Following steps describe a possible scenario where an unregistered entity is trying to perform an inBand Registration on a server, manually or implemented in code e.g. aTalk.
-
The unregistered entity attempts to perform a login and received an message.
-
Upon received the error message, the system performs a check using AccountManager#isSupported() to determine if the server support inBand registration.
-
If the IBR is supported, the system proceeds to getRegistrationInfo() to determine the available methods (fields or DataForm) and the parameters required, including an OCR etc feedback if registration is captcha protected.
Note: step 2 may be omitted as per XEP-0077 section 3 Use Cases, step 3 will have the following effect (currently not feedback by AccountManager):
If the host does not support In-Band Registration, it MUST return a
As highlighted in the earlier discussion, the extensionElement in the isSupported() always return null. So it proceeds to use ServiceDiscoveryManager to determined the serverSupportsFeature, but receiving an exception showing in Bold in the log captured below as it requires an autheticated “user” as defined in AbstractXMPPConnection:
/**
- The full JID of the authenticated user, as returned by the resource binding response of the server.
-
- It is important that we don’t infer the user from the login() arguments and the configurations service name, as,
- for example, when SASL External is used, the username is not given to login but taken from the ‘external’
- certificate.
*/
protected EntityFullJid user;
However since the entity sign in process has failed, so it does not have the required authenticated “user” to perform the ServiceDiscover operation.
