[Freeswitch-users] ESL Log to console

[David Villasmil]

Hello,

Using ESL, at what point can one start sending commands to the channel?
It seems impossible for me to issue commands at

EVENT: CHANNEL_CREATE
STATE: CS_ROUTING

It maybe important to mention I don't have anything runing in the dialplan!
My script connects via ESL to FS and wait for events (incoming calls, etc)
and will issue commands like bridge the calls to their destination, etc.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

David
