[asterisk-users] API: how to bridge originated call?

[chester c young]

Moises

what you've done here looks great, but some examples or a little doc
would be really helpful - following the bug report, although
informative, is a very difficult way to extract specs.

in my case I want a user to be on-line all the time - the system will
dial and connect them and, when they're done, they select the next one.
 what I'm doing now is putting them into a loop with a g-option on the
dial.  the number it dials is set thru the api.  if the number's not
set it waits one second and loops again.

from my limited knowledge using a Bridge() function is much more
elegant, but I am in the dark as to what the context of the user, what
happens on hangup (can it fall thru?), etc.

maybe after this demo is done I'll solve this correctly using Bridge,
but alas little time now for experimentations.

thanks
