INTRODUCTION
This is iaxclient, a portable IAX/IAX2 protocol telephony client library.
The library itself is in the directory "lib", located in the same
directory as this README file.
The library is designed to build for multiple platforms, and currently
supports Linux, MacOSX, Solaris, and Win32 platforms. It is designed to handle
the "backend" of IAX telephony operations, including call handling,
network protocols, audio encoding/decoding, and audio capture/playback.
In it's future, it may be extended to also handle video encode, decode,
capture and playback.
There are also sample clients, which use the library, included here.
Currently, these are all stored under the "simpleclient" directory, and
there are three of them:
simpleclient/testcall: A simple command-line oriented test program,
useful for testing and debugging. It supports
all of the same platforms as the library itself.
simpleclient/wx: A wxWindows (see wxwindows.org) based GUI
client. This client also supports all of the
same platforms as the library itself.
simpleclient/WinIAX: A MSVC/Win32 client. This only works with
Win32, obviously, and was contributed by
Faizan "Tili" Naqvi <faizan@tilizone.com>
simpleclient/tkiaxphone A command-line client, with a Tcl/Tk GUI
client that drives it. It should work on
all the platforms
The home page for iaxclient is "http://iaxclient.sourceforge.net/"
Up-to-date versions of iaxclient are available from a sourceforge SVN
repository.
CVS tarballs are also available as a link from the home page.

In addition to including libiax, IAXCLIENT is also based in part on code
included in test clients within libiax itself.
The included sub-libraries, including libiax, libiax2, gsm, portaudio,
and the sox-derived filters, were developed by others, as noted in above
and in their sources. We couldn't have built IAXCLIENT (or, it would
have been much more difficult!) without the great work from these
projects.
=======================================================================
BUILDING THE LIBRARY:
From the "lib" directory:
Linux: type "make" using standard gnu make/gcc
FreeBSD: type "gmake" using standard gnu make/gcc
MacOSX: type "make" using Apple Dev Tools (gnu make/gcc)
Win32: type "make" using Cygwin or Cygwin and MinGW (see below)
Solaris: type "gmake" using standard gnu make/gcc
For a shared library, make clean, then make shared.
You should receive a shared library (.dll, .so, .dylib, depending on your platform).
Win32 Cygwin/MinGW; General:
The Win32 build has been tested using the Cygwin Environment, and the
MinGW port of the GCC compiler suite. Previously, we only supported
compilation with the cygwin _and_ mingw environments installed. We are
moving (4/20/2005) to support having the cygwin environment alone, with
cygwin's own mingw packages, instead. Compilation of the basic sample
clients (but not iaxcomm), works fine with cygwin alone.
Cygwin Alone:
To install cygwin, download and run http://www.cygwin.com/setup.exe
You will need to install, in addition to the defaults, these packages:
gcc-mingw, gcc-mingw-core, (and for C++ clients, gcc-mingw-g++).
[please let the maintainers know if other non-default packages are
required].
There's lots of goodies available from cygwin.
Once you have this installed, open the cygwin shell, and build. The
library makefiles use the -mno-cygwin option, to create native Win32
binaries which do _not_ require cygwin.dll, or any special runtimes.
Cygwin and MinGW:
Previously, we advocated installing cygwin environment (for Gnu Make and
such), alongside the MinGW distribution itself, as outlined here. This
may still be necessary for the Wx-Windows based clients like iaxcomm.
http://www.mingw.org/mingwfaq.shtml#faq-usingwithcygwin for the
MinGW FAQ entry on using MinGW with Cygwin. You do need to make sure
that you install the Gnu "make" utility when you install cygwin.
It should probably also work if you use the MSYS environment and the
MinGW compiler, but this configuration is not as well tested.
=======================================================================
LIBRARY ORGANIZATION/DESIGN/CODING CONVENTION NOTES
The iaxclient library is designed to be a small, simple library that
encapsulates all that you need in order to make IAX protocol telephony
programs.
All exported symbols should be prefixed with "iaxc_", to avoid namespace
collisions/pollution in programs using this library.
The header file "iaxclient.h" should contain those declarations needed
by client programs, but not rely on other headers (i.e. those from
included libraries). The "iaxclient-lib.h" header file is the main
header file for the library's internal declarations.
=======================================================================
SAMPLE CLIENTS
The "testcall" sample program, provided in the simpleclient/testcall
directory (above this "lib" directory) is a simple client program which
should also be portable.
The Makefile for "testcall" will automatically build or update the
library when it it built, and the requirements for building testcall are
the same as for the library itself.
See README files in the other sample clients for directions for building
these.
=========================================================================
CODECS
The codec API is pretty straightforward; just use any of the existing
available codecs as a guide. The only place in the main code they
interface is the switch in audio_encode.c:create_codec
ILBC
Lots of people are enamored with iLBC lately, so I put this together for
them. Personally, I prefer speex, because it seems to sound just as
good, but has no license restrictions. With proper compilation options
(i.e. use it's SSE optimizations), it can be made even faster than the
iLBC reference.
There is glue to build iaxclient with iLBC available in the source, but
the source to iLBC itself is _not_ included. This is primarily because
of the licensing issues.
I'm not a lawyer, but it appears that iLBC's license would make it
impossible to build iaxclient and link it with a GPL front-end, meaning
a library built this way is no longer something that could be considered
LGPL. However, you could probably build a client using iLBC and
distribute it legally, if you follow the rules in the LGPL. So, this is
an issue for you and your legal counsel to figure out.
To actually build iaxclient with iLBC, though is very easy. Just make a
directory under lib named iLBC, and drop the iLBC reference sources into
it, then change CODEC_ILBC=0 to CODEC_ILBC=1 in the Makefile, and away
you go.
The source presently is set up for the draft-5 version.
The iLBC license and software can be found here
http://www.ilbcfreeware.org/software.html
(sources are also in asterisk).
=========================================================================
AUDIO DRIVERS
The supported audio driver for iaxclient is audio_portaudio; which uses
a snapshot of the portaudio v19 library (included, with some minor
modifications) to access native audio services on each platform.
It includes support for Windows (WMME), Linux (OSS, ALSA, JACK) and
MacOS X (CoreAudio).
There is a (presently broken) WMME-native audio driver which was used
during early development, and is no longer maintained. You probably
don't want to use this.
All three Linux PortAudio drivers are enabled by default and supporting
libraries need to be present on the system in order to build. If you
prefer to disable one or more of the drivers, use the USE_PA_* options
in the main Makefile.
Dmitry Panfilov has contributed a basic native ALSA driver for Linux.
Not all features are supported with this driver. It is not compiled in
by default, because this would add alsa libraries to the build and link
dependencies -- and we don't have a good way of communicating that to
applications (like pkg-config stuff, etc). To use it, though, you just
need to change AUDIO_ALSA=0 to AUDIO_ALSA=1 in the Makefile.
