Quick look @ Online Charging in Sailfin Communication server
Wrapping up development on Online and Offline charging API in Sailfin communication server. Here is a sample that shows a charging client accessing Ericsson Charging Server.
PartOne: Initial Request in Session based online charging.
View image to look at the source.
PartTwo: Update and Terminate Request in Session based online charging.
The below code snippet shows how to update a charging session and terminate one. The code snippet has comments to help you understand the code.

Highlights of Diameter support in Sailfin
1.Easy to use API , interfaces provided for AVP's defined in 3GPP specs and RFC's
2.Easy to query additional AVP's in a Grouped AVP.
3.Easy to add new AVP support using dictionary or annotations.
4.Ability to send messages in a synchronous or asynchronous manner(Listener support to receive asynchronous responses)
5.Interfaces defined to build messages as per 3GPP specifications.
6.Easy to build custom messages as shown in the code snippet.
7.Diameter Resource adapter.
8.Sailfin Admin console and Admin GUI support for local/remote configuration
9.TLS support.

If you have questions write to dev-AT-sailfin.dev.java-DOT-net.
Do you have any example using Ro interface (for exchange credit control messages)?

The above code snippet generates credit control messages.

Hi, is the Rf interface already available on Sailfin?

yes it is available on sailfin 2.0 as a value add, will make the javadocs available.

I downloaded Sailfin v2 b31e, but could not find the diameter classes in any jar. Are they in a separated project?

Hi Rafael,
We are planning to release Diameter as a value add for Sailfin (Sun GlassFish Communications Server) by the end of this calendar year. Diameter being a value add means, it will be available to customers with SGCS support subscription only and the code won't be open source.
If you are interested, we may be able to make it available to you under an evaluation license for free for a limited period of time. I am currently working on getting that in place.
