NAME

How-To send or update registrations. - eXosip2 offers a flexible API to help you to register one or several identities.

Initiate a registration

To start a registration, you need to build a default REGISTER request bby providing several mandatory headers
osip_message_t *reg = NULL; int id; int i;
  eXosip_lock ();
  id = eXosip_register_build_initial_register (identity, registrar, NULL,
                                               1800, &reg);
  if (id < 0)
    {
      eXosip_unlock ();
      return -1;
    }
  osip_message_set_supported (reg, '100rel');
  osip_message_set_supported(reg, 'path');
  i = eXosip_register_send_register (id, reg);
  eXosip_unlock ();
  return i;

The returned element of eXosip_register_build_initial_register is the registration identifier that you can use to update your registration. In future events about this registration, you'll see that registration identifier when applicable.

Update a registration

You just need to reuse the registration identifier:
int i;
  eXosip_lock ();
  i = eXosip_register_build_register (id, 1800, &reg);
  if (i < 0)
    {
      eXosip_unlock ();
      return -1;
    }
  eXosip_register_send_register (id, reg);
  eXosip_unlock ();
Note: The above code also shows that the stack is sometimes able to build and send a default SIP messages with only one API call

Closing the registration

A softphone should delete its registration on the SIP server when terminating. To do so, you have to send a REGISTER request with the expires header set to value '0'.
The same code as for updating a registration is used with 0 instead of 1800 for the expiration delay.
