Doesn't work ... s is never nil. Type shows it as userdata<br>
even if Session failed. Specifically my test was:<br>
<br>
local s = freeswitch.Session (<br>
"{ignore_early_media=true,origination_caller_id_name=" ..<br>
caller .. "}loopback/" .. destination .. "/default/XML")<br>
<br>
stream:write (type(s))<br>
<br>
if s == nil then<br>
stream:write ("-ERR call failed\n")<br>
return<br>
end<br>
<br>
and I dialed an unreachable number.<br>
<br>

<br>
Checking s.ready() results in:<br>
<br>
[ERR] freeswitch_lua.cpp:102 session is not initalized<br>
<br>
if Session failed.<br>
<br>
What I'm looking for is a way to try to originate a call which doesn't<br>
throw ERR messages if the attempt fails.<br>
<br>
Explicitly calling session.originate seems to allow you to check if<br>
the call was successful ... is there a particular reason it's discouraged?<br>
<br>
I'm happy to avoid it if a better approach is available, however I'm<br>
having trouble finding one.<br>
