/**
* A SIP Request is a request from a client to a server. The following Requests
* method names are defined by
* RFC3261:
*
* - ACK - confirms that client has received a final Response to an INVITE
* Request.
*
- BYE - indicates to the server that client wishes to release the
* call leg.
*
- CANCEL - cancels a pending User Agent Client Request.
*
- INVITE - indicates that user or service is being invited to participate
* in a session.
*
- OPTIONS - queries a server with regards to its capabilities.
*
- REGISTER - registers contact information with a SIP server.
*
*
* This specifications also supports the following method name extensions, documented in
* the following standards track RFCs:
*
* - INFO - used to carry session related control information that is
* generated during a session. This functionality is defined in
* RFC2976.
*
- PRACK - similiar in operation to ACK, however specific to the
* reliability of provisional Responses. This functionality is defined in
* RFC3262.
*
- UPDATE - allows a client to update parameters of a session without
* impacting the state of a dialog. This functionality is defined in
* RFC3311.
*
- SUBSCRIBE - provides an extensible framework by which SIP nodes can
* request notification from remote nodes indicating that certain events have
* occurred. This functionality is defined in
* RFC3265.
*
- NOTIFY - provides an extensible framework by which SIP nodes can
* get notification from remote nodes indicating that certain events have
* occurred. This functionality is defined in
* RFC3265.
*
- MESSAGE - for sending instant messages using a metaphor similar to that
* of a two-way pager or SMS enabled handset. This functionality is defined in
* RFC3428.
*
- REFER - requests that the recipient REFER to a resource provided in
* the request. This functionality is defined in
* RFC3515.
*
- PUBLISH - for publishing event state. This functionality is defined in
* RFC3903.
*
* A valid SIP request formulated by a User Agent Client MUST, at a minimum, contain the
* following header fields: To, From, CSeq, Call-ID, Max-Forwards, and Via; all
* of these header fields are mandatory in all SIP requests. These six header
* fields are the fundamental building blocks of a SIP message, as they jointly
* provide for most of the critical message routing services including the
* addressing of messages, the routing of responses, limiting message
* propagation, ordering of messages, and the unique identification of
* transactions. These header fields are in addition to the mandatory request
* line, which contains the method, Request-URI, and SIP version.

* bindings or query to determine which bindings are currently in place for

* known as a registrar. A registrar acts as the front end to the location

/**
* Notify is an extension method that informs subscribers of changes in state
* to which the subscriber has a subscription. Subscriptions are typically
* put in place using the SUBSCRIBE method; however, it is possible that
* other means have been used.
*
* When a SUBSCRIBE request is answered with a 200-class response, the
* notifier MUST immediately construct and send a NOTIFY request to the
* subscriber. When a change in the subscribed state occurs, the notifier
* SHOULD immediately construct and send a NOTIFY request, subject to
* authorization, local policy, and throttling considerations.
*
* A NOTIFY does not terminate its corresponding subscription. i.e. a single
* SUBSCRIBE request may trigger several NOTIFY requests. NOTIFY requests
* MUST contain a "Subscription-State" header with a value of "active",
* "pending", or "terminated". As in SUBSCRIBE requests, NOTIFY "Event"
* headers will contain a single event package name for which a notification
* is being generated. The package name in the "Event" header MUST match
* the "Event" header in the corresponding SUBSCRIBE message. If an "id"
* parameter was present in the SUBSCRIBE message, that "id" parameter MUST
* also be present in the corresponding NOTIFY messages.
*
* Event packages may define semantics associated with the body of their
* NOTIFY requests; if they do so, those semantics apply. NOTIFY bodies
* are expected to provide additional details about the nature of the event
* which has occurred and the resultant resource state. When present, the
* body of the NOTIFY request MUST be formatted into one of the body formats
* specified in the "Accept" header of the corresponding SUBSCRIBE request.
* This body will contain either the state of the subscribed resource or a
* pointer to such state in the form of a URI
*
* A NOTIFY request is considered failed if the response times out, or a
* non-200 class response code is received which has no "Retry-After"
* header and no implied further action which can be taken to retry the
* request. If a NOTIFY request receives a 481 response, the notifier MUST
* remove the corresponding subscription even if such subscription was
* installed by non-SUBSCRIBE means.
*
* If necessary, clients may probe for the support of NOTIFY using the
* OPTIONS. The presence of the "Allow-Events" header in a message is
* sufficient to indicate support for NOTIFY. The "methods" parameter for
* Contact may also be used to specifically announce support for NOTIFY
* messages when registering.
*
*/
public static final String NOTIFY = "NOTIFY";
/**
* Subscribe is an extension method that is used to request current state
* and state updates from a remote node. SUBSCRIBE requests SHOULD contain
* an "Expires" header, which indicates the duration of the subscription.
* In order to keep subscriptions effective beyond the duration communicated
* in the "Expires" header, subscribers need to refresh subscriptions on a
* periodic basis using a new SUBSCRIBE message on the same dialog. If no
* "Expires" header is present in a SUBSCRIBE request, the implied default
* is defined by the event package being used.
*
* 200-class responses to a SUBSCRIBE request indicate that the subscription
* has been accepted, and that a NOTIFY will be sent immediately. If the
* subscription resource has no meaningful state at the time that the SUBSCRIBE
* message is processed, this NOTIFY message MAY contain an empty or neutral body.
* 200-class responses to SUBSCRIBE requests also MUST contain an "Expires"
* header. The period of time in the response MAY be shorter but MUST NOT be
* longer than specified in the request. The period of time in the response
* is the one which defines the duration of the subscription. An "expires"
* parameter on the "Contact" header has no semantics for SUBSCRIBE and is
* explicitly not equivalent to an "Expires" header in a SUBSCRIBE request
* or response.
*
* The Request URI of a SUBSCRIBE request, contains enough information to
* route the request to the appropriate entity. It also contains enough
* information to identify the resource for which event notification is
* desired, but not necessarily enough information to uniquely identify the
* nature of the event. Therefore Subscribers MUST include exactly one
* "Event" header in SUBSCRIBE requests, indicating to which event or class
* of events they are subscribing. The "Event" header will contain a token
* which indicates the type of state for which a subscription is being
* requested.
*
* As SUBSCRIBE requests create a dialog, they MAY contain an "Accept"
* header. This header, if present, indicates the body formats allowed in
* subsequent NOTIFY requests. Event packages MUST define the behavior for
* SUBSCRIBE requests without "Accept" headers. If an initial SUBSCRIBE is
* sent on a pre-existing dialog, a matching 200-class response or successful
* NOTIFY request merely creates a new subscription associated with that
* dialog. Multiple subscriptions can be associated with a single dialog.
*
* Unsubscribing is handled in the same way as refreshing of a subscription,
* with the "Expires" header set to "0". Note that a successful unsubscription
* will also trigger a final NOTIFY message.
*
* If necessary, clients may probe for the support of SUBSCRIBE using the
* OPTIONS. The presence of the "Allow-Events" header in a message is
* sufficient to indicate support for SUBSCRIBE. The "methods" parameter for
* Contact may also be used to specifically announce support for SUBSCRIBE
* messages when registering.
*
*/
public static final String SUBSCRIBE = "SUBSCRIBE";
/**
* Message is an extension method that allows the transfer of Instant Messages.
* The MESSAGE request inherits all the request routing and security
* features of SIP. MESSAGE requests carry the content in the form of MIME
* body parts. The actual communication between participants happens in the
* media sessions, not in the SIP requests themselves. The MESSAGE method
* changes this assumption.
*
* MESSAGE requests do not themselves initiate a SIP dialog; under
* normal usage each Instant Message stands alone, much like pager
* messages, that is there are no explicit association between messages.
* MESSAGE requests may be sent in the context of a dialog initiated by some
* other SIP request. If a MESSAGE request is sent within a dialog, it is
* "associated" with any media session or sessions associated with that dialog.
*
* When a user wishes to send an instant message to another, the sender
* formulates and issues a Message request. The Request-URI of this request
* will normally be the "address of record" for the recipient of the instant
* message, but it may be a device address in situations where the client
* has current information about the recipient's location. The body of the
* request will contain the message to be delivered.
*
* Provisional and final responses to the request will be returned to the
* sender as with any other SIP request. Normally, a 200 OK response will be
* generated by the user agent of the request's final recipient. Note that
* this indicates that the user agent accepted the message, not that the
* user has seen it.
*
* The UAC MAY add an Expires header field to limit the validity of the message
* content. If the UAC adds an Expires header field with a non-zero value, it
* SHOULD also add a Date header field containing the time the message is sent.
* Most SIP requests are used to setup and modify communication sessions.
*

public static final String MESSAGE = "MESSAGE";
/**
* Refer is an extension method that requests that the recipient REFER to a
* resource provided in the request, this can be used to enable many
* applications such as Call Transfer. The REFER method indicates that
* the recipient (identified by the Request-URI) should contact a third
* party using the contact information provided in the request. A REFER
* request MUST contain exactly one Refer-To header field value and MAY
* contain a body. A receiving agent may choose to process the body
* according to its Content-Type.
*
* A User Agent accepting a well-formed REFER request SHOULD request
* approval from the user to proceed. If approval is granted, the User
* Agent MUST contact the resource identified by the URI. SIP proxies do
* not require modification to support the REFER method. A proxy should
* process a REFER request the same way it processes an OPTIONS request.
*
* A REFER request implicitly establishes a subscription to the "refer"
* event. The agent issuing the REFER can terminate this subscription
* prematurely by unsubscribing. A REFER request MAY be placed outside
* the scope of a dialog created with an INVITE. REFER creates a dialog,
* and MAY be Record-Routed, hence MUST contain a single Contact header
* field value. REFERs occurring inside an existing dialog MUST follow
* the Route/Record-Route logic of that dialog. The NOTIFY mechanism MUST
* be used to inform the agent sending the REFER of the status of the
* reference. The dialog identifiers of each NOTIFY must match those of
* the REFER as they would if the REFER had been a SUBSCRIBE request. If
* more than one REFER is issued in the same dialog, the dialog
* identifiers do not provide enough information to associate the
* resulting NOTIFYs with the proper REFER. Therefore it MUST include an
* "id" parameter in the Event header field of each NOTIFY containing the
* sequence number of the REFER this NOTIFY is associated with. A REFER
* sent within the scope of an existing dialog will not fork. A REFER
* sent outside the context of a dialog MAY fork, and if it is accepted
* by multiple agents, MAY create multiple subscriptions.
*

/**
* INFO is an extension method which allows for the carrying of session
* related control information that is generated during a session. One
* example of such session control information is ISUP and ISDN signaling
* messages used to control telephony call services. The purpose of the INFO
* message is to carry application level information along the SIP signaling
* path. The signaling path for the INFO method is the signaling path
* established as a result of the call setup. This can be either direct
* signaling between the calling and called user agents or a signaling path
* involving SIP proxy servers that were involved in the call setup and added
* themselves to the Record-Route header on the initial INVITE message.
*
* The INFO method is used for communicating mid-session signaling
* information, it is not used to change the state of SIP calls, nor does it
* change the state of sessions initiated by SIP. Rather, it provides
* additional optional information which can further enhance the application
* using SIP. The mid-session information can be communicated in either an
* INFO message header or as part of a message body. There are no specific
* semantics associated with INFO. The semantics are derived from the body
* or new headers defined for usage in INFO. JAIN SIP provides the
* facility to send {@link android.javax.sip.header.ExtensionHeader} in messages.
* The INFO request MAY contain a message body. Bodies which imply a change
* in the SIP call state or the sessions initiated by SIP MUST NOT be sent
* in an INFO message.

/**
* PRACK is an extension method that plays the same role as ACK, but for
* provisional responses. PRACK is a normal SIP message, like BYE. As such,
* its own reliability is ensured hop-by-hop through each stateful
* proxy. Also like BYE, but unlike ACK, PRACK has its own response.
* In order to achieve reliability of provisional responses, in a similiar
* manner to 2xx final responses to INVITE, reliable provisional responses
* are retransmitted with an exponential backoff, which cease when a PRACK
* message is received. The PRACK messages contain an RAck header field,
* which indicates the sequence number of the provisional response that is
* being acknowledged.
*
* PRACK is like any other request within a dialog, and is treated likewise.
* In particular, a UAC SHOULD NOT retransmit the PRACK request when it
* receives a retransmission of the provisional response being acknowledged,
* although doing so does not create a protocol error. A matching PRACK is
* defined as one within the same dialog as the response, and whose
* method, CSeq-num, and RSeq-num in the RAck header field match,
* respectively, the method and sequence number from the CSeq and the
* sequence number from the RSeq header of the reliable provisional response.
* PRACK requests MAY contain bodies, which are interpreted according to
* their type and disposition.

/**
* UPDATE is an extension method that allows a client to update parameters
* of a session (such as the set of media streams and their codecs) but has
* no impact on the state of a dialog. In that sense, it is like a re-INVITE,
* but unlike re-INVITE, it can be sent before the initial INVITE has been
* completed. This makes it very useful for updating session parameters
* within early dialogs. Operation of this extension is straightforward, the
* caller begins with an INVITE transaction, which proceeds normally. Once a
* dialog is established, the caller can generate an UPDATE method that
* contains an SDP offer for the purposes of updating the session. The
* response to the UPDATE method contains the answer. The Allow header
* field is used to indicate support for the UPDATE method. There are
* additional constraints on when UPDATE can be used, based on the
* restrictions of the offer/answer model. Although UPDATE can be used on
* confirmed dialogs, it is RECOMMENDED that a re-INVITE be used instead.
* This is because an UPDATE needs to be answered immediately, ruling out
* the possibility of user approval. Such approval will frequently be needed,
* and is possible with a re-INVITE.
*
*/
public static final String UPDATE = "UPDATE";
/**
* PUBLISH is an extension method that allows a client to publish event state
* (such as presence information). It is sent outside of any dialog, and is not
* dialog creating. PUBLISH is similar to REGISTER in that it allows a user
* to create, modify, and remove state in another entity which manages this
* state on behalf of the user. Addressing a PUBLISH request is identical
* to addressing a SUBSCRIBE request. The Request-URI of a PUBLISH request
* is populated with the address of the resource for which the user wishes
* to publish event state. The user may in turn have multiple User Agents
* or endpoints that publish event state. Each endpoint may publish its own
* unique state, out of which the event state compositor generates the
* composite event state of the resource. In addition to a particular
* resource, all published event state is associated with a specific event
* package. Through a subscription to that event package, the user is able
* to discover the composite event state of all of the active publications.
*
* PUBLISH requests create soft state in the event state compositor. This
* event soft state has a defined lifetime and will expire after a
* negotiated amount of time, requiring the publication to be refreshed
* by subsequent PUBLISH requests. There may also be event hard state
* provisioned for each resource for a particular event package. This event
* state represents the resource state that is present at all times, and
* does not expire.The event state compositor may use event hard state in
* the absence of, or in addition to, event soft state provided through
* the PUBLISH mechanism.
*
* Clients may probe for the support of PUBLISH using theOPTIONS request.
* The presence of "PUBLISH" in the "Allow" header field in a response to
* an OPTIONS request indicates support for the PUBLISH method. In addition,
* the "Allow-Events" header field indicates the supported event packages.
*
* A PUBLISH request does not establish a dialog. A UAC MAY include a
* Route header field in a PUBLISH request based on a pre-existing route set.
* The Record-Route header field has no meaning in PUBLISH requests or
* responses, and MUST be ignored if present. In particular, the UAC MUST
* NOT create a new route set based on the presence or absence of a
* Record-Route header field in any response to a PUBLISH request. The
* PUBLISH request MAY contain a Contact header field, but including
* one in a PUBLISH request has no meaning in the event publication
* context and will be ignored. A PUBLISH request may be sent within an
* existing dialog. In that case, the request is received in the context
* of any media session or sessions associated with that dialog. A new
* PUBLISH should not be sent (not a re-transmission) for the same
* Request-URI, until they have received a final response for the previous
* one or the previous PUBLISH request has timed out.
