callback functions take a pointer argument which was supplied as part of the registration

Parameters

MPrePostProcessingCallback * aPrePostProcessingCallback

SetRTCPAutoSend(TBool)

IMPORT_C voidSetRTCPAutoSend(TBoolaAutoSend)

Enables or disables the automatic sending of RTCP SR (Sender Report), RR (Receiver Report), and SDES (Source Description) packets.

Note that if automatic sending is not enabled and RTCP sending is required, then explicit calls to SendRTCPPacketL() will be required.

RRtpSession::SendRTCPPacketL()

Parameters

TBool aAutoSendETrue, if RTCP packets need to be send automatically EFalse otherwise.

SetRTPTimeConversion(TUint, TUint)

IMPORT_C voidSetRTPTimeConversion(TUintaNow,
TUintaConversion
)

Supplies information about the profile-specific RTP timestamps.

This is used to generate the RTP timestamps in RTCP packets. It is not used to generate timestamps in RTP packets as they must accurately relate to the time of the sample.

Parameters

TUint aNowThe time now in RTP format
TUint aConversionThe number of nanoseconds per RTP timer tick.

SetRemoteAddress(const TSockAddr &)

IMPORT_C voidSetRemoteAddress(const TSockAddr &aRemoteAddr)

SetRemoteRtcpPort(TUint)

IMPORT_C voidSetRemoteRtcpPort(TUintaPort)

Sets the remote RTCP port for the current active RTP session

Parameters

TUint aPort

SetRtcpInterval(TTimeIntervalMicroSeconds32 &)

IMPORT_C voidSetRtcpInterval(TTimeIntervalMicroSeconds32 &aInterval)

Sets the RTCP Auto Send interval. This disables the RFC based calculation of RTCP intervals. To re-enable auto calculation, set the interval to zero.

Parameters

TTimeIntervalMicroSeconds32 & aIntervalTime interval after which an RTCP auto-send will take place

SetRtpStreamParameters(TInt, TInt, TInt)

IMPORT_C voidSetRtpStreamParameters(TIntaMinSequential,
TIntaMaxMisorder,
TIntaMaxDropout
)

Sets the number of sequential packets that must be received before a stream is considered good.

Sets the maximum number of dropped packets to be considered a dropout, as opposed to an ended and restarted stream.

Sets the maximum number of packets by which a packet can be delayed before it is considered dropped.

The session will be 'restarted', i.e. it resets the sequence number sequence and resets all RTCP statistics.

Parameters

TInt aMinSequentialThe number of sequential packets.
TInt aMaxMisorderThe maximum number of packets.
TInt aMaxDropoutThe number of sequential packets.

SetSDESL(TInt, const TDesC8 &)

const TDesC8 &aValue
)

Sets the data associated with the specified RTCP SDES (Source Description) item for sending in the next SDES packet only.

The function Leaves if duplicate values are set for the same CNAME.

The SDES Items set by this API is valid only till the stack sends the next RTCP Packet. The list of items(except CNAME and NONE) is flushed after every RTCP report is sent

Note a that the PRIV (Private Extensions) SDES item is not supported by this mechanism.

NOTE - This call cannot be used to set a different CNAME for this session. The default CNAME is send with every SDES packets.

KErrTooBig if the length of the aValue is more than KMaxSdesItemLength(=255) KErrNone if the operation is successful
