[Freeswitch-users] problem using mod_managed under linux

[R H]

Hey Covici,

I currently have a DLL that uses 3 IAppPlugin interfaces, 2 IApiPlugin
interfaces, and 2 ILoadNotificationPlugin interfaces. I build the dll on a
separate machine but using this system I am able to deploy the dll to a
running FreeSwitch and have it unload/reload the dll on the fly without any
problems.Its been working great for a week or two. A few things you may want
to keep in mind:

1) DLL's deployed in the managed directory are not exactly going to work
well if they have dependencies on each-other as you never know which one
will get loaded first. (Well, if you only drop them in 1 at a time it would
probably work)

2) Any crash in FreeSwitch I have seen is because of the above issue, or
because of some uncaught exception thrown from my code. If you look at
your FreeSwitch logs or start FreeSwitch by hand and watch the cli you
should see the exception that killed it.

When I run FreeSwitch as a service even my script in /etc/init.d/ has to cd
into the mod directory and then start the server. Hope this helps!

Ryan
