[Freeswitch-users] Using mod_managed to create full FreeSWITCH modules

[Michael Giagnocavo]

Are you looking to run when mod_managed shuts down? Or when your managed plugin reloads, or something else? (mod_managed is not unloadable, so I don't believe it gets any notification of shutting down.)

As far as interop in general, it's usually possible. However, a lot of the FreeSWITCH code uses macros, and they aren't available via SWIG. So in those cases, you'll either need to manually reconstruct the macro, or write some interop code in C/C++ to do what you want, then expose that via SWIG (or, if you do it nicely, just P/Invoke it directly).

Some of the native code generates some pretty ugly structures; you will probably need to become friends with the Marshal class and pass around a lot of IntPtrs to get things going.

As far as I know, no one has built a non API/App with mod_managed.

The wiki says:
mod_managed exposes nearly the entire FreeSWITCH C API (courtesy of SWIG). This allows creation of not just API functions and call apps, but any type of module that FreeSWITCH supports (codecs, endpoints, etc.). The types are in the FreeSWITCH.Native namespace. FreeSWITCH.Native. The FreeSWITCH.Native.freeswitch type contains static members to access all the functions.

Does anybody have a starting point they can share for a non-API/APP managed module. I'd like to build something that runs in the SWITCH_MODULE_SHUTDOWN_FUNCTION/SWITCH_MODULE_SHUTDOWN_FUNCTION/SWITCH_MODULE_SHUTDOWN_FUNCTION lifecycle. How can this be done?

Thanks!
Josh
