[reSIProcate] Questions about bbridge...


Hi,

I FINALLY was able to get into SipFoundry this holiday to download
the bbridge libraries...   and came to the following conclusions...

It is NOT a self contained Application...

There is NO documentation (not even preliminary) on bbridge.

I cannot find the RTP part of it,  where is it?  What is name of modules
that sets up RTP session?  I remember seeing somewhere where they
use the sipx rtp stack...  I don't see anywhere it is used or called?
Is this in another seperate section not in the release?  If so,  will
it be available soon?

One of the main problems I have is the choice of words to describe
the SIP objects in the stack, and of course the module names.

For instance.....

Where is "Invite" session setup code?   I don't see it...  In particular,
there has to be a piece of code that sets up an "invite" message and
associated objects, then "send()" the invite...  where is it?  What is
name of source module that sets it up and sends it?  I would assume
that "invite" method would be used to join a conference call,  right?
I see an InviteSessionhandler with callback methods in
"ConferenceUserAgent"....  but which module is the actual "send()"
if the invite?


It's been 5 months since I started struggling with resip.  Does anyone
know of any COMPLETE applications in open source that uses the resip
libs?  Something new,  or that might be added...  I already googled
the following keywords...   resipricate application, resipricate soft phone,
resipricate SIP phone, and about 20 others.

I had hoped the bbridge would be a complete App...  I wouldn't even
care what platform it would be written for.

Has anyone taken my suggestion to add a "Whats new" section to the WIKI
which references any new (and more complete) documentation in the WIKI?

I still don't see any entry in the "Tutorial" section...  when is someone
(more knowledgeable then me) going to get around to putting something
in there?  The one most important to me is "Creating a simple agent".
I;m sure others in the list can benefit from this,   right?

In another section, where they talk about "Contents" in the WIKI,
They tell you how to get the contents object from the "message",
but they don't tell me anything at all of how to get the contents,
like extracting specific lines like "o=" and others...  I asked
for specific examples from the group, but am unable to get it to work.
Why can't they just give a few more examples of Accessors showing
how to get it?  So far, I'm just doing string searches in the contents
data, and parsing it that way.  Is this how it's supposed to be used?

I can spend hours going through the entire thing, looking for new things that
might be added.  I do this twice a week.  If I know directly where to look,
I (and others) can find them easier.  Has anyone added ANYTHING to the
WIKI in the last few weeks?   Care to enlighten me as to what it was?

Is there a plan to write up and release documentation on how to use
"bbridge" classes.

Why is bbridge setup in a seperate namespace?
