call method for python

[IPB-DevOps]

Is it posible to implement call functionality for python api?
This would be a big improvement for self developped sms gateways.

Kind regards,
Thomas

It is already implemented:

python-gammu/gammu/src/gammu.c

Lines 3024 to 3072 in 6067cf1

You are right, I mean call function for a running smsd.
Far as I know, you can only dial a call if the phone / sim has not an allready running daemon with it.
In theory you have to stop daemon, make the call and start daemon again right?

Thank you for your fast response

Yes, that's correct.
