Intellectual Property Rights
IPRs essential or potentially essential to the present document may have been declared to ETSI. The information
pertaining to these essential IPRs, if any, is publicly available for ETSI members and non-members, and can be found
in ETSI SR 000 314: "Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs); Essential, or potentially Essential, IPRs notified to ETSI in
respect of ETSI standards", which is available from the ETSI Secretariat. Latest updates are available on the ETSI Web
server (http://webapp.etsi.org/IPR/home.asp).
Pursuant to the ETSI IPR Policy, no investigation, including IPR searches, has been carried out by ETSI. No guarantee
can be given as to the existence of other IPRs not referenced in ETSI SR 000 314 (or the updates on the ETSI Web
server) which are, or may be, or may become, essential to the present document.
Foreword
This ETSI Standard (ES) has been produced by ETSI Technical Committee Services and Protocols for Advanced
Networks (SPAN).
The present document is part 2 of a multi-part deliverable covering Open Service Access (OSA); Application
Programming Interface (API), as identified below. The API specification (ES 201 915) is structured in the following
parts:
Part 1: "Overview";
Part 2: "Common Data Definitions";
Part 3: "Framework";
Part 4: "Call Control SCF";
Part 5: "User Interaction SCF";
Part 6: "Mobility SCF";
Part 7: "Terminal Capabilities SCF";
Part 8: "Data Session Control SCF";
Part 9: "Generic Messaging SCF";
Part 10: "Connectivity Manager SCF";
Part 11: "Account Management SCF";
Part 12: "Charging SCF".
The present document has been defined jointly between ETSI, The Parlay Group (http://www.parlay.org) and the 3GPP,
in co-operation with a number of JAIN™ Community (http://www.java.sun.com/products/jain) member companies.
The present document forms part of the Parlay 3.3 set of specifications.
The present document is equivalent to 3GPP TS 29.198-2 V4.5.0 (Release 4).

1 Scope
The present document is part 2 of the Stage 3 specification for an Application Programming Interface (API) for Open
Service Access (OSA).
The OSA specifications define an architecture that enables application developers to make use of network functionality
through an open standardised interface, i.e. the OSA APIs.
The present document specifies the Common Data Definitions of the OSA. The Common Data Definitions contain
data-types that are common across the rest of the OSA API. All aspects of the Common Data are defined here, these
being:
• Data Definitions
• IDL Description of the interfaces
2 References
The references listed in clause 2 of ES 201 915-1 contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute
provisions of the present document.

(Parlay 3)".
3 Definitions and abbreviations
3.1 Definitions
For the purposes of the present document, the terms and definitions given in ES 201 915-1 apply.
3.2 Abbreviations
For the purposes of the present document, the abbreviations defined in ES 201 915-1 apply.
4 Common Data Definitions
The following clauses describe each aspect of the Common data definitions.
The order is as follows:
• The Data Definitions section shows a detailed expansion of each of the data types associated with the methods
within the classes. Note that some data types are used in other methods and classes and are therefore defined
within the Common Data types part of the present document.
ETSI
7 ETSI ES 201 915-2 V1.4.1 (2003-07)
5 Common System Data Definitions
These data definitions are assumed to be provided by the client operating system.
5.1 Standard Data Types
The APIs assume that the following data types can be supported.
5.1.1 TpBoolean
Defines a Boolean data type.
5.1.2 TpInt32
Defines a signed 32-bit integer.
5.1.3 TpFloat
Defines a single precision real number
5.1.4 TpLongString
Defines a Byte string, comprising length and data. The length must be at least a 32-bit integer.
5.1.5 TpOctet
Defines an 8-bit quantity that is not translated during transmission.
5.1.6 TpOctetSet
Defines a Numbered Set of Data elements of TpOctet.
5.1.7 TpString
Defines a Byte string, comprising length and data. The length must be at least a 16-bit integer.
5.1.8 TpAssignmentID
Defines an assignment ID with a value that is unique within any instance of an implementation of a given interface,
irrespective of the method invoked on that interface instance. This ID may be used for example to identify single or
multiple event notifications enabled by a requesting interface implementation, or may be used by a requesting interface
implementation to modify or stop functionality associated with a previously supplied assignment ID, e.g. event
notifications, call load control, abort requests.
The assignment ID is identical to a TpInt32 type.
5.1.9 TpSessionID
Defines a session ID with a value that is at least unique within the context of a specific instance of an SCF. An instance
of an SCF is a single service manager instance plus the associated subordinate instances. For example, a single
MultiPartyCallControlManager instance plus all associated MultiPartyCall and MultiPartyCallLeg instances. The
session ID is used to identify different sessions (e.g. different call or call leg sessions) of an interface capable of
handling multiple sessions.
ETSI
8 ETSI ES 201 915-2 V1.4.1 (2003-07)
Example 1, myCallObject may implement the IpCall interface. If so, myCallObject may handle multiple call sessions,
and each call session will be identified by a call session ID value (e.g. 1, 2, 3) that is unique within the context of the
SCF instance.
Example 2, myCallAndCallLegObject may implement the IpCall and IpCallLeg interfaces. If so,
myCallAndCallLegObject may handle multiple call sessions and multiple call leg sessions. Each call session will be
identified by a call session ID value (e.g. 1, 2, 3) that is unique within the context of the SCF instance. Similarly, each
call leg session will be identified by a call leg session ID value (e.g. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6) that is also unique within the context
of the SCF instance. Because call session IDs and call leg session IDs are different data types, overlapping values are
permitted and their uniqueness still remains.
The session ID is identical to a TpInt32 type.
5.1.10 TpSessionIDSet
Defines a Numbered Set of Data Elements of TpSessionID.
5.1.11 TpAny
Defines a type that can hold any type. This is not restricted to only the primitive types.
5.1.12 TpAttribute
This is a Sequence of Data Elements containing the attribute name, type, and value. The attribute Value is
interpreted based on the value of the attribute Type.
Sequence Element Name Sequence Element Type Notes
The name of the attribute.
AttributeName TpString
The type of the attribute. Valid values for Type must include at
AttributeType TpAttributeType
least TpString, TpInt32 and TpFloat.
The values for the attribute. This model allows multi-valued
AttributeValue TpAny
attributes. Cannot be an empty list.

5.1.13 TpAttributeType
This data type is identical to a TpString, and is defined as a string of characters that uniquely identifies the type of an
attribute. Other Network operator specific capabilities may also be used, but should be preceded by the string "SP_".
The following values are defined.
Character String Value Description
NULL
An empty (NULL) string indicates no attribute type
P_STRING
Attribute type is type TpString.
P_INT32
Attribute type is type TpInt32.
P_FLOAT Attribute type is type TpFloat.

5.1.14 TpAttributeList
This is a Numbered List of Data Elements of type TpAttribute.
5.1.15 TpAttributeSet
This is a Numbered Set of Data Elements of type TpAttribute.

5.2 Other Data Sorts
The APIs assumes that the following data syntaxes can be supported.
5.2.1 Sequence of Data Elements
This describes a sequence of data types. This may be defined as a structure (for example, in C++) or simply a sequence
of data elements within a structure.
Example
The TpAddress data type may be defined in C++ as:
typedef struct {
...
