Currently only old 1.x branch version is supported. The code is distributed with custom built pjsip 1.4 dll file. No other versions were tested, however one can develop their own interop code version and plug it into the library. If you do, please, send me a pull request.
Things to come in order of importance:
To install pjsip4net via NuGet package manager execute a following command in the Package Manager Console:
Install-Package pjsip4netpjsip4net carries several native libraries that can not be automatically referenced from your managed projects. The package includes .targets file that copies these native libraries to the build output folder. That means, that if you would like these libraries to be copied to several project build folders (say, an integration test project), than you would need to include this package in every project you want to get binaries to.
Note: you may get a following warning after you included pjsip4net NuGet package:
Warning 103 There was a mismatch between the processor architecture of the project being built "MSIL" and the processor architecture of the reference "pjsip4net.Core, Version=0.2.0.20, Culture=neutral, processorArchitecture=x86", "x86". This mismatch may cause runtime failures. Please consider changing the targeted processor architecture of your project through the Configuration Manager so as to align the processor architectures between your project and references, or take a dependency on references with a processor architecture that matches the targeted processor architecture of your project. ConsoleApplication1The message is pretty self-explanatory. Make sure to change your project target to x86, otherwise you will get runtime error running your app on x64 platform.
Thanks to @amccool for making a first version of this package and pushing me to complete the work.
pjsip4net uses UpperCut build system to run builds. In order to build a library you have to run build.bat file first. If you want to know more about how it works, please refer to UpperCut documentation (http://uppercut.pbworks.com/w/page/9022442/FrontPage).
One can also find numerous examples here: https://gist.github.com/siniypin
There are a number of things one should configure in order to tune pjsip within particular environment. These things include:
There are several ways to configure library:
IConfigurationProvider. To plug it in, you have to tell the library to use it at startup phase (https://gist.github.com/siniypin/5951687). In fact the previous option is an implementation of this interface by CfgFileConfigurationProvider;The library tries to be pjsip version agnostic. At start-up phase it will scan through your application folder and will try to load an assembly that provides bindings to pjsip.dll. This feature is particularly useful to application developers who want to switch underlying pjsip library without changes to their application code. This behavior is enabled by default, so nothing has to be done. If you find yourself comfortable with well tested and proven to work correctly in your scenarios version of pjsip.dll you can bind it into your application at compile time phase by referencing an interop assembly from your application (https://gist.github.com/siniypin/7860351) .
pjsip4net leverages the dependency injection principle by means of pluggable DI-containers. It uses them to loosely couple the code and to enable automatic resolution of library's public contracts within applications that already use DI-containers. If no container is provided, the library will use its own simple container internally. Currently the only external container supported out of the box is Castle Windsor (http://docs.castleproject.org/Windsor.MainPage.ashx). To plug your own container instance into library you have to tell it to use it startup phase (https://gist.github.com/siniypin/7860556)
pjsip4net is NOT a thread safe library and users have to be careful using this library with frameworks that require synchronization with their main thread (think UI libraries). In order to not lock your UI use SynchronizationContext to dispatch data from pjsip4net events up to your presentation layer (https://gist.github.com/siniypin/5f403be8dc6e5b2f802e926c1b7855d3).
pjsip4net doesn't impose any restrictions upon logging framework, well, almost. To be precise it leverages the Apache Commons Logging facade (http://netcommon.sourceforge.net/) to hide a specific framework utilized by application, thus there is a restriction on frameworks supported by Common.Logging. Currently supported libraries are:
It is an application developers' responsibility to configure their favorite logging framework and to plug Common.Logging in (https://gist.github.com/siniypin/7860265).
The library comes with console application one can use to test if configuration options specified are correct within particular environment or to study application code. Almost every scenario is covered within this small application: registering accounts, issuing calls, sending instant messages, adding buddies, specifying codecs and media devices.
Running the test console within the managed debugger you may encounter an "vshost stopped working" error in certain scenarios. To avoid this problem please run test console application by running executable file your compiler generates and attach a debugger later (VS menu: Tools -> Attach to process...).
