I believe I am running an AGI (to put users in a conf) before the

exten X,1,run agi to put users in conf

How do I have in the dial plan ConfBridge() and someplace
run an AGI that brings the users I want into that Conf.
I cannot delay in the AGI and wait for the conf because
the conf is not built until I return from the AGI...
Any thoughts?
Thanks,

Make your AGI script fork itself; have the child process detach, and the
parent process exit. Then, the AGI call will return quickly to the dialplan;
and meanwhile, the script can continue in the background at its own leisure.
Example code (Perl) follows:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use Asterisk::AGI;
my $child_pid;
my $AGI = new Asterisk::AGI;
my %params = $AGI-ReadParse();
$SIG{CHLD} = IGNORE;
if ($child_pid = fork) {
# This is executed in the parent process
exit;
}
elsif (defined $child_pid) {
# This is executed in the child process
close STDIN;
close STDOUT;
close STDERR;
# Now we are detached
#
# This is where we do the funky stuff
#
exit;
}
else {
# Oh, s#!t
die Could not fork: $!;
};
# We should never, ever get here
exit;
