Patrick - did you get a disclaimer to Digium for this?  Since it's such a simple patch, I'll assume that there's some other holdup with adding it... Looks very useful, I'd like to see it added.

I already had one when I sent in the incominglimit patch.  Is one needed for every patch submitted?

By: John Todd (jtodd) 2003-09-04 11:16:47

No, you should be fine.  Sorry if I confused you.  Upon more examination, I see this isn't such a simple patch, which may be the reason it's taking a while to implement.  But who knows?  :-)

No, since this is a patch for SIP.  Note that it only says "similiar to H.323".

I submitted right before the changes for debugging threads, so it won't patch now.  
I can work on the patch for the latest chan_sip.c.   I still have to finish the modification to sip.conf.sample also.

Please do.  This is a very useful patch, and I'd like to see it added to the main CVS tree.

There, that should patch chan_sip.c
A brief synopsis of what was changed:
 Added the keyword "outgoinglimit" to sip.conf for each UA.
 Changed the function find_user() to use a switch/case structure instead of if/then
 Added #defines for int event instead of using 0,1,2,3
    #define DEC_IN_USE   0
    #define INC_IN_USE   1
    #define DEC_OUT_USE  2
    #define INC_OUT_USE  3

The viewpoint for understanding what incoming/outgoing defines is based from Asterisk:
  Incoming from SIP UA to Asterisk.
  Outgoing to SIP UA from Asterisk.

I had a couple of people ask which direction incoming was so I thought I might mention that here if anyone is interested.

Had to modify patch because another patch was added before this patch was applied.

Merged in CVS

Does not seem to work as desired - see http://bugs.digium.com/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=0000329

It would be useful to have a "totallimit=" option which would limit tht total number of incoming + outgoing calls.
