Dear Friends:
New, improved for Summer 2001,
NIST-SIP
1.0 is now available for
download!
This distribution contains :
1. A public domain
extensible, modular JAVA based message parser for the Session Initiation
Protocol (SIP/SDP). The distinguishing features of this parser are (1) It
uses a parser generator to build the parser rather than ad-hoc
techniques. This makes the syntax clear, extensible and easy to
debug. (2) It incorporates flexible exception handling for bad
headers, giving an application fine grained control over how to deal with
mal-formed headers and (3) It incorporates an extension mechanism to deal with
new header types. The core parser handles headers that are
part of SIP RFC 2543 and the 2543-bis02 draft revision standard and there
are header classes defined for these.
2. A simple stack with security support. (including
support for Basic and Digest Authentication)
3. An implementation of the
JAIN-SIP 1.0 interfaces on the basis of the NIST-SIP parser and stack.
( Note that while the
JAIN implementation is complete, it is not JAIN
certified.)
4. Examples that illustrate the use of this
library including a simple proxy server with firewall support.
The
improvements over version 0.9 are:
1. Fixed parser and lexical analyzer
warnings. The build is clean
2. Added the following
packages:
gov.nist.sip.stack
gov.nist.sip.stack.security
gov.nist.jain.protocol.ip.sip
(JAIN-SIP)
gov.nist.jain.protocol.ip.sip.header
(JAIN-SIP)
gov.nist.jain.protocol.ip.sip.message
(JAIN-SIP)
3. Added a minimal example proxy implementation.
4.
Added jain-sip example implementation.
5. Cleaned up make
files.
6. Significant performance enhancements in the Parser.
7.
Cleaned up grammar.
