New features:
- Doxygen documentation for Activa framework & TSP
- Implemented QueueAdd, QueueRemove and QueuePause. See doxygen documentation.
- Added QueueAdd, QueueRemove and QueuePause as LOGIN, LOGOUT, READY and NOTREADY features at TSP level. Using feature makecall codes.
- Refactoring: encapsulate more TSP functionality in asttapiclass class.
- Refactoring: adapt astprovider such as it provides services equivalent to AMI and fires asterisk-like events. So handling moved to upper astcstaprovider
- FIX: repair setup: register tsp and create start-menu-entries
- FIX: using MS dialer.exe: when closing app it warns that a call still exists. Debbugging shows that a line_drop fails because TapiCall has been already dropped. SOL: line_drop could return ok even if call is not there
- Removed callednumber filtering in originate. Now characters are allowed in called addresses: ie: "Benjamin" or 'abc5560'. tsp layer still removing 'T' or 'P' prefix in response to suggestion from B.Stocker in http://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=3840120
- Now will better handle tcp disconnections: report to upper layer/application, clean-up provider and model, when onlinkdown close all csta&tsp callmaps and monitor
- Basic infrastructure to allow for multiple lines (registry-based). Connect once, on a one-stream-multiple-devices model.
- Implemented basic void setForward() and setFeature()
- FIX: if calling to a wrong number there is no call progress indication and line does not return to idle. ... read more

AstProvider framework and ActivaTSP 1.0

Activa package first release includes a basic framework that enables integration of Asterisk with your C++ applications.

The package also includes an Asterisk TSP we called Asterisk ActivaTSP. This TSP enables integration of TAPI third party applications and Asterisk. The TSP itself has been developed using the basic ASTProvider framework.

So for instance you could initiate outbound calls through Asterisk using your Microsoft Outlook and other applications. Call screen-popup is also supported.... read more
