TEL: protocol (3CX voip)

[skiman]

Hi,

I would like to use the 'TEL:<phone number>' protocol of windows to call numbers with my 3cx app. I can't find any info about how to do this.

Is someone already using this?

I don't know if this helps:

Hi Roger,

Thanks for the link. This is what I already configured on my PC. When i open a website with a phonenumber, I can dial it immediately.

I can't find how to use this from xbase++.

My 3CX phone app is the default program for the TEL protocol. I tried with the following as I expected this would open it.

Code: Select all

function telprotocol(cTelefoon)    //  {|| telprotocol("050353100") }
******************************* 
DllCall( "Shell32.dll"   , DLL_STDCALL, ;
					"ShellExecuteA", 0, Chr(0), "tel:"+cTelefoon, Chr(0), Chr(0), 3)  
return .T.

But nothing happens when this is executed.

Hi,

This should be a solution. It is not using the TEL protocol.

C:\ProgramData\3CXPhone for Windows\PhoneApp>CallTriggerCmd.exe -call 050353100

                                       "open", ;
                                       cPath + cFile, ;
                                       cParameter, ;
                                       CURDIR(), ;
                                       SW_HIDE )   //   SW_SHOWNORMAL

When I do:

start tel:07666545432

It does appear to open the default app assigned to the Tel protocol...

Then DC_SpawnUrl("tel:07666545432") should do the same ?

Hi,

@Regan, are you doing that at the command prompt? This isn't working on my PC.

Hi Jimmy,

I never specify the EXE when opening documents known by Windows.
Example:
DllCall('Shell32.dll', 32,'ShellExecuteA', 0, Chr(0), 'c:\test\test.pdf', Chr(0), Chr(0), 3) opens the PDF with the default program.

No, this isn't working on my system.
