Interface MobileAddress

All Superinterfaces:

Address

public interface MobileAddress

extends Address

A MobileAddress interface represents what we commonly think of as a "telephone number." In the mobile world, the telephone number depends of the subscription and so often of the SIM card.

Address and Call Objects

Address objects represent the logical endpoints of a telephone call. A logical view of a telephone call views the call as originating from one Address endpoint and terminates at another Address endpoint.

Address and Events

In the core package, the Address is described as static. In the mobile world, a subscription (and so the phone number) may appear or disappear with the insertion or extraction of the support (subscription included in the SIM card), but the MobileAddress object life is the same as the MobileProvider object life (as in the core). If the subscription changes, it will generate an event (through the MobileProviderListener).
