Great! Thanks for your help... I'm now successfully talking to my stun server... Regarding NiceCandidate.username and NiceCandidate.password... Is it safe to assume that those strings are subject to the same size limit as the strings passed to nice_agent_set_remote_credentials() (I.E. the username and password have a max size of 256 bytes)? It's convenient if that is true because it means that a NiceCandidate can be serialized into a completely fixed length structure... BTW, what is best practice for generating the username and password pair? Should I just generate random strings for those? Perhaps a UUID? td <div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Aug 23, 2010 at 5:34 PM, Youness Alaoui <<a href="mailto:youness.alaoui@collabora.co.uk">youness.alaoui@collabora.co.uk</a>> wrote: <blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">FYI, You don't need everything from the structure, the 'turn' attribute is also internal and useless for you, same for priority. Have a look at the RFC on how to encode the SDP, it might help you understand how to 'serialize' the candidate : <a href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5245#section-4.3" target="_blank">http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5245#section-4.3</a> <div><div></div><div class="h5"> On 08/23/2010 08:06 PM, Youness Alaoui wrote: > No, that's used only internally, you don't need to read it or write it or > anything like that! > The documentation says "the underlying socket", I thought it would be pretty > clear... > > On 08/23/2010 08:04 PM, Tony Di Croce wrote: >> >> I have to serialize and transmit NiceCandidate objects from one peer to >> another...
