ClientTransaction

ClientTransaction

The ClientTransaction class defines a SIP client transaction object located on a SIP proxy.

A ClientTransaction object is created by calling ServerTransaction.CreateBranch on a ServerTransaction object. For forking proxy behaviors, ServerTransaction.CreateBranch can be called multiple times; however, a ClientTransaction object itself can service only one request. To send the request, call ClientTransaction.SendRequest.

To handle the responses for the request sent by a specific client transaction, you must register for the ClientTransaction.ResponseReceived event. This event will return a ResponseReceivedEventArgs object whenever it is raised, and contains the response as a Response Sip Class object.

Currently, the UAC client transaction case is not supported, where the server originates a client transaction. Only proxy behaviors are available for this class.

The ClientTransaction class is derived from the Transaction Sip Class class.

Inherited from System.Object. Serves as a hash function for a particular type, suitable for use in hashing algorithms and data structures like a hash table.

GetType()

Inherited from System.Object. Gets the System.Type of the current instance.

ClientTransaction.SendRequest

Sends a SIP request to a server transaction on a proxy or UAS.

ToString()

Inherited from System.Object. Returns a System.String that represents the current System.Object.

ServerAgent.Dispose ()

Inherited from Transaction. Destroys this transaction and releases all unmanaged resources as well as optionally releasing all managed ones.

Transaction.Finalize

Inherited from Transaction. Provides a finalizer for this instance of the Transaction class.

Transaction.OnCanceled

Inherited from Transaction. Raises the Transaction.Canceled event.

ClientTransaction.OnResponseReceived

Remarks

For specific information on the nature of client transactions, the UAC, inbound and outbound proxies, and server transactions, see Section 17 of RFC 3261 (SIP: Session Initiation Protocol).

Example Code

The following code example logs the time a request is passed to the "OnRequest" dispatch handler, and then forwards the request by creating a branch on the server transaction passed to the handler. Requests are dispatched to this method from the MSPL script in the application manifest using the Dispatch MSPL function.

public void OnRequest(object sender, RequestReceivedEventArgs e)
{

Console.WriteLine("Enter OnRequest:" + System.DateTime.Now.ToLongTimeString());

ClientTransaction branch = e.ServerTransaction.CreateBranch();
branch.SendRequest(e.Request);

}

Requirements
