esl.jar (freeswitch core)​

  • License: Same as FreeSWITCH
  • Available: esl.jar can be built as part of FreeSWITCH code base
  • Features:
    • Automatically generated by SWIG from core C ESL interfaces (so by definition, always up to date with core ESL).
    • Requires the native esl_lib dependencies to available at runtime.
    • An example is provided at bottom of this page Event Socket Library.

org.freeswitch.esl.client (freeswitch-contrib)​

  • License: Apache v2
  • Available: In freeswitch-contrib git repository, see Java ESL Client for details and usage.
  • Features:
    • Inbound and outbound
    • Handles event bodies
    • Built using maven, and OSGi ready
    • Runtime dependencies only on the excellent Netty (Apache License) and SLF4j (MIT License) libraries
