These functions return a handle to an <codeph>RRtpSendPacket</codeph> object. </p> <codeblock id="GUID-1A5771D1-9794-5307-AEE1-6398BE5DFBB2" xml:space="preserve">RRtpSendPacket NewSendPacketL(TInt aPayloadSize=0, TInt aHeaderExtensionSize=KRtpNoExtension);</codeblock> <p>Set the default payload type and payload size before you create the new send packet using <codeph>SetPayloadType()</codeph> and <codeph>SetDefaultPayloadSize()</codeph> respectively. </p> <p>Set the header extension size to multiples of 4-byte words this means the fixed header must be followed by exactly one header extension. The default value is <codeph>KRtpNoExtension</codeph>. 0 is an acceptable value. </p> <p> <codeph>RRtpSendSource</codeph> allows you to set any of the following for an RTP packet to be sent: </p> <p> <codeph>SetAlignment</codeph>: Aligns the header data to multiples of the set padding value. The values can range within 1-255. 1 is the default value, which means not padded. </p> <p> <codeph>SetDefaultPayloadSize</codeph>: Sets the default payload size for the RTP packet that is to be sent. This is usually set before creating a new packet. </p> <p> <codeph>SetPayloadType</codeph>: Sets the default payload type for the RTP packet that is to be sent. This is usually set before creating a new packet. </p> <p>Call <codeph>ByeL</codeph> to send the BYE packet to indicate that one or more sources are no longer active (example when a participant wants to leave). </p> <p>You can stop sending a packet even after making a send request. Call <codeph>RRtpSendSource::Cancel()</codeph> to cancel the outstanding send request on the send stream. </p> </section> <section><title>Sending the packet</title> <p>Call <codeph>RRtpSendPacket::Send()</codeph> to send the RTP packet. The packet is considered to be sent only when an <codeph>ERtpSendSucceeded</codeph> event is received from the send stream. If a failure occurs, an <codeph>ERtpSendFailed</codeph> event is received. </p> <p> <b>Note</b>: Before sending an RTP packet you must set the bandwidth for the RTP session. The following code snippet shows how to set the bandwidth for an RTP session. </p> <codeblock id="GUID-6E2043B8-8354-5DAA-B174-9CF54A806EE1" xml:space="preserve">IMPORT_C void SetBandwidth(TUint aBandwidth) </codeblock> </section> <section><title>Closing the packet</title> <p>Once the packet has been sent, call <codeph>RRtpSendPacket::Close()</codeph> to close the RTP packet. </p> </section> <section><title>Closing the send stream</title> <p>Call <codeph>RRtpSendSource::Close()</codeph> to close the send stream. The send stream cannot be closed if an event is currently being handled by a call back function. </p> </section> <section><title>See also</title> <p> <xref href="GUID-5287A403-1094-5682-A443-A6C2A04A1F23.dita">Creating and Managing an RTP session</xref>  </p> </section> </conbody></concept>
