[asterisk-dev] Unified Asterisk Interface

[Jim Capp]

David,

Please check out the "asterisk-java" project: 
http://asterisk-java.org/development

It is an excellent package that while not providing a single api, it 
does provide both AMI and AGI in a single programming environment.  I 
had written my own AMI interface in java before discovering the AGI/AMI 
interfaces in asterisk-java.  I was able to easily integrate my AMI 
interface with the asterisk-java AGI.

While it may not be exactly what you are looking for, I think you will 
find it very useful.

Jim
