     * Create a new session on this connection.  Sessions allow

     * commands to the broker.
     *
     * Session functions are synchronous. In other words, a Session
     * function will send a command to the broker and does not return
     * until it receives the broker's response confirming the command
     * was executed.
     *
     * AsyncSession provides asynchronous versions of the same
     * functions.  These functions send a command to the broker but do
     * not wait for a response. 
     *
     * You can convert a Session s into an AsyncSession as follows:
     * @code
     *  #include <qpid/client/AsyncSession.h>
     *  AsyncSession as = async(s);
     * @endcode
     *
     * You can execute a single command asynchronously will a Session s
     * like ths:
     * @code
     *  async(s).messageTransfer(...);
     * @endcode
     * 
     * Using an AsyncSession is faster for sending large numbers of
     * commands, since each command is sent as soon as possible
     * without waiting for the previous command to be confirmed.
     *
     * However with AsyncSession you cannot assume that a command has
     * completed until you explicitly synchronize. The simplest way to
     * do this is to call Session::sync() or AsyncSession::sync().
     * Both of these functions wait for the broker to confirm all
     * commands issued so far on the session.
     *
     *@param name: A name to identify the session. @see qpid::SessionId
     * If the name is empty (the default) then a unique name will be
     * chosen using a Universally-unique identifier (UUID) algorithm.
