## Detailed Description

The `IRtcConnection` class.

You can use this class for managing the connection between your app and an Agora Channel.

Once connected, your app gets an `AgoraLocalUser` object for publishing and subscribing to media streams in the Agora Channel.

Connecting to a channel is done asynchronously, and your app can listen for the connection states or events through `IRtcConnectionObserver`. `IRtcConnection` also monitors remote users in the channel. The SDK notifies your app when a remote user joins or leaves the channel.

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ connect() [1/2]

virtual int agora::rtc::IRtcConnection::connect | ( | const char * | token,
|  | const char * | channelId,
|  | const char * | info,
|  | user_id_t | userId,
|  | aosl_ref_t | ares = `AOSL_REF_INVALID`
| ) |  |
| pure virtual

Connects to an Agora channel.

When the method call succeeds, the connection state changes from `CONNECTION_STATE_DISCONNECTED(1)` to `CONNECTION_STATE_CONNECTING(2)`.

Depending on the whether the connection succeeds or not, the connection state changes to either `CONNECTION_STATE_CONNECTED(3)` or `CONNECTION_STATE_FAILED(5)`. The SDK also triggers `onConnected` or `onDisconnected` to notify you of the state change.

Parameters

  token | The app ID.
  channelId | The channel name. It must be in the string format and not exceed 64 bytes in length. Supported character scopes are: All lowercase English letters: a to z. All uppercase English letters: A to Z. All numeric characters: 0 to 9. The space character. Punctuation characters and other symbols, including: "!", "#", "$", "%", "&", "(", ")", "+", "-", ":", ";", "<", "=", ".", ">", "?", "@", "[", "]", "^", "_", " {", "}", "|", "~", ","
  userId | The ID of the local user. If you do not specify a user ID or set `userId` as `null`, the SDK returns a user ID in the onConnected callback. Your app must record and maintain the `userId` since the SDK does not do so.

Returns
  - 0: Success.
  - < 0: Failure.
    - -2(ERR_INVALID_ARGUMENT): The argument that you pass is invalid.
    - -8(ERR_INVALID_STATE): The current connection state is not CONNECTION_STATE_DISCONNECTED(1).

## ◆ connect() [2/2]

virtual int agora::rtc::IRtcConnection::connect | ( | const TConnectSettings & | settings,
|  | aosl_ref_t | ares = `AOSL_REF_INVALID`
| ) |  |
| pure virtual

Connects to an Agora channel.

When the method call succeeds, the connection state changes from `CONNECTION_STATE_DISCONNECTED(1)` to `CONNECTION_STATE_CONNECTING(2)`.

Depending on the whether the connection succeeds or not, the connection state changes to either `CONNECTION_STATE_CONNECTED(3)` or `CONNECTION_STATE_FAILED(5)`. The SDK also triggers `onConnected` or `onDisconnected` to notify you of the state change.

Parameters

  settings | The settings of connecting.

## ◆ disconnect()

virtual int agora::rtc::IRtcConnection::disconnect | ( | aosl_ref_t | ares = `AOSL_REF_INVALID` | ) |
| pure virtual

Disconnects from the Agora channel.

Once your app successful disconnects from the channel, the connection state changes to `CONNECTION_STATE_DISCONNECTED(1)`. You are also notified with the callback onDisconnected.

Returns
  - 0: Success.
  - < 0: Failure.

## ◆ startLastmileProbeTest()

virtual int agora::rtc::IRtcConnection::startLastmileProbeTest | ( | const LastmileProbeConfig & | config,
|  | aosl_ref_t | ares = `AOSL_REF_INVALID`
| ) |  |
| pure virtual

Starts the last-mile network probe test.

Call this method before connecting to the channel to get the uplink and downlink last-mile network statistics, including the bandwidth, packet loss, jitter, and round-trip time (RTT).

After you enable the last-mile network probe test, the SDK triggers the following callbacks:

- onLastmileQuality: The SDK triggers this callback within two seconds depending on the network conditions. This callback rates the network conditions and is more closely linked to the user experience.
- onLastmileProbeResult: The SDK triggers this callback within 30 seconds depending on the network conditions. This callback reports the real-time statistics of the network conditions and is more objective.

Note
  - Do not call any other method before receiving the onLastmileQuality and onLastmileProbeResult callbacks. Otherwise, the callbacks may be interrupted.
  - In the live-broadcast profile, a host should not call this method after connecting to a channel.

Parameters

  config | The configurations of the last-mile network probe test. See LastmileProbeConfig.

Returns
  - 0: Success.
  - < 0: Failure.

## ◆ stopLastmileProbeTest()

virtual int agora::rtc::IRtcConnection::stopLastmileProbeTest | ( | aosl_ref_t | ares = `AOSL_REF_INVALID` | ) |
| pure virtual

Stops the last-mile network probe test.

Returns
  - 0: Success.
  - < 0: Failure.

## ◆ renewToken()

virtual int agora::rtc::IRtcConnection::renewToken | ( | const char * | token,
|  | aosl_ref_t | ares = `AOSL_REF_INVALID`
| ) |  |
| pure virtual

Renews the token.

The token expires after a certain period of time. The SDK triggers the onRenewTokenResult callback after the token is renewed.

When the onError callback reports `ERR_TOKEN_EXPIRED(109)`, you must generate a new token from the server and then call this method to renew it. Otherwise, the SDK disconnects from the Agora channel.

Parameters

  token | The pointer to the new token.
