The EZTapiAPI SDK is a Software Library written in the C/C++ programming language that was created to offer software developers an easy to use software interface for controlling Voice Modems in computers running Microsoft Windows Operating Systems. The EZTapiAPI SDK Library exports a set of C function calls, which make up the library’s Application Programming Interface (API). These easy to use function calls replace the more complex operations that would be needed for building Interactive Voice Response Systems (IVR) with the Microsoft TAPI API directly.
The EZTapiAPI SDK offers both a synchronous and asynchronous interface for many of the exported APIs. This offers the developer the needed flexibility they may require to quickly add a telephony interface to new or existing applications.
The EZTapiAPI SDK also gives programmers a tool to develop telephony-based applications in a non-windows environment. All function calls can be made from traditional console based applications written in C/C++ when compiled with TAPI version 2.0 or greater. Under Windows 95, console applications are not supported.
Beginning with release version 2.0 of the EZTapiAPI SDK, all exported functions have been defined to use the __stdcall convention, allowing them to be called from Visual Basic applications. See the sample Visual Basic application for more information.
