[SFLphone] placeCall's callID

[Emmanuel Milou]

Hello Juan,

The callID is a random number. The GNOME client generates it like that:
   
    call_id = g_new0(gchar, 30);
    g_sprintf(call_id, "%d", rand());

in the create_new_call method (/sflphone-client-gnome/src/call.c/).

If you want to make a call directly through D-Bus, the command is:

dbus-send   --type="method_call"                            \
                     --dest="org.sflphone.SFLphone"                  \
                    "/org/sflphone/SFLphone/CallManager"            \
                    "org.sflphone.SFLphone.CallManager.placeCall"   \
                    string:"$ACCOUNTID"                             \
                    string:"$CALLID"                                \
                    string:"$TO",

with $ACCOUNTID, a valid account ID from your $HOME/.sflphone/sflphonedrc
         $CALLID, the call ID, generated for instance like that : 
${RANDOM}$$
         $TO, the callee.

Please have a look at the shell script at /tools/sflphone-callto/ in the 
git repository for further details.
