 * @section howto4_1 Description.

Dialog management is a powerful facility given by oSIP. This feature is
needed by SIP end point who has the capability to answer calls. (i.e.
answering 200 OK to an INVITE).

A Dialog is a context for a call establishment in oSIP. It's not useless
to say that ONE invite request can lead to several call establishment.
This can happen if your call has been forked by a proxy and several
user agent was contacted and replied at the same time. It is true that
this case won't probably happen several times a month...

There is two ways of creating a dialog. In one case, you are the CALLER
and in the other case, you will be the CALLEE.

 * @section howto4_2 Creating a dialog as a CALLER.

In this case, you have to create a dialog each time you receive
an answer with a code between 101 and 299. The best place in oSIP to
actually create a dialog is of course in the callback that announce
such SIP messages. Of course, each time you receive a response, you have
to check for an existing dialog associated to this INVITE that can have
been created by earlier SIP answer coming from the same User Agent. The
code in the callback will look like the following:

<PRE>
	void cb_rcv1xx(osip_transaction_t *tr,osip_message_t *sip)
	{
		osip_dialog_t *dialog;
		if (MSG_IS_RESPONSEFOR(sip, "INVITE")&&!MSG_TEST_CODE(sip, 100))
		{
			dialog = my_application_search_existing_dialog(sip);
			if (dialog==NULL) //NO EXISTING DIALOG
			{
				i = osip_dialog_init_as_uac(&dialog, sip);
				my_application_add_existing_dialog(dialog);
			}
		}
		else
		{
			// no dialog establishment for other REQUEST
		}
	}
</PRE>

 * @section howto4_3 Creating a dialog as a CALLEE

In this case, you will have to create a dialog upon receiving the first
transmission of the INVITE request. The correct place to do that is inside
the callback previously registered to announce new INVITE. First, you will
build a SIP answer like 180 or 200 and you'll be able to create a dialog
by calling the following code:
osip_dialog_t *dialog;
osip_dialog_init_as_uas(&dialog, original_invite, response_that_you_build);

To make things working, you MUST create a VALID response: do not
forget to create a new tag and put it in the 'To' header. The dialog
management heavily depends on this tag.

 * @section howto4_4 Compliance issue with rfc2543 & forking.

The dialog management is compliant with the latest SIP draft
(rfc2543bis-09). It should handle successfully most cases where
a remote UA is not compliant (no tag in the To of a final response!)
But for example, if you receive 2 answers from 2 uncompliant
UA, they will be detected as being related to the same dialog...
Do not change any code in oSIP or in your application... instead, you
should boycott such implementation. :-
