Hey Vitalie :)

Thanks for suggesting Lua. We are keen on Lua but does it support multi-threading. I could see this

But how stable is multi-threading in Lua ?

Currently, we are using python stackless for running multi-threaded IVR in FreeSWITCH but we are not happy :(

regards,
Anita

Why not to use powerful and fast lua scripts with DB access - example for DB select:
------------------------
subscriber = "1000";
my_field = '';
local dbh = assert(freeswitch.Dbh("db","fs_user","fs_password"));
dbh:query("select my_field1 from my_table1 where subscriber = '"..subscriber.."'", 
function(row) 
my_field = row.my_field1;
end);
dbh:release();
--do whatever you need here!!

obviously you need to configure ODBC for access, but this is described:

Hi

We are considering writing our own module for processing IVR in C. We are considering using mod_event_socket and then modify it to consume and produce the events internally instead of passing them to the socket. Is this a good idea?

I know FreeSWITCH already has a mod_dialplan_xml which can use mod_curl to communicate to the outside world for I/O and DB access. But ...

1) Does XML have all the power flexibility that will be needed for powerful IVR applications?

2) Does mod_dialplan_xml use a separate thread for each IVR execution ? What will be the overhead of interpreting the XML ?

3) Any more ideas ?

Thanks :)

regards,
Anita
