[asterisk-users] Asterisk API

[Michelle Dupuis]

As you've probably discovered, most of the API toolkits are half baked and poorly maintained.  The Java interface is not great for performance and is suffering from the above too.

>From our experience (including customer specific and commercial apps)  using the AMI directly is the best way to go.  Next you also have to develop in a language suitable to the throughput needs of whatever you are building.  If you need performance, I'd recommend developing in C++ and building your own AMI interface to suit your needs.  (If you use boost or Qt then it will speed your development time).
