[Asterisk-Users] FW: question about prepaid app_prepaid

[Steve Murphy]

Just one question about the B() option:

When you say that it limits a call to X seconds, from the time the call
is bridged, as opposed to from the time the call is dialed, is that
comparing it to the L() option? I haven't plumbed the depths of the L()
command in the current CVS source, but is this the difference you are
referring to?

[From the apps/app_dial.c source code:

"      'L(x[:y][:z])' -- Limit the call to 'x' ms warning when 'y' ms
are left (repeated every 'z' ms)\n"
"                     -- Only 'x' is required, 'y' and 'z' are
optional.\n"
"                     -- The following special variables are
optional:\n"
"                       ** LIMIT_PLAYAUDIO_CALLER    (default yes) Play
sounds to the caller.\n"
"                       ** LIMIT_PLAYAUDIO_CALLEE    Play sounds to the
callee.\n"
"                       ** LIMIT_TIMEOUT_FILE        File to play when
time is up.\n"
"                       ** LIMIT_CONNECT_FILE        File to play when
call begins.\n"
"                       ** LIMIT_WARNING_FILE        File to play as
warning if 'y' is defined.\n"
"                     -- 'timeleft' is a special sound macro to auto-say
the time left and is the default.\n\n"
