Listening to ports

[Alex]

Hi,

I have written a caller ID software working true HTTP.

But there is a disadvantage: it checks every second true http the last
caller.

Changing it to for example check every 10 second is no option because its
cannot popup the right form with the caller data on time.

In this way it generates al lot of traffic, a solution would be too listen
to a port.

I us a Sipura 2002, so can anybody help me with a start, or a function to
listen to a port or detect the necessary data?

As you have found out, the polling system you are currently using is
normally a bad idea. You will need to contact Sipura to see if there is
a way of the SPA2002 notifying your application via your listening port.
If there isn't, then you have no choice other than to poll. You can
listen all you want but nothing will talk to you.
