## Description

The NiceAgent is your main object when using libnice. It is the agent that will take care of everything relating to ICE. It will take care of discovering your local candidates and do connectivity checks to create a stream of data between you and your peer.

Example 1. Simple example on how to use libnice

       guint stream_id;
       gchar buffer[] = "hello world!";
       GSList *lcands = NULL;

       // Create a nice agent
       NiceAgent *agent = nice_agent_new (NULL, NICE_COMPATIBILITY_DRAFT19);

       // Connect the signals
       g_signal_connect (G_OBJECT (agent), "candidate-gathering-done",
                         G_CALLBACK (cb_candidate_gathering_done), NULL);
       g_signal_connect (G_OBJECT (agent), "component-state-changed",
                         G_CALLBACK (cb_component_state_changed), NULL);
       g_signal_connect (G_OBJECT (agent), "new-selected-pair",
                         G_CALLBACK (cb_new_selected_pair), NULL);

       // Create a new stream with one component and start gathering candidates
       stream_id = nice_agent_add_stream (agent, 1);
       nice_agent_gather_candidates (agent, stream_id);

       // Attach to the component to receive the data
       nice_agent_attach_recv (agent, stream_id, 1, NULL,
                              cb_nice_recv, NULL);

       // ... Wait until the signal candidate-gathering-done is fired ...
       lcands = nice_agent_get_local_candidates(agent, stream_id, 1);

       // ... Send local candidates to the peer and set the peer's remote candidates
       nice_agent_set_remote_candidates (agent, stream_id, 1, rcands);

       // ... Wait until the signal new-selected-pair is fired ...
       // Send our message!
       nice_agent_send (agent, stream_id, 1, sizeof(buffer), buffer);

       // Anything received will be received through the cb_nice_recv callback

       // Destroy the object
       g_object_unref(agent);

## Details

### NiceAgent

    typedef struct _NiceAgent NiceAgent;

The NiceAgent is the main GObject of the libnice library and represents the ICE agent.

### enum NiceComponentState

    {
      NICE_COMPONENT_STATE_DISCONNECTED,
      NICE_COMPONENT_STATE_GATHERING,
      NICE_COMPONENT_STATE_CONNECTING,
      NICE_COMPONENT_STATE_CONNECTED,
      NICE_COMPONENT_STATE_READY,
      NICE_COMPONENT_STATE_FAILED,
      NICE_COMPONENT_STATE_LAST
    } NiceComponentState;

An enum representing the state of a component.

See also: "component-state-changed"

`NICE_COMPONENT_STATE_DISCONNECTED` | No activity scheduled
`NICE_COMPONENT_STATE_GATHERING` | Gathering local candidates
`NICE_COMPONENT_STATE_CONNECTING` | Establishing connectivity
`NICE_COMPONENT_STATE_CONNECTED` | At least one working candidate pair
`NICE_COMPONENT_STATE_READY` | ICE concluded, candidate pair selection is now final
`NICE_COMPONENT_STATE_FAILED` | Connectivity checks have been completed, but connectivity was not established
`NICE_COMPONENT_STATE_LAST` | Dummy state

### enum NiceComponentType

    typedef enum
    {
      NICE_COMPONENT_TYPE_RTP = 1,
      NICE_COMPONENT_TYPE_RTCP = 2
    } NiceComponentType;

Convenience enum representing the type of a component for use as the component_id for RTP/RTCP usages.

Example 2. Example of use.

       nice_agent_send (agent, stream_id, NICE_COMPONENT_TYPE_RTP, len, buf);

`NICE_COMPONENT_TYPE_RTP` | RTP Component type
`NICE_COMPONENT_TYPE_RTCP` | RTCP Component type

### enum NiceProxyType

    typedef enum
    {
      NICE_PROXY_TYPE_NONE = 0,
      NICE_PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS5,
      NICE_PROXY_TYPE_HTTP,
      NICE_PROXY_TYPE_LAST = NICE_PROXY_TYPE_HTTP,
    } NiceProxyType;

An enum to specify which proxy type to use for relaying. Note that the proxies will only be used with TCP TURN relaying.

See also: "proxy-type"

`NICE_PROXY_TYPE_NONE` | Do not use a proxy
`NICE_PROXY_TYPE_SOCKS5` | Use a SOCKS5 proxy
`NICE_PROXY_TYPE_HTTP` | Use an HTTP proxy

      NICE_COMPATIBILITY_WLM2009,
      NICE_COMPATIBILITY_LAST = NICE_COMPATIBILITY_WLM2009
    } NiceCompatibility;

An enum to specify which compatible specifications the NiceAgent should use. Use with `nice_agent_new()`

`NICE_COMPATIBILITY_DRAFT19` | Use compatibility for ICE Draft 19 specs
`NICE_COMPATIBILITY_GOOGLE` | Use compatibility for Google Talk specs
`NICE_COMPATIBILITY_MSN` | Use compatibility for MSN Messenger specs
