coming back to the add_rr_param issue, bogdan said:
For the moment "add_rr_param" cannot be called from failure route due
implementation limitations - to be able to add params after the RR was
inserted, a pointer to the lump is kept in a static variable; when
adding params, the lump body is modified.
In failure route there are tow problems:
1) you cannot use anymore the static variable to identify the RR
lump; maybe a solution will be to set type for the RR lumps and try to
find them;
2) altering a lump from shm mem is very problematic - all of them
are allocated in a single mem chunk; no idea how to go around
this.....for the moment.....
how about the following solution:
- record_route is called in branch route for each branch separately,
i.e., there is no rr header in the request before execution of branch
route
- instead of calling add_rr_param after record_route call, assign rr
param into an AVP BEFORE record_route is called or give rr param as
argument to record_route call
this should solve the above mentioned implementation problems, because
rr parameter would not need to be stored anywhere (except perhaps an
avp).
