[Linphone-developers] eXosip patches / liblinphone extension

[Thomas Reitmayr]

Hi Simon,
2 weeks ago I released a stable version of yeaphone, my application using the 
liblinphone backend, together with a patched version of linphone to the 
openembedded repository at 
http://www.openembedded.org/filebrowser/org.openembedded.dev/packages/.

These patches are:

(1) The two patches submitted in my emails "OPTIONS transaction handling" 
regarding two memory leaks in eXosip. Aymeric confirmed the leaks as well as 
the solution for OSIP_NIST_KILL_TRANSACTION, but referred to eXosip2 for the 
solution to the OPTIONS leakage.

(2) An extension to the liblinphone interface which provides the "general 
state" (aehm, a rather general name) of the backend regarding the three areas 
startup/shutdown of the backend, registration with the provider and the state 
of a call.
   This was needed as the original interface AFAIK does not do a callback for 
each important state change. There are situations where only a message being 
displayed to the user can give an idea about what has happened. One example 
where this is essential: If a call is ended due to some error (timeout, ..), a 
handset with just one keypad has to switch from DTMF mode back to dialing mode.
   Parsing the user messages to accomplish this soon turned out to be no viable 
solution.

All patches are provided by the file 
http://download.devbase.at/voip/linphone-1.6.0-pl0.patch

Will the patches (1) be included in the current linphone code, respectively 
what are your plans for moving to eXosip2?
And - would you include an interface extension as proposed by the patches (2) 
or similar?

Best regards,
-Thomas
