Re: [asterisk-users] AGI STREAM FILE and not blocking execution
Hello guys, Thank you for your answers I've seen in the ExternalIVR command : If the child process dies, ExternalIVR() will notice this and hang up the channel immediately (and also send a message to the log). That's not what I'd like, I want that if the process finish gracefully that the AGI scripts continues. I guess in this case that a new thread is the most convenient way, or, by any chance, do you know if asterisk will stack commands if a new agi command is received while the stream file is not finished ?

If you want non-blocking (asynchronous) commands, check out the ExternalIVR interface instead of using AGI. -- Jared Smith Training Manager Digium, Inc. ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

I did this a few years ago so that I could process a credit card authorization request while the "Please wait..." prompt was playing. I did it by creating a new thread (in C) in my AGI to play the prompt. Usually I get the card response before the prompt finishes playing so to the caller it's "instantaneous." -- Thanks in advance, - Steve Edwards sedwa...@sedwards.com Voice: +1-760-468-3867 PST Newline Fax: +1-760-731-3000 ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
[asterisk-users] AGI STREAM FILE and not blocking execution
Hello, I'm wondering if I can take benefits of long prompts to compute in the background the next step to be performed by Asterisk. Do you know what will be the behavior of asterisk if I send a STREAM FILE command immediately followed by another command ? Will asterisk stack commands or will it stop the first one to execute the second one ? If stops, is there any AGI library that handles this kind of behavior or should I code it myself using callback methods ?
