XML Configuration Access Protocol - Application Usages

Application Usages

The following applications are provided by XCAP, by using specific auid (Application Unique Id):

  • XCAP capabilities (auid = xcap-caps).
  • Resource lists (auid = resource-lists). A resource lists application is any application that needs access to a list of resources, identified by a URI, to which operations, such as subscriptions, can be applied.
  • Presence rules (auid = pres-rules, org.openmobilealliance.pres-rules). A Presence Rules application is an application which uses authorization policies, also known as authorization rules, to specify what presence information can be given to which watchers, and when.
  • RLS services (auid = rls-services). A Resource List Server (RLS) services application is Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) application whereby a server receives SIP SUBSCRIBE requests for resource, and generates subscriptions towards the resource list.
  • PIDF manipulation (auid = pidf-manipulation). Pidf-manipulation application usage defines how XCAP is used to manipulate the contents of PIDF based presence documents.

Famous quotes containing the word application:

    It is known that Whistler when asked how long it took him to paint one of his “nocturnes” answered: “All of my life.” With the same rigor he could have said that all of the centuries that preceded the moment when he painted were necessary. From that correct application of the law of causality it follows that the slightest event presupposes the inconceivable universe and, conversely, that the universe needs even the slightest of events.
    Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)
