Description of Adding a SIP Header to Sofia SIP
===============================================
by Pekka Pessi (2002-08-16, updated 2006-10-03)
There are three ways to extend the Sofia SIP parser, including a standard
header in sip_t structure, including a standard header in extra headers or
putting the extension headers into a separate library.
Probalem with extending #sip_t is that it breaks binary compatibility.
In the text below, we use "Example" header as our example with following
ABNF:
sip-example = "Example" COLON 1*DIGIT
IF YOUR HEADER IS A STANDARD ONE
--------------------------------
* In <sip.h>, add:
- Add typedef to the header structure.
The typedefs to ordinary headers are in more or less alphabetic
order after typedef of sip_unknown_t. You should add a typedef line
like this:
typedef struct sip_example_s sip_example_t;
Note that the typedefs are documented together with the
implementation in the .c file.
- Add field to the sip_t structure (struct sip_s)
- Remember to add a comment containing the header name
after field for benefit of the AWK script autmatically generating
boilerplate functions and macros:
sip_example_t *sip_example; /**< Example */
- The AWK script msg_parser.awk automatically creates the default
prototypes and tags for the newly created header when the entry in
sip_t structure is formatted like to the example above.
It will complain about mismatches between header name and field name.
* Add the actual header structure:
The header structure would look like below. The first field MUST be a
sip_common_t structure, second field MUST be a pointer to next header
with same name. As a convention, if there can be only one header field
of this kind, the type of the "next" pointer is sip_error_t.
The fields representing the header value are located after the mandatory
fields, usually in the order they are present in the header contents. In
this case, the Example header consist of a 32-bit integer:
/**@ingroup sip_example
* @brief Structure for Example header.
*/
struct sip_example_s {
sip_common_t ex_common[1]; /**< Common fragment info. */
sip_error_t *ex_next; /**< Link to next (dummy). */
unsigned long ex_value; /**< Value of example. */
};
* Write parsing tests for your new headers in torture_sip.c:
Add all relevant parsing/processing cases you can think of
at the end of function sip_header_test() or add a testing
function of your own.
* Add implementation in a suitable ".c" file
- For an simple example, see implementation of Date header in sip_basic.c
- Add a documentation group with @defgroup
- Document the typedef
- Add header class structure
- Add parsing and printing functions:
+ sip_example_d(), sip_example_e()
- Add functions used when copying the header structure:
+ sip_example_dup_xtra(), sip_example_dup_one()
* If you added a .c file, add to the Makefile.am
- remember to run autogen.sh unless you have given --enable-maintainer-mode
to configure script
* Run "make check" after you are ready
* Run "make check" after you are ready. Really.
IF YOUR HEADERS ARE NON-STANDARD
--------------------------------
- There is an example package sofia-sip-2543.tar.gz, available from
sofia-sip.sourceforge.net
See the extension package for 1)
- Create a header template for your header just like
sofia-sip/rfc2543.h.in (found in <sofia-sip/rfc2543.h> package),
e.g, sip_example.h.in:
---8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<----8<---
/**@file sip_example.h.in
*
* Template for <sip_example.h>.
*/
#ifndef SIP_EXAMPLE_H
/** Defined when <sip_example.h> has been included. */
#define SIP_EXAMPLE_H
/**@file sip_example.h
*
* @brief Example header.
*
* #AUTO#
*
* @author Pekka Pessi <Pekka.Pessi@nokia.com>.
