<div><div style="font-size:12pt;font-family:times new roman,new york,times,serif">Hi there,<br><br>I'm new to Asterisk. I need to call (from dialplan) a
macro or a gosub or an AGI upon one of the connected party in a bridged
call (on sip trunk) puts the call on HOLD. Anyhelp greatly appreciated<br><br>PS:
I looked into app_dial.c if I can capture AST_CONTROL_HOLD event, and
call a macro, however once ast_bridge_call() is called, Dial app does
not get mid-call events on the call (like
AST_CONTROL_HOLD/AST_CONTROL_UNHOLD)<br><br>I also tried to use frame_trigger.c but it didn't work too. I understand this is not a good approach.<br><br>Thanks,<br>Uma</div></div><br>--<br>
