Well I have been dabbling with the code..  I like it..  Im running into some issues however. Does anyone know where I can get some examples of the DLL usage with VB6?

Unfortunately you can't use the dll directly from vb6. However don't panic, there are 2 solutions:
 
1. to use Babar Shafiq's excellent OCX -- this is the easy way
2. to write a "wrapper" dll that exposes the methods to VB and handles the callback
 
Method (1) is easy. The only problem is that you have to wait for him to update it when he can, and also it has a slightly annoying taskbar icon.
 
Method (2) depends on your capabilities. I'll give you a pointer though: if you download "Dante's DIAX" iax phone, it comes with a wrapper dll called wiax that you can use with vb6. Unfortunately Dante's moved on to better projects, however, if you ask him nicely he may give you the source of his wrapper and you can update it to the latest releases of iax. I did it once, unfrtunately since then I've had a crash and lost all the files I had used.
 
I've been writing here for about 2 years asking if someone would wrap the dll into an ocx and put the code in the svn (I promise I would do it, I just DON'T have the competence)..
 
Maybe, just maybe (again it's above my head), you can use the .net c# wrapper example in the svn to write a vb6-compatible dll..
 
Also, if you google around, you'll find a nice vb.net wrapper class which, although maybe not up to date, can certainly be used as a starting point.

This is the problem at hand now.. ; I spoke to Babar and his OCX isnt working on my machine running Vista.  When it calls the routines to talk to the sound card it crashes..  If I comment out those portions of the code then it works fine. ; So the OCX is out.  As far as the other.  I guess wrapper will be the best way to go..  Didnt want to have to deal with the whole coding more than what I needed but eh.. so be it..

Just wanted to make a general comment here: if anybody is interested in developing wrappers around iaxclient, either in the form of a dll or an ocx or whatever other technology, you are more than welcome.  Many of the regular iaxclient contributors, myself included, do not have the necessary skills and/or drive to go that way.  However, we are interested in anything that would help the adoption of iaxclient and having interfaces to as many development environments as possible is a good thing.  

So if anybody wants to create and maintain a wrapper, we would be more than happy to add it to our repository and make it available with the standard iaxclient distribution. Just send a message to this list if you are interested in contributing.

If you wrap let me know! ; I need it too..
I've just written to Dante to ask him if he would (or let me) publish the source of his wrapper.. It's about 3 years old but the concept still applies, I used it to develop a soft phone for our office, and it hasn't missed a beat in 3 years!
 
Let's hope he approves, then maybe it can be put in the distro and maintained by someone who understands such things...

Dear Francesco.
 
You can publish the source code for my wrapper (wiax.dll) used by DIAX.
Anyway, it is already available from the beginning on my page at:
or directly accessible here:
It is obsolete for the current version of iaxclient library (as DIAX is still based on an older version), but can be easily updated.
 
For any help please send me a mail directly, as I do not read this list each day.
 
Best regards,
Dan
