Detailed Description

       A class of objects representing remote participants (RTP applications) in a multimedia
       session.

       Any RTP socket/queue class that directly or indirectly inherits from QueueRTCPManager (and
       hence has RTCP support) will represent participants from which any RTP or RTCP packet has
       been received through a Participant object. These Participant objects are entities such as
       end systems (user applications, monitors, etc), RTP mixers and RTP translators.

       Participant objects are identified by a CNAME and provide access to all known data about
       the source of RTP/RTCP packets, such as the CNAME and any other SDES item. Each
       participant object is related to one or more synchronization objects (

       See Also:
           SyncSource).

       If an RTP application based on ccRTP receives packets from itself (for instance, it is
       included in the destination list), there will be a Participant object that corresponds to
       the 'local participant' (RTPApplication) object.

Member Function Documentation

   const std::string& Participant::getPRIVPrefix () const [inline]
       Get the prefix value for the PRIV SDES item.

       Returns:
           PRIV SDES item prefix as a string.

       Return values:
           empty string when no PRIV SDES item has been received from this source.

   const std::string& Participant::getSDESItem (SDESItemTypetype) const [inline]
       Get the value of an SDES item. For instance, getSDESItem(SDESItemTypeCNAME), return the
       CNAME of this Participant.

       Parameters:
           type type of SDES item to get value of.

       Returns:
           value of the SDES item as a string.

       Return values:
           empty string when the value is not known (no RTCP packet with the requested SDES item
           has been received from this source).

       Examples:
           ccrtptest.cpp, and rtplisten.cpp.
