[asterisk-dev] Placing a new outbound call using C

[Wai Wu]

You are right. However, he still has to have some kind of user interface or an external application to talk to that code or have the code directly poll numbers from a database. I say just use a scheduler to create the .call files since as soon as the files get to the outbound directory, Asterisk will just eat them.

I think I understand now what you want. You may want to take a look at
pbx/pbx_spool.c , and implement there a list of "struct outgoing"s and
a method to enqueue outgoing calls there for specific times in the
future. So you can use the same thread that scans the .call files to
search in that list and generate the calls.

The important function there is launch_service(struct outgoing* )

Let me know if you have more questions.
