To enable multitasking support of iPhone OS, set PJ_IPHONE_OS_HAS_MULTITASKING_SUPPORT to 1. Then application can use the API pj_activesock_set_iphone_os_bg() to set iPhone OS background mode setting. Setting the value to 1 will enable TCP active socket to receive incoming data when application is in the background. The default value of this setting is PJ_ACTIVESOCK_TCP_IPHONE_OS_BG. By default, both these settings are enabled on iPhone OS 4 when you run configure-iphone (see http://trac.pjsip.org/repos/wiki/Getting-Started/iPhone).

In the case of an incoming phone call, your application would typically alert the user immediately using a local notification. (See ipjsua's pjsua_app.c:on_incoming_call() callback for example).
