• Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs)
How to Use This Publication
This document assumes that you are familiar with and have prior experience with Windows or
Linux operating systems and the C programming language. Use this document together with the
following: the Voice API Library Reference, the Standard Runtime Library API Programming
Guide, and the Standard Runtime Library API Library Reference.
The information in this guide is organized as follows:
• Chapter 1, “Product Description” introduces the key features of the voice library and provides
a brief description of each feature.
• Chapter 2, “Programming Models” provides a brief overview of supported programming
models.
• Chapter 3, “Device Handling” discusses topics related to devices such as device naming
concepts, how to open and close devices, and how to discover whether a device is Springware
or DM3.
• Chapter 4, “Event Handling” provides information on functions used to handle events.
• Chapter 5, “Error Handling” provides information on handling errors in your application.
• Chapter 6, “Application Development Guidelines” provides programming guidelines and
techniques for developing an application using the voice library. This chapter also discusses
fixed and flexible routing configurations.
• Chapter 7, “Call Progress Analysis” describes the components of call progress analysis in
detail. This chapter also covers differences between Basic Call Progress Analysis and
PerfectCall Call Progress Analysis.
• Chapter 8, “Recording and Playback” discusses playback and recording features, such as
encoding algorithms, play and record API functions, transaction record, and silence
compressed record.
• Chapter 9, “Speed and Volume Control” explains how to control speed and volume of
playback recordings through API functions and data structures.
• Chapter 10, “Send and Receive FSK Data” describes the two-way frequency shift keying
(FSK) feature, the Analog Display Services Interface (ADSI), and API functions for use with
this feature.
• Chapter 11, “Caller ID” describes the caller ID feature, supported formats, and how to enable
it.
• Chapter 12, “Cached Prompt Management” provides information on cached prompts and how
to use cached prompt management in your application.
• Chapter 13, “Global Tone Detection and Generation, and Cadenced Tone Generation”
describes these tone detection and generation features in detail.
• Chapter 14, “Global Dial Pulse Detection” discusses the Global DPD feature, the API
functions for use with this feature, programming guidelines, and example code.
