I'm not too sure about using ESL in C, I have used it pretty much  
exclusively in perl.

originate {account_code=1234}sofia/profile/target at ip ....

You can get the list of the channels via "show channels" or bridged  
calls with "show calls"

 From there you have the UUID's you can call uuid_dump on them to get  
all the variables.

You could do this or setup a listener to get the events as they happen  
and keep the info you need.

http://docs.freeswitch.org/ (this should help, its under files list  
see esl.h)

I just find it interesting you're doing this with C.
