I just dont Understand From the text of Android Website.

It said,

"Android provides an API that supports the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP). This lets you add SIP-based internet telephony features to your applications"

Which then I questioned myself, can we use this SIP API in the Ad-Hoc connection of two Android devices connected each other?

What about,

"Each participant in the application's communication session must have a SIP account. There are many different SIP providers that offer SIP accounts."

an Account? What is that for? I assumed the account is for handling the data translated from and to (client-server) communication.

But what about if I used for the Ad-Hoc TWo android communication, that Has no Internet connectivity? I mean, Can I used SIP Api for this? Or i should use something else...?

This mean Android now have build-in SIP stack API.\nSo if you want to build SIP applications like SIP softphone, then you can use Android API for SIP without using a thirtparty SIP stack.\n\nMany applications build with SIP for example: PJSIP, CSipSimple, Linphone ...\n\nAfter have SIP application (SIP client) you must have account to login and make call with another SIP clients.",
