[Freeswitch-users] Checking call is connected while bridged in lua

Hello Guys, I've had this "problem" since forever :) (I've been a freeswitch user for a long time) I'm using lua and I want to bridge a call and to check immediately whether the call is connected or not WHILE connected. lua execution continues only after "bridge" has returned something.. connected, busy, whatever... But i would like check the status of the call immediately after executing the bridge... Is this possible WITHOUT esl? Thanks! David
