Path Header
[SIP Headers]

Detailed Description

The Path header field is a SIP extension header field (RFC 3327) with syntax very similar to the Record-Route header field.

It is used in conjunction with SIP REGISTER requests and with 200 class messages in response to REGISTER (REGISTER responses).

    Path        =  "Path" HCOLON path-value *(COMMA path-value)
    path-value  =  name-addr *( SEMI rr-param )

The parsed Path header is stored in sip_path_t structure.

Define Documentation

 
#define SIP_PATH_INIT (   ) 
 

Initializer for structure sip_path_t.

A static sip_path_t structure for Path header must be initialized with the SIP_PATH_INIT() macro. For instance, 

  sip_path_t sip_path = SIP_PATH_INIT;

#define SIPTAG_PATH (  x   ) 
 

Tag list item for pointer to a Path header structure sip_path_t.

The SIPTAG_PATH() macro is used to include a tag item with a pointer to a sip_path_t structure in a tag list.

Parameters:
x pointer to a sip_path_t structure, or NULL.
The corresponding tag taking reference parameter is SIPTAG_PATH_REF().

#define SIPTAG_PATH_STR (  s   ) 
 

Tag list item for string with Path header value.

The SIPTAG_PATH_STR() macro is used to include a tag item with a string containing value of a sip_path_t header in a tag list.

Parameters:
s pointer to a string containing Path header value, or NULL.
The string in SIPTAG_PATH_STR() can be converted to a sip_path_t header structure by giving the string s has second argument to function sip_path_make().

The corresponding tag taking reference parameter is SIPTAG_PATH_STR_REF().

Typedef Documentation

typedef struct sip_route_s sip_path_t
 

The structure sip_path_t contains representation of SIP Path header.

The sip_path_t is defined as follows: 

 typedef struct sip_route_s {
   sip_common_t        r_common[1];   // Common fragment info
   sip_path_t         *r_next;        // Link to next @Path
   char const         *r_display;     // Display name
   url_t               r_url[1];      // @Path URL
   msg_param_t const  *r_params;      // List of parameters
 } sip_path_t;

Function Documentation

int sip_is_path (  sip_header_t const *  header  )  [inline]
 

Test if header object is instance of sip_path_t.

Check if the header class is an instance of Path header object and return true (nonzero), otherwise return false (zero).

Parameters:
header pointer to the header structure to be tested
Return values:
1 (true) if the header is an instance of header path
0 (false) otherwise

sip_path_t * sip_path_copy (  su_home_t *  home,
sip_path_t const *  hdr
)  [inline]
 

Copy a list of Path header header structures sip_path_t.

The function sip_path_copy() copies a header structure hdr. If the header structure hdr contains a reference (hdr->h_next) to a list of headers, all the headers in that list are copied, too. The function uses given memory home to allocate all the memory areas used to copy the list of header structure hdr.

Parameters:
home memory home used to allocate new structure
hdr pointer to the header structure to be copied
When copying, only the header structure and parameter lists attached to it are duplicated. The new header structure retains all the references to the strings within the old hdr header, including the encoding of the old header, if present.

Example
   path = sip_path_copy(home, sip->sip_path);
Returns:
A pointer to newly copied header structure, or NULL upon an error.

sip_path_t * sip_path_dup (  su_home_t *  home,
sip_path_t const *  hdr
)  [inline]
 

Duplicate a list of Path header header structures sip_path_t.

Duplicate a header structure hdr. If the header structure hdr contains a reference (hdr->x_next) to a list of headers, all the headers in the list are duplicated, too.

Parameters:
home memory home used to allocate new structure
hdr header structure to be duplicated
When duplicating, all parameter lists and non-constant strings attached to the header are copied, too. The function uses given memory home to allocate all the memory areas used to copy the header.

Example
   path = sip_path_dup(home, sip->sip_path);
Returns:
A pointer to the newly duplicated sip_path_t header structure, or NULL upon an error.

sip_path_t * sip_path_format (  su_home_t *  home,
char const *  fmt,
  ...
)  [inline]
 

Make a Path header from formatting result.

Make a new sip_path_t object using formatting result as its value. The function first prints the arguments according to the format fmt specified. Then it allocates a new header structure, and parses the formatting result to the structure sip_path_t.

Parameters:
home memory home used to allocate new header structure.
fmt string used as a printf()-style format
... argument list for format
Returns:
A pointer to newly makes header structure, or NULL upon an error.

sip_path_t* sip_path_init (  sip_path_t  x[1]  )  [inline]
 

Initialize a structure sip_path_t.

An sip_path_t structure for Path header can be initialized with the sip_path_init() function/macro. For instance, 

  sip_path_t sip_path;

  sip_path_init(&sip_path);

sip_path_t * sip_path_make (  su_home_t *  home,
char const *  s
)  [inline]
 

Make a Path header structure sip_path_t.

The function sip_path_make() makes a new sip_path_t header structure. It allocates a new header structure, and decodes the string s as the value of the structure.

Parameters:
home memory home used to allocate new header structure.
s string to be decoded as value of the new header structure
Returns:
A pointer to newly maked sip_path_t header structure, or NULL upon an error.

Variable Documentation

msg_hclass_t sip_path_class[]
 

Header class for Path header.

The header class sip_path_class defines how a SIP Path header is parsed and printed. It also contains methods used by SIP parser and other functions to manipulate the sip_path_t header structure.
