[Live-devel] Destroying RTSPClientSession objects

A "RTSPClientSession" object will also get terminated if the client 
times out (due to inactivity - i.e., no RTSP commands or RTCP "RR" 
packets received within "reclamationTestSeconds" seconds).  It will 
also terminate if its read from the TCP socket fails (for whatever 
reason).

If your server code is running in its own process - i.e., as an 
application - then you can just kill the process, and the OS will 
automatically reclaim all memory, sockets etc. that the server was 
using.
