It is not possible to “initiate a new one and take control again” when working on outbound mode.

 

In outbound mode, your application will be listening for incoming connections and  FreeSWITCH acts as a ‘client’ of your application. If you drop the socket connection, there’s no way to regain control of the connected call other than having additional <action application=”socket” /> entries on the dialplan, as FreeSWITCH will, by default, move to the next action on the dialplan if the socket connection is dropped and the current action is completed.

 

For example: if your application sends a ‘record’ command (to record audio) with a timeout of 15 seconds then closes the socket connection, once the record command is completed FreeSWITCH will just move to the next action on the dialplan. There’s no way for you to regain control of this call in outbound mode, other than having additional ‘socket’ commands on the dialplan, and even if you have those you’ll have to figure out how to reestablish the ‘context’ of the call within your application.

So, what it comes down to is that there is no mechanism in freeswitch which will also end the call when the ESL connection is disconnected for any reason?!

 

I guess I’ll have to write my application so that it will “never” close the connection by mistake (read bug) and if it does initiate a new one and take control again.

When the call is bridged you can close the ESL connection and the call remains connected.

Well, I think it depends on which action is being executed on the call leg. If it is a park(), or bridge() I don’t think it is possible.

 

As I understand it, FreeSWITCH will ‘cede’ the control of the call to an external (ESL) application when the “socket” action is executed on the dialplan. If the socket gets disconnected, I would suspect that the next action on the dialplan will be executed once the current action is finished, but I don’t know/am not sure that if, for example, the call is parked (or bridged to another leg) by the application, the current operation will be canceled (call un-parked or un-bridge) because the socket is now closed.

Hello,

 

Is there a way to disconnect the call(s) managed by an ESL connection when the ESL connection gets disconnected in outbound mode?

 

Regards,
