SIP_PROCESS_NEW_PACKET 3SIP "Jan 25, 2007"
NAME
sip_process_new_packet - send an inbound message to the SIP stack for processing
SYNOPSIS

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

void sip_process_new_packet(sip_conn_object_t conn_object,
 void *msgstr, size_t msgstr);
DESCRIPTION

The sip_process_new_packet() function receives incoming message, creates a SIP message, processes it and passes it on to the application. For a byte-stream protocol like TCP sip_process_new_packet() also takes care of breaking the byte stream into message boundaries using the CONTENT-LENGTH header in the SIP message. If the SIP message arriving on TCP does not contain a CONTENT-LENGTH header, the behavior is unspecified. sip_process_new_packet() deletes the SIP message on return from the application's receive function, thus if the application wishes to retain the SIP message for future use, it must use sip_hod_msg() so that the message is not freed by sip_process_new_packet().

RETURN VALUES

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