Detailed Description

Represents a connection between a client and an Vonage Video API session.

The Session.Connection property is set to a Connection object that represents the local user's connection. The Stream.Connection property is set to a Connection object that represents the stream publisher's connection. To initialize a session, call the

OpenTok.Session.Session(Context, string, string, bool, Uri, bool, Uri, IceConfig) constructor, which returns the Session object. Then call the Session.Connect(string) method to connect to the session. When the connection to the session is made, the Session object sends the Session.Connected event.

When streams connect to a session, the Session object sends the Session.StreamReceived event. Compare the connection property of a Stream object with the connection property of the Session object to determine if a stream is published by your client or another.
