[Asterisk-java-users] Question on Originate call.

[Jan du T. <jan...@de...>]

Hi.

Currently I am using the Originate class to connect into a MeetMe room, 
setting the application and data of the originate accordingly.
For the Originate action to work you need to supply the channel on which 
to connect the outgoing call to.
For example I have a sip user called Bob, who wants to connect to the 
meetme room. So I configure the Origanate with "SIP/Bob" and it works.

The problem is the program might not always know the correct channel name...

In the extensions.conf, I have an extension setup for Bob as follows :
    exten => 5005,1,Dial(SIP/Bob,20,tr)

This extension will always be known to the system.
Is their a way to successfully origante the call for Bob to connect to 
the MeetMe room, using the 5005 extension and no channel name.

Thanks in advance.
