[reSIProcate] Some thoughts on adding OPTIONS handling to the DUM

[Derek MacDonald]

A couple of points:
1.) A dialog will not be created for an out-of-dialog request, just a
DialogSet.

2) I would have individual handlers, then DUM can generate a 405 for
out-of-dialog requests that are not supported.  You could also add a default
options handler for out-of-dialog OPTIONS requests(I don't think these can
have an SDP).

  DUM Design Team,



  OPTIONS handling could potentially look at the Profile and DUM could
generate a response - but since options handling may require an SDP answer,
then final handling must be past to the application - via a handler.  We
could add a helper function to generate the initial OPTIONS response, then
the user could add the SDP info and whatever else before calling send.



  If the OPTIONS request is out of Dialog then a short lived DialogSet and
Dialog should likely be created and the message should be dispatched to
ServerOutOfDialogReq - I think this should in turn call Handler callback
onReceivedRequest.



  Currently OutOfDialog Handlers are not implemented on the DUM - there is
an addOutOfDialogHandler function - that adds a handler to a list for a
particular OutOfDialog request type.  Is likely to be the final signature of
this function - or should we just have one OutOfDialogHandler registered and
it can handle all message types?



  If the OPTIONS request is in Dialog - which handler should it be
dispatched to?  The Invite Session is a possibility - but it is possible to
receive an OPTIONS message in a Dialog that is not an INVITE session?



  Any thoughts on the design of the OPTIONS request handling?
