The tapi spec is somewhat unclear on how lineForward actually works.  As a result, applications behave different.  Some assume that setting call forwards actually modify the current settings.  Others assume that they replace the settings.  This cannot be known by the service provider.  <br/><br/>To work around this issue, a new configuration option ClearFwdOnSet was introduced.  If set to a non-zero DWORD value, the replace-semantic is assumed.

The TSP fails during startup when a user with a very large user record is monitored.  This may happen for users which store larger personal phone configs.  Moving the phone config fully or partly in to a template object may help to work around this problem.

The TSP will detect 3PTY situation on IP phones and announce them to the TAPI application appropriately.  Some TAPI applications however get confused with 3PTY calls and cannot handle them correctly.  If this feature is enabled, 3PTY calls will be shown as normal unrelated calls to the TAPI application.

V8 Change Requests

These are change requests applicable for TAPI V8, which are considered for implementation Definition

New Features

Support for multi-Party Conferences

Status Closed
Id 53063

Allows users to set up a conference. Involves lineSetupConference, lineAddToConference,lineRemoveFromConference. This might be implemented using PBX bc-conf objects.

tapi: notify held/retrieved status on far end

Status Closed
Id 53800

allows for better visibility of transfer operations on the transferred end.

Bug Fixes

V8 Hotfix 1

The V8 TAPI, Hotfix 1. Definition

New Features

config option ClearFwdOnSet to accomodate different behaviour when setting call forwards

Status Closed
Id 60202

The tapi spec is somewhat unclear on how lineForward actually works. As a result, applications behave different. Some assume that setting call forwards actually modify the current settings. Others assume that they replace the settings. This cannot be known by the service provider.

To work around this issue, a new configuration option ClearFwdOnSet was introduced. If set to a non-zero DWORD value, the replace-semantic is assumed.

Bug Fixes

lineForward() did not work for lines with no registration

Status Closed
Id 60186

Call forwards could only be set if there was at least one registration on the line.

trap when monitoring user with very large user record

Status Closed
Id 60188

The TSP fails during startup when a user with a very large user record is monitored. This may happen for users which store larger personal phone configs. Moving the phone config fully or partly in to a template object may help to work around this problem.

V8 Hotfix 2

The V8 TAPI, Hotfix 2. Definition

New Features

Write Dump File when TSP crashes

Status Closed
Id 68452

Enables better problem analysis

Bug Fixes

Trap when invalid destination address is dialled

Status Closed
Id 68454

For example, a call to "^1" will cause a TSP trap.

V8 Hotfix 3

The V8 TAPI, Hotfix 3. Definition

New Features

Ability to configure an un-encrypted user/password

Status Closed
Id 87155

See Rolling_out_First_Party_TSPs_to_multiple_PCs

Memory Debug Feature

Status Closed
Id 87156

Debug Version only

Proprietary Support for SOAP UserRc

Status Closed
Id 87158

Ability to send SOAP UserRc to arbitrary calls (abusing lineBlindTransfer with magic called name "USERRC" and facility in called subbaddress)

Ability to disable 3PTY special treatment for all lines

Status Closed
Id 87161

The TSP will detect 3PTY situation on IP phones and announce them to the TAPI application appropriately. Some TAPI applications however get confused with 3PTY calls and cannot handle them correctly. If this feature is enabled, 3PTY calls will be shown as normal unrelated calls to the TAPI application.

Bug Fixes

Changed generation of Call-IDs when transferring calls

Status Closed
Id 87162

Changed calling sequence of UserTransfer arguments to ensure a consistent und useful setting of the CALLIDs of the calls remaining after a transfer.

performance improvements for slow networks

Status Closed
Id 87163

handles line initializations and destructions asynchronously, avoiding sluggish response times when PBXs come and go

allow more parallel threads to work with a higher number of PBXs

Status Closed
Id 87164

when maximum number of threads is exceeded, response times will be slow. See System Requirements

Do not retrieve user configuration for objects named '*'

Status Closed
Id 87165

Possible trap when calling Admin() on objects named '*'.

Trap on long PBX Admin() Result

Status Closed
Id 87166

long pbx Admin() result may trap TSP. This happens when there is a monitored line where the name starts with asterisk ('*') when using PBX firmware prior to V9 hotfix 17.

re-initialize pbx connector when connect fails (solves some COM initialization problems

Status Closed
Id 87167

-

V8 Hotfix 4

The V8 TAPI, Hotfix 4. Definition

New Features

Write info messages and warnings to windows event log

Status Closed
Id 87549

Trace messages of type INFO and WARNING are sent to Windows Application Event Log.

Option to show full calling number from root

Status Closed
Id 88544

Option to signal full calling number from root-node for incoming calls ("Show full E164 Numbers") in calling name, separated by "@" (e.g. name@497031730090). Requires V9 hotfix 19 or later on PBX.

Bug Fixes

Failback from Slave-Standby may fail

Status Closed
Id 88545

fix for #87163 which made fail-back from slave-standby to slave impossible

possible deadlock when re-connecting or disconnecting failed PBXs

Status Closed
Id 88546

results in missing status updates from affected PBXs

3PTY detection broken for some type of phones (e.g. SoftwarePhone)

Status Closed
Id 89654

results in being unable to drop the conference

V8 Hotfix 5

The V8 TAPI, Hotfix 5. Definition

New Features

Bug Fixes

Unability to write Windows Event Log

Status Closed
Id 89679

Installer failed to setup registry keys for windows event log event source registration. This also prevented the Debug version to start up.

V8 Hotfix 6

The V8 TAPI, Hotfix 6. Definition

New Features

Installer Package signed now

Status Closed
Id 89860

The .msi packages are signed now.

Ability to send arbitrary remote control facilities in lineMakeCall

Status Closed
Id 89903

Allows the invocation of 3rd party call control functions in call setup as per Reference:Remote Control Facility, e.g. call intrusion.

Allow HTTPS on non-standard Port

Status Closed
Id 90581

TSP can now connect securely although HTTPS is not on standard port 443.

Ability to disable special disconnect Handling for monitored Lines

Status Closed
Id 90604

See Reference8:TAPI_Service_Provider#Miscellaneous_Flags

Bug Fixes

Call Forwarding State was empty on TSP Startup

Status Closed
Id 90601

showed correct status only after a first change of the corresponding user object

ClearFwdOnSet Default now 1

Status Closed
Id 90602

See Section ClearFwdOnSet in Reference8:TAPI_Service_Provider#Tweaks. Although this is a change that alters the behaviour in a non-upward compatible way, it does seem more as a bug that it used to be like it did before. So the risk has been taken.

V8 Hotfix 7

The V8 TAPI, Hotfix 7. Definition

New Features

Bug Fixes

TAPI continuously connects and disconnects slaves

Status Closed
Id 91147

TAPI may connect and disconnect slaves endlessly under certain conditions. Only happens when slaves are monitored. This issue was introduced in hotfix 6.

Call Forward Status not shown correctly if no Registration on PBX Object

Status Closed
Id 91156

-

TSP occasionally blocks for up to a minute

Status Closed
Id 91317

In rare cases, when a TSP looses connection to a PBX, it may block for up to a minute before continueing.

false OUTOFSERVICE/DISCONNECTED line state

Status Closed
Id 91318

race condition when reconnecting master and standby may result in false disconnected/outofservice line state, which recovers on next line activity only

catch exception when TSP Control is not allowed to write TSP config due to Windows UAC

Status Closed
Id 91324

Now displays a message and advises to relax Windows' UAC settings.

Allow Blind Transfer and Park on Calls in state "Conferenced"

Status Closed
Id 91431

Up til now, Conferenced calls did not have any call features enabled, except drop. Now we allow blind transfer and park too.

see HiddenRecordingNumber in http://wiki.innovaphone.com/index.php?title=Reference8:TAPI_Service_Provider#Tweaks

Ability to configure Log File Disposition in tsptray.exe

Status Closed
Id 95286

option to "remove all", "keep last n" or "keep all" on telephony service shutdown

Enable hold without local Music-on-hold through Registry Tweak "SilentHold"

Status Closed
Id 95287

See "SilentHold" in http://wiki.innovaphone.com/index.php?title=Reference8:TAPI_Service_Provider#Tweaks

Bug Fixes

Problems in Provider Termination

Status Closed
Id 95288

Sometimes, provider termination failed with a trap or deadlock. This may have resulted in an inability to shut down and subsequently re-start the telephony service.

Installer installed default of 0xff for ProcessorMask

Status Closed
Id 95289

See "ProcessorMask" in http://wiki.innovaphone.com/index.php?title=Reference8:TAPI_Service_Provider#Tweaks.

By default, the TSP was installed with a ProcessorMask of 0xFF. On systems with more than 8 cores, the TSP then would be locked on to the first 8 cores.

TSP8 failed to release some Thread Handles

Status Closed
Id 95290

In certain situationes, the TSP failed to release some operating system handles. This results in accumulating resources.

Do not turn on DEBUG and DVL Trace Levels with "set recommended"

Status Closed
Id 95291

creates too heavy trace load in larger installations

Useless Disconnect of not-yet-connected PBX

Status Closed
Id 95292

newly learned PBXs suffered from a connect/disconnect/connect cycle during startup, resulting in slow startup with many or large slaves

Call Features did not correctly reflect No3PTY=1 configurations

Status Closed
Id 95294

See "No3PTY" in http://wiki.innovaphone.com/index.php?title=Reference8:TAPI_Service_Provider#Tweaks

V8 Hotfix 9

The V8 TAPI, Hotfix 9, Build 8141.

Available in V8 applications hotfix15 Build 8000040. Definition

New Features

Bug Fixes

line state may become inaccurate if PBX object changes registration PBX

Status Closed
Id 96433

This happens when the PBX attribute is changed in the PBX configuration. It may result in the lines wrong in-service state or inability to perform TAPI requests on it.

V8 Hotfix 10

The V8 TAPI, Hotfix 10, Build 8150.

Available in V8 applications hotfix16 Build 8000042. Definition

New Features

Bug Fixes

impossible value for ProcessorMask in Registry floods traces

Status Closed
Id 97607

impossible values for processor affinity mask in registry resulted in endless setting the mask (flooding the log with info messages)

TSP sometimes falsely sets a line to out-of-service

Status Closed
Id 99200

rare race conditions may result in lines that still show call activity but can not be controled (out of service)

longer SOAP request timeout

Status Closed
Id 99283

in very slow networks, the default SOAP request timeout of 5s could falsely trigger a pbx-has-trapped recovery cycle in the TSP. The timeout is 15s now.

race condition when Master PBX with Standby restarts

Status Closed
Id 99306

When a master PBX with standby restarts, fail-over from master to standby and back can create a race condition where a line is erroneously considered out-of-service. This recovered upon next line activity (e.g. a call).

Installer failed on 32bit Windows XP (claiming a system protected file could not be updated)

Status Closed
Id 104572

The installer then showed a pop-up saying "The windows installer cannot update the system file C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\COMDLG32.dll because the file is protected by Windows."

HTTPS SOAP connections did not work on Windows8 / Server 2012

Status Closed
Id 104969

Windows8 / Server2012 enforce TLS1.2 for secure channels by default. However, the PBX does support up to TLS1.1 only. TLS1.0 / TLS1.1 is now negotiated explicitly on all systems.
