[Freeswitch-dev] api getvar / setvar problem

Yes, own client, c#, I have used some of the esl code to work out how
to use event socket.

Ah that explains it, I believe what I am doing wrong is after I have
read the headers, I am expecting to just be able to read another line,
but the last line is not terminated with a new line, and I must use
the content length to read it.

I have it working aside from dealing with the responses

Thanks very much

Bob
