TAPI/TSP C#

[christianselten]

Hello,

I've been programming simple things in C# for a while now. But currently I'm working on a project. What I want to do is detect when there is an incoming phone-call and get the number that's calling me. For so far I tried searching the web for a while but no success.
So there are two things I don't understand:
- How do I add a TSP?
- How do I receive information the signal/TAPI?

Description situation:
When there is a phone-call incoming it first get to a telephone central who will direct it to a telephone. While he redirects it it also sends a signal to the computer. It's a Panasonic telephone central.

I hope someone can give some answer or advice.

Thanks in Advanced,
Christian Selten

Christian,
TSPs ar either added manually by the user via Control Pabnel / Phone and
Modem Options / Advanced / Add...
or programmatically via lineAddProvider(), e.g. from a setup.exe.

You want to take a look at the MS samples from P-SDK:
http://www.tapi.info/default.aspx/TAPI/PSDKSamples.html
and the TAPI test tools (with open source) from JulMar:

Regarding TAPI and .NET see KB article "841712 - Telephony Application
Programming Interface (TAPI) functionality is not supported from managed
code".
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/841712

Please have a look at the following freely available TAPI2 (#2,3,4) / TAPI3
(#1) wrappers:

#1) JulMar's ITAPI3 - TAPI 3.0 wrapper for .NET 2.0
existing TAPI3.0 code based on TAPI3 interop can easily be ported
http://www.julmar.com/blog/mark/CategoryView,category,Tapi.aspx

#2) JulMar's ATAPI.NET.
TAPI 2.x managed library for application development
http://www.julmar.com/tapi/

#3) Helen Warn's C# TAPI2 Wrapper is now available as version 1.2.0.1 with a
small TestApp both for Visual Studio 2005.
Helen agreed that I put the wrapper and sample on my server for download:

Thanks Andreas.
I didn't watch to all the things, but it's really useful.
Maybe in the future I got more questions.
Until then I'll be busy with looking through all the stuff.
Thanks again.
