Re: SV: [Asterisk-java-users] Problems with the GetVar action

[Stefan R. <sr...@re...>]

Mattias,

regarding the timeout you experience:
Do you send the GetVarAction from the event dispatching thread?
If yes, please run it in a new Thread to prevent a deadlock.
For more information on this topic see

You should be able to receive the same information via Asterisk-Java
that you get via telnet.
