[Live-devel] New LIVE555 version, with two new classes

[Ross Finlayson]

The latest version of the "LIVE555 Streaming Media" code contains two 
new classes that developers might find useful:

1/ "TCPStreamSink", which encapsulates a writable TCP socket.  Being 
a "MediaSink", you can call "startPlaying()" on it, to stream from a 
"FramedSource" to a TCP socket.  This class could be used to 
implement a HTTP server, for example, or simply a "nc"-like utility 
to stream data to a remote location.

2/ "ByteStreamMemoryBufferSource", which encapsulates a (static) 
memory buffer that's used as a byte stream data source.  I.e., you 
can use a memory buffer as a data source, as if it were a file. 
(Note, however, that the memory buffer must be static - i.e., 
unchanging - so you can't use this class to encapsulate an encoder. 
For that, you would need to write your own class (perhaps based on 
the "DeviceSource" code).)
