Thanks Stipe, This was really needed. I was wondering if you had thought of supporting HTTP "POST" and supporting XML based gateways in 'generic'.
This could be done by Adding an extra parameter to the group called url-template which would point to a config file and read the XML template escaped with similar parameters in the 'get-url'. What do you think ..?

The 'send-url' HTTP URI can used the same escape codes as sms-service's 'get-url' to pupulate the values from the msg struct passed from smsbox to bearerbox for MT submission. A sample group looks like this: group = smsc smsc = http system-type = generic port = 13015 send-url = "http://<foobar>/<uri>?from=%P&to=%p&text=%b" status-success-regex = "ok" status-permfail-regex = "failure" status-tempfail-regex = "retry later" where you see that the URL is poulated with values directly from the message struct and not within the gw/smsc/smsc_http.c module itself. This approach makes the calling of various HTTP APIs more flexible and doesn't require adding a new code fragment to the module. The result interpretation is done via 3 regex expressions matching against the HTTP response body to indicate the status of the message submission, either success, permanent failure or temporary failure. Which results in appropriate logging and handling of retry queues.
