sip_release_dialog(3SIP)

Name

sip_hold_dialog, sip_release_dialog - hold/release reference on a dialog

Synopsis

cc [ flag ... ] file ... –lsip [ library ... ]
#include <sip.h>

void sip_hold_dialog(sip_dialog_t dialog);
void sip_release_dialog(sip_dialog_t dialog);

Description

For functions that return a pointer of type sip_str_t, sip_str_t is supplied by:

typedef struct sip_str {
     char	*sip_str_ptr;
     int	sip_str_len;
}sip_str_t;

The sip_str_ptr parameter points to the start of the returned value and sip_str_len supplies the length of the returned value.

The sip_hold_dialog() function is used to hold a reference on the dialog. A dialog is not freed if there are any references on it.

The sip_release_dialog() function is used to release a reference in the dialog. If the reference in a dialog drops to 0 and it is in SIP_DLG_DESTROYED state, it is freed.

Return Values

The value of errno is not changed by these calls in the event of an error.
