RTP Packets are not being sent or received using mjsip

Question

I am working on a softphone project using mjsip sip stack. Mjsip only supports g711 or PCMA/PCMU codec. I have added G729 to my project. When I build the project it shows no error. But when the phones get connected it the call gets established there is no voice transmitting, actually my app doesn't generate any rtp packets. And in the log there shows a error like

java.lang.NullPointerException
RtpStreamReceiver - run -> Terminated.
    at local.media.RtpStreamReceiver.run(RtpStreamReceiver.java:171)

I have failed to find the bug.

Here is my RtpStreamReceiver.java class.

package local.media;

import local.net.RtpPacket;
import local.net.RtpSocket;
import java.io.*;
import java.net.DatagramSocket;
import org.flamma.codec.SIPCodec;

/** RtpStreamReceiver is a generic stream receiver.
  * It receives packets from RTP and writes them into an OutputStream.
  */

public class RtpStreamReceiver extends Thread {

    public static int RTP_HEADER_SIZE = 12;
    private long start = System.currentTimeMillis();
    public static final int SO_TIMEOUT = 200;   // Maximum blocking time, spent waiting for reading new bytes [milliseconds]
    private SIPCodec sipCodec = null; // Sip codec to be used on audio session
    private RtpSocket rtp_socket = null;
    private boolean socketIsLocal = false;      // Whether the socket has been created here
    private boolean running = false;
    private int timeStamp = 0;
    private int frameCounter = 0;
    private OutputStream output_stream;

    public RtpStreamReceiver( SIPCodec sipCodec, OutputStream output_stream, int local_port )
    {
        try {
            DatagramSocket socket = new DatagramSocket( local_port );

            socketIsLocal = true;

            init( sipCodec, output_stream, socket );

            start = System.currentTimeMillis();

    private void init( SIPCodec sipCodec, OutputStream output_stream, DatagramSocket socket )
    {

        this.output_stream = output_stream;

        if ( socket != null ) {
            rtp_socket = new RtpSocket( socket );
        }
    }

        {
            println( "run", "RTP socket is null." );
            return;
        }

        byte[] codedBuffer  = new byte[ sipCodec.getIncomingEncodedFrameSize() ];
        byte[] internalBuffer   = new byte[sipCodec.getIncomingEncodedFrameSize() + RTP_HEADER_SIZE ];

        RtpPacket rtpPacket = new RtpPacket( internalBuffer, 0 );

        running = true;

        try {

            rtp_socket.getDatagramSocket().setSoTimeout( SO_TIMEOUT );

            float[] decodingBuffer = new float[ sipCodec.getIncomingDecodedFrameSize() ];
            int packetCount = 0;

            println( "run",
                    "internalBuffer.length = " + internalBuffer.length
                    + ", codedBuffer.length = " + codedBuffer.length
                    + ", decodingBuffer.length = " + decodingBuffer.length + "." );

            while ( running ) {

                try {
                    rtp_socket.receive( rtpPacket );
                    frameCounter++;

                    if ( running ) {

                        byte[] packetBuffer = rtpPacket.getPacket();
                        int offset = rtpPacket.getHeaderLength();
                        int length = rtpPacket.getPayloadLength();
                        int payloadType = rtpPacket.getPayloadType();
                        if(payloadType < 20)
                        {
                System.arraycopy(packetBuffer, offset, codedBuffer, 0, sipCodec.getIncomingEncodedFrameSize());
                                timeStamp = (int)(System.currentTimeMillis() - start);
                output_stream.write(codedBuffer,offset,length);
                        }
                    }
                }
                catch ( java.io.InterruptedIOException e ) {
                }
            }
        }
        catch ( Exception e ) {

            running = false;
            e.printStackTrace();
        }

        // Close RtpSocket and local DatagramSocket.
        DatagramSocket socket = rtp_socket.getDatagramSocket();
        rtp_socket.close();

        if ( socketIsLocal && socket != null ) {
            socket.close();
        }

        // Free all.
        rtp_socket = null;

        println( "run", "Terminated." );
    }


/** Debug output */
private static void println( String method, String message ) {

    System.out.println( "RtpStreamReceiver - " + method + " -> " + message );
}

And the line 171 is: output_stream.write(codedBuffer,offset,length);

If you are interested here is the full project source.

most likely NPE is caused by `output_stream` being null when `RtpStreamReceiver` thread is running. I'd use `println` to find out if this is the case. — gnat, Feb 25 '12 at 18:59
is the socket bound (bind()) or opened, or does the RtpSocket class handle this for you? — EdH, Jun 29 '12 at 04:37

As @gnat said in the comment - most likely output_stream is null.

If that is the case you should check why. One reason could be that:

private void init( SIPCodec sipCodec, OutputStream output_stream, DatagramSocket socket )

is called with null parameter and that it overrides a value being correctly setup before.

You can log 'who' called a specific function by putting the following as the first line in init:

System.out.println("My function is called from: "
+ Thread.currentThread().getStackTrace()[2].getClassName() + "."
+ Thread.currentThread().getStackTrace()[2].getMethodName());

For transmit voice using RTP Java media framework great to use. from website of oracle u can get jmf.exe. And u can transmit voice using that Api. coading of transmitting voice is also available.
