Jiplet 0.1.0b released
Jiplet updated with latest JAIN-SIP API and NIST SIP stack
August 23, 2007,
Raleigh, NC.
We are pleased to announce the public release of Jiplet
Container
r0.1.0b. In this release, we have updated the underlying SIP stack
with the latest reference implementation from the National Institute of
Standards and Technology (NIST). The stack uses the most recent
JAIN-SIP API version 1.2. This significantly enhances the capabilities
for jiplet developers in terms of SIP messaging and includes such
features as IMS header support. Also, this version of the stack has
undergone significant performance measurement and improvement.
Jiplet is short for Java SIP Servlet. The Jiplet Container is an
open-source container for server-side SIP applications. An application
developer can create a SIP application written in Java using the Jiplet
API and deploy the application in the container. The container provides
a number of framework services including support for SIP message
parsing and formatting, scoped variables, authentication and
authorization, thread-pooling, logging, custom class loading,
management interface, etc. It enables application developer to create
server-side SIP applications using a component-based model similar to
that envisioned by the J2EE architecture. In fact, it fits very well
with the J2EE paradigm for software development and deployment. The
Jiplet Container software can either be run as a standalone Java
application or deployed as a service residing in a J2EE server. When
running as a J2EE service, the Jiplet Container can access many of the
features offered by the J2EE server. In addition, The Jiplet Container
is built with the service provider model in mind. In this model, a
service provider can host customized SIP applications from their
customers in a secure manner similar to the servlet hosting offered by
many service providers.
The following are the highlights of the release.
- The software has been tested with Jboss 4.0.5.GA.
- The final release (version 1.2) of the NIST SIP
stack
Reference Implementation has been incorporated into the Jiplet
Container and reference applications.
- The new listening point architecture has
been integrated into the Jiplet Container SIP connector. One connector
can now use more than one IP address for SIP messaging.
- Convenience methods have been added to the Jiplet class
for jiplet developers to handle additional listening points and SIP
providers.
- The Jiplet Container message proxying has
been updated to work in a multi-homed environment.
