[Freeswitch-users] ESL & DTMF

[Antonio Teixeira]

Hello Michael.

Yes we are doing ivr stuf using sync , mainly because we have some routines
that require step by step and timing processing , like PIN verification ,
Security Clearance , etc.
This is mainly why i use mode sync ( I'm not telling you I'm right just
trying to give you an ideia of what we are doing)

>From my understanding , async is a full dump to FS of all the commands for
that DP like :
Answer()
Speak (' Hello World')
GetDigits()
now if the person presses 2 , hears a menu with more options and presses
another key.
What will call for example a program that send an SMS to give you an ideia.


Example :
Answer
Speak('Press 1 or 2')
GetDigits()

if dtmf == 1:
speak('bye')
elif dtmf == 2:
SendMySMS('blahblah')
speak ('now pres 3 4 or 5')
get digits()
if dtmf == 3:
etc , etc etc.


With step by step this is simple ( except the GetDigits Part)
