To All:

We just received this email today asking about the .NET support that is to be released soon. We post it here so that others can get a fix on where we are in the release cycle.

Guys,

The last note on your support forum regarding the .NET media engine said it would be available "soon". That was on March 30th.

Do you have any more solid dates on it?

I'm particularly interested in your Single Line phone example. We've written our own C++/CLI wrapper for some of the media engine functionality but I'm really running into thorny conversion issues in my C# client when trying to access the RTP data after it is returned from the current DLL media engine.

I'm hoping you guys have already solved this in your example code.

Thanks!

Pete

Hi Pete,

Thanks for waiting for this response.

The testing that remains on the VOIP Media Engine .NET support is associated with:

1)
Making sure there are no resource leaks, native memory leaks, etc.

2)
Develop the docs for the managed code classes that are now supported that wrap the native media engine API.

3)
Complete a series of managed code example source apps.


We are working on this all week and will get a post to the support forum when we get .NET completed.

Because C# has limitation regarding bit level manipulations, the .NET support allows access to the RTP media packets as a raw byte array. This way the C# app can change and access the RTP headers and sample payload data as required. There will be no access restrictions on the app when it wants to access RTP packets via .NET. The app however will have to have knowledge of the RTP packet structure.

If we don't get the .NET support wrapped up very soon, we are going to make a pre-release version available to all so we are not holding anyone up.

Feel free to post these questions to the support forum. Others are probable wondering where we are with the .NET stuff too. We will post this there right after we send this to you.

Hi Craig,

All we can say is soon. We still have documentation to complete.

If you want to request a trial, we can get you that with the pre-released .NET support. That way you can start experimenting or developing now before the official release.

If decide to purchase now, we will still include the .NET support in a pre-released form. You then will get updated when the official release is out.

Hello,

I was wondering if I could get a trial with the .NET prerelease? I understand there will be no documentation.

Thanks, Justin.

Hello!

What date are you going to release official version of VOIP Media Engine with .NET support?
Is it close at all?

Hi tomach,

Yes it is close. All that needs to be finished is the documentation and software samples. We are working to get this out as soon as possible.

The "pre-released" .NET wrapper that we have made available however gives you all that you need to develop your own VOIP applications now. Thee is no need to wait. Any one who purchases the product now will get free updates when the official .NET version hits the street.

Thanks, Justin.

Hi Justin,

Thanks for posting. Officially the .NET support has been shipping since last fall with the current product image. The rub is that the current product distro does not have .NET class docs or oodles of code samples.

Regardless of this, there are many customers that are well on their way developing their .NET voip apps using the current product version.

The Software Developer’s reference for the NATIVE Win32 API explains the product pretty well – and this documentation translates almost 100% to the .NET version of the API – less the passing of handles for every native API call.

Seeing Visual Studio 2005 and 2008 have great class inspection right in the GUI, its not hard to look at the managed code class structure for a project’s VOIP Media Engine managed code reference and locate the equivalent native APIs.

The .NET support is being fully supported by us so if developers have any managed code questions, we answer them all via the support forum. Another useful too is to grab a support contract with us and we can get you any kind of sample code you ask for.

Note: We will (for sure) be offering .NET docs and sample – its just we are very busy adding cool new capabilities and features into the product that .NET docs and samples have taken a back seat. Eventually we will get it all officially released. It sucks but that’s the way it is. :)


Thanks,

Support

One other item:

Customers can immediately enter into a support agreement with us and we will code whatever sample application you may require. This way you will not have to wait for the official product release. Please use the email for at the following URL to inquire further:
