Handling of a communication session
First Claim
1. A method of handling a communication session at a device, the method comprising:
- executing a communication session handling program at the device, the communication session handling program comprising a communication session handling part for handling the communication session and an interfacing part for linking with a communication session control interface;
executing an application at the device, the application providing, to a user of the device, a communication session control interface for the communication session handled by the communication session handling part of the communication session handling program, the application linking with the interfacing part of the communication session handling program;
detecting that the application has ceased to provide the communication session control interface; and
on detecting that the application has ceased to provide the communication session control interface, linking the interfacing part of the communication session handling program, without dropping the communication session, to a further communication session control interface provided at the device for continuation of the communication session handled by the communication session handling part of the communication session handling program.

Abstract
Method, device and computer program product for handling a communication session at a device, by executing a communication session handling program at the device, the communication session handling program comprising a communication session handling part for handling the communication session and an interfacing part for linking with a communication session control interface. An application executed at the device provides, to a user of the device, a communication session control interface for the communication session handled by the communication session handling part of the communication session handling program, the application linking with the interfacing part of the communication session handling program. On detecting that the application has ceased to provide the communication session control interface, the interfacing part of the communication session handling program links, without dropping the communication session, to a further communication session control interface provided at the device for continuation of the communication session handled by the communication session handling part.

18. A device for handling a communication session, the device comprising:
-
means for executing a communication session handling program at the device, the communication session handling program comprising a communication session handling part for handling the communication session and an interfacing part for linking with a communication session control interface; and means for executing an application at the device, the application providing, to a user of the device, a communication session control interface for the communication session handled by the communication session handling part of the communication session handling program, the application linking with the interfacing part of the communication session handling program; means for detecting that the application has ceased to provide the communication session control interface, wherein on detecting that the application has ceased to provide the communication session control interface, the interfacing part of the call handling program links, without dropping the call, to a further communication session control interface provided at the device for continuation of the communication session handled by the communication session handling part of the communication session handling program.
