sip_hold_dialog(3SIP)				   Session Initiation Protocol Library Functions			     sip_hold_dialog(3SIP)

NAME
       sip_hold_dialog, sip_release_dialog - hold/release reference on a dialog

SYNOPSIS
       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lsip [ library ... ]
       #include <sip.h>

       void sip_hold_dialog(sip_dialog_t dialog);

       void sip_release_dialog(sip_dialog_t dialog);

DESCRIPTION
       For functions that return a pointer of type sip_str_t, sip_str_t is supplied by:

	 typedef struct sip_str {
	      char *sip_str_ptr;
	      int  sip_str_len;
	 }sip_str_t;

       The sip_str_ptr parameter points to the start of the returned value and sip_str_len supplies the length of the returned value.

       The sip_hold_dialog() function is used to hold a reference on the dialog. A dialog is not freed if there are any references on it.

       The  sip_release_dialog()  function  is	used  to  release  a reference in the dialog. If the reference in a dialog drops to 0 and it is in
       SIP_DLG_DESTROYED state, it is freed.

RETURN VALUES
       The value of errno is not changed by these calls in the event of an error.
