/**
@publishedAll
@released

The interface to an audio stream player passing raw audio data from the audio hardware to specified buffers.

This class enables MMF clients to:

Stream raw audio data from the audio hardware to specified buffers.

Specify the priority of the audio stream in relation to other clients that may request to use the same audio hardware.

Set the sample rate and  the number of channels after successfully opening the stream. It is not possible to
change these values once streaming has started.

Change the gain and balance before or while streaming is in progress. Gain and balance settings take effect immediately.


The API supports callbacks from the server to notify the client:

MaiscOpenComplete() will be called when the audio streaming object is open and ready to stream data back to the
user as a result of a previous call to Open().

MaiscBufferCopied() will be called multiple times while the FIFO (queued via ReadL()) is emptied.
Note: Each buffer will be flagged with KErrAbort if received after Stop() on is called. MaiscRecordComplete is called
once all remaining buffers have been read.


MaiscRecordComplete() is called after Stop() has been called. aError - KErrAbort if MaiscRecordComplete called
as a result of a call to Stop().

Users of object CMdaAudioInputStream should ensure that implementation of the callback methods MaiscOpenComplete,MaiscBufferCopied 
and MaiscRecordComplete in class MMdaAudioInputStreamCallback do not delete the object,otherwise a Kern-Exec 3 would occur during callback.

	@param  aPriority
	        The Priority Value - this client's relative priority. This is a value between EMdaPriorityMin and

	vary between different phones. Portable applications are advised not to assume any specific behaviour.
