caller id problems

XML, Perl, Python, and other languages can be discussed here, even if it isn't PHP (We might forgive you).

caller id problems

Post by ozmodiar »

Does anyone know what languages are capable of getting caller id information from a modem or isdn? If so, could you tell me how to do it or recommend somwhere I could find out?

Cheers

hmmm.....sorry but the only simple solution I can offer you by heart is for receiving faxes on linux with mgetty where you can specify a fax-notfiy-program that is called with the parameters <success> <sender id> <# pages> [<filename of page xyz>]*.
But you may take a look here. It seems to be a appropriate introduction to this subject.

I did this once for win32/capi but since a friend of mine had a better solution and I no real use for it, I gave it up :(

You should be able to write the program in VB, Delphi or C++, if you are on a Window machine.

These links might help.
