[asterisk-dev] AMI losing events

[Jim Capp]

Gabriel,

    I am working on a project where I have a single java thread reading 
all the events and collecting them into "channel variables" which are 
then returned via http in xml.  When processes try to read the xml data, 
the java process will provide an immediate response and subsequent 
requests will block until there is a change in the data.

This technique smooths over problems with lost events and provides a 
method for satisfying hundreds of XML requests without impacting the 
Asterisk server.

I am curious to know what kind of events are being lost and whether the 
problem is one of the Asterisk manager interface being overloaded with 
too many requests.  If not, then I am also concerned about the 
effectiveness of my particular solution.

Can you tell me more about what is being lost?

Thanks,

Jim
