I'm working on a manager client that I designed to hold open TCP connection to asterisk while it is running for varoius purposes. After being puzzled by unexpected behavior, I realized that the server closes the connection after it completes an "originate" action - or at least it does in the case of my test transactions. I solicit opinions: is this a feature or a bug? I've never seen that behavior and I've written several clients for the manager api. I guess it's possible that a particular combination of variables in the request could trigger an error that makes asterisk do that. I would try issuing the same originate by telneting in manually and see what happens. That way you can positively rule out your client being the one that's disconnecting. to which I reply: That's the first thing I did, and it confirmed the behavior (see below). To be precise, the disconnect occurs after the Newchannel report. So I infer that you think it is inappropriate. I've recoded the client so that it immediately reconnects. Anybody actually tried this? I can imagine that the developer might have assumed that such a request would likely come from a transient client, and that it would be helpful to terminate the connection. But if so, I don't think it's the right decision. Maybe it's just an oversight. Any other opinions? I'm too lazy to read the server side code.
