Hi all,
I need to build an application that will be an SIP server program that will run on Linux and Windows.
The sip server need only some features such as be able to :
<![if !supportLists]>- <![endif]>Register sip endpoints
<![if !supportLists]>- <![endif]>Answer a call and play a local file
<![if !supportLists]>- <![endif]>Make a dial from one channel to another.

I know asterisk can be stripped to exactly fit my needs. I would like to know if there is a way to build it on windows after it has been stripped.
Or do I have other alternatives out there ?

It all depends on what you are trying to do. In terms of reliability and maintainability I would
not try to use a windows desktop machine. There are a couple of alternatives. Could you describe
the desired functionality?

Installing Asterisk natively on Windows is a bit like training a gerbil to
bark, in terms of effort and reward. The easiest way to get Asterisk to run on
a machine that normally would run Windows, is from a live USB distribution.

If you can use windows 8.1 Pro 64bit. You can use hyper-v and run a virtual linux machine (Or the Free Hyper-V Server 2012 R2), VM Ware also works well. Load asterisk on that and you are set. This is how we run it at a few very small customers as well as my development machines and it works great. Best linux builds for Hyper-V we currently have found to be Ubuntu and Suse.

As both a windows and linux guy I have to concur that loading Asterisk on windows directly is like putting a V8 on a moped. You may get there, but it won't be pretty; It's a lot of work, and it would be hell to maintain. (We do not trust it for production applications)

In all seriousness I have a Asterisk build running on windows and it is stable but it is a lot of work to get it there and since it is not maintained by the community it is a full task to keep it up to date. We use it for in process testing of code that we develop with MS visual studio. If not for that I would not bother with Asterisk on Windows there would be no value in it. Especially since the current version of Asterisk now works so well in virtual environments.

Good luck
Bryant

Servers that can run Asterisk are so cheap nowadays, unless you are talking about huge volumes of traffic.

I’d recommend getting a server and putting on Centos which is tried and tested.

You’ll waste less time that way and avoid any unforeseen problems.

Or look for a cloud server to do the job for you.

This is about an call center application we are building and that need
an embedded PBX.
We would then like to have that platform run on Windows and Linux.
Are there ways to easy ship linux application embedded in virtual
machine so they can run on windows ?

If you can target windows 8.0 pro or 8.1 pro you can ship a Hyper-V image. (This same image would work with Hyper-V on, Hyper-V Server 2012/2012r2 and Windows Server 2012/2012r2.

You would need to write some kind of configuration editor or documentation to customize the image to the users network environment.

You could automate the entire process if you were so inclined.
You can fully automate the Hyper-V side of things using PowerShell or Dot.Net
The Linux side of things can be automated in a number of ways. We personally wrote a windows program that collects information from the user and posts it to our databases. The default image then has a script that pulls the info down (images uses DHCP to start) and re-writes the asterisk configs.

This process is not a small task but if you have the time and budge it can work very well.

Thanks

Use freeswitch instead, it does run on Windows.

Telephony, especially VoIP telephony, is hard. A PBX will be complicated and difficult to understand and manage regardless of which operating system the PBX runs on.
