[Live-devel] API's unavailable after version update

[Ross Finlayson]

> I have inherited legacy code and have been tasked with fixing the bugs after the Live555 version update to May 2014 release. I downloaded the source code and compiled it to work with the existing code. Expectedly our code is breaking where it is calling the methods on Live555. For example one of the error is “'playMediaSession' : is not a member of 'RTSPClient'”.

It seems that your application code is using the old 'synchronous' RTSP client interface, which has been obsolete for more than 4 years (and completely unavailable for more than 1 year).  This change was announced numerous times on this mailing list, so it's unfortunate that it has taken you this long to join this mailing list.


> Is there any documentation available which can help me in firstly understanding what a particular method is doing and secondly with which new method the older one is replaced with.

The Doxygen web page for the "RTSPClient" interface is
	http://www.live555.com/liveMedia/doxygen/html/classRTSPClient.html
Note also the "RTSPClient.hh" file itself - especially the comments in the file:
	http://www.live555.com/liveMedia/doxygen/html/RTSPClient_8hh-source.html

I suggest also that you look at the code for the "testRTSPClient" demo application (in the "testProgs" directory).


>  Also, since I am not a C++ guy and the existing application creates a C++ wrapper so that the assembly is available for .net, are there any samples anywhere which can help me with creating/understanding the .net wrapper

Sorry, but that's not our code.
