Re: [Asterisk-java-users] How to use A-J to inject input to Dialplan?

[Greg H. <gre...@gm...>]

Hi Yves,

I am sorry to be confusing.

My application has a GUI interface that includes a dialer module.  The user
first would dial the conference room number (1024).  The lower layer A-J
interface would use Originate() to create a call to that conference room.
 The Meetme app would run in the dial plan and play out the request for a
PIN.  The user would then enter that PIN ("123") and the A-J layer would
take that input and use PlayDtmfAction to drive it to Meetme.  So it's up
to the user to enter the correct PIN to be sent in PlayDtmfAction, to be
allowed to enter room 1024.

Like I said, if the user dialed another SIP extension like 1000, then once
the connection is made further dialer input will get successfully passed
via PlayDtmfAction to that other SIP endpoint.

As far as bridging the extension, I think that might not be done in the
dialplan until the PIN is accepted.  If I request channel info for the
active call, the destination channel ID first is 1024@from-internal:1.  In
cases where the PIN gets accepted, the destination will be different when
the channel info gets requested again (something like STARTMEETME/1024).
 Since I am hearing the announcement to request PIN, I think I should have
a bridge in place but then why doesn't app_read.c collect the digits I
enter?

As far as OriginateToApplication, I understand it will not alter the dial
plan.  I just thought that since I specify meetme as an app there, then
further calls to the channelID associated with this session may be able to
direct things like DTMF to meetme.  Just a guess though!

Thanks again,

Greg
