Comment #17 on issue 2066 by jean.deruelle: Miss Record-Route in Response
http://code.google.com/p/mobicents/issues/detail?id=2066

@Karthikeyan Can you explain what is problematic in your scenarios and why you need to copy the Record Route headers as the messages seems correctly routed to me and the entire call (reINVITE include) seems to be successful ?

Please read RFC 3261 Section 12.2 Requests within a Dialog :

"  Once a dialog has been established between two UAs, either of them
   MAY initiate new transactions as needed within the dialog.  The UA
   sending the request will take the UAC role for the transaction.  The
   UA receiving the request will take the UAS role.  Note that these may
   be different roles than the UAs held during the transaction that
   established the dialog.

   Requests within a dialog MAY contain Record-Route and Contact header
   fields.  However, these requests do not cause the dialog's route set
   to be modified, although they may modify the remote target URI.
   Specifically, requests that are not target refresh requests do not
   modify the dialog's remote target URI, and requests that are target
   refresh requests do.  For dialogs that have been established with an
   INVITE, the only target refresh request defined is re-INVITE (see
   Section 14).  Other extensions may define different target refresh
   requests for dialogs established in other ways.

      Note that an ACK is NOT a target refresh request.

   Target refresh requests only update the dialog's remote target URI,
   and not the route set formed from the Record-Route.  Updating the
   latter would introduce severe backwards compatibility problems with
   RFC 2543-compliant systems."

There is no point in copying the Record-Route since it will not be used as the route set cannot be modified once the dialog is established and will apparently introduce severe backwards compatibility problems with RFC 2543-compliant systems.
