[asterisk-users] Slightly more advanced dialling..

[Zeeshan Zakaria]

Hi,

I have done it a few times. Just posted a small blog about it with code.
Check it at www.ilovetovoip.com/?p=322. I hope it'll help you.

You might want to explain what you are trying to do.

Dial() can handle this by using something like SIP/peer1&SIP/peer2
The first one that answers wins. Look at the Dial option M to run a macro
after the call has been answered.

Also have a look at FollowMe() since it can do parallel calling.
Or read up how to create a bunch of .call files using System() and a
script.

Do you mean to say: "I want all dialed numbers to keep on ringing until
they are answered, regardless if the initial callers has already been
taken care of by the first extensions that reacted"?

In the Asterisk world, and usually in the PBX world in general, pick up
has specific and different meaning (see *8 or app_pickup).
