Hi,
the idea is to do parallel forking (not wait for reply or timeout), but
wait (for each branch) a specific amount of seconds, before sending out
the INVITE request to the contact.
This could be useful, if a user
- has a mailbox <somewhere>, which answers the call without waiting
(like many cell phone providers' mailboxes do, if a call gets forwarded
to them)
- would like to predefine multiple destinations, for example tel.
exchange and users phone, but the users phone should only ring
_additionally_ , if the call was not answered for <x> seconds by the
tel. exchange.
- ...
there are many use cases, but a function would be needed, which delays
further script processing for specific branches only or (that could be
the better solution) the definition of a special branch-individual avp
which holds the seconds to wait and which is evaluated by tm.

Hi,
What is the goal of a "delayed branch"? What you can do (and could do
for many versions now) is the serial forking together with a defined
timeout of some seconds for each branch... (e.g. first try location 1
for a few seconds, then try location 2 for few seconds, ...).

So if 4 user have delayed calling, 4 processes are sleeping,
thats not
good.
it is not good, but such "sleeps" can happen also when an ua
is not
responding immediately, when you do an http query, etc.
unfortunately a function
execute_next_function_asynchronously() does not
exit.
