Get max length for title and prompt for an ip phone ?

[mahmoud.saleh]

Hi, i am developing a JTapi application that will work on all models of ip phones, and i display title and prompt dynamically, and i was wondering how to get max length for title and prompt for an ip phone model.

[Joseph Martini]

Each phone model has a different length for the most part.  Here's a bug that mentions that the XML schema will tell you how many characters are supported on each phone model,

@Joe Martini the bug says that 31 characters is the max length, but i don't think that will work for all model, i want to find max length for each model, please advise.

Hi

The full XML schema is contained in this doc in Appendix B :

(http://developer.cisco.com/documents/23866/32264/8.5%281%29%20Cisco+Unified+IP+Phone+Services+Application+Development+Notes?redirect=http%3A%2F%2Fdeveloper.cisco.com%2Fweb%2Fipps%2Fdocumentation%3Fp_p_id%3Ddoc_library_summary_portlet_WAR_doclibrarysu...)

It says 32 for prompt/title and 4000 for text content.

I think what you'll probably find is that how much a phone can physically display depends on the characters you use as some take up more physicaly space than others...

@Aaron, i can't find the part that says max length for title/prompt is 32 characters.

and does that length apply to all models of cisco phones ?

Hi

XML guid ei

Page B8 :

That 'CiscoIPPhoneDisplayableType' seems to be defined later on like so:

I read that as 32 for prompt and title, and 4000 for the text.

It should be consistent between models, but testing these things is important.

Hi,

There are some project develop that could help you not to start from scratch:

Push2Phone:https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/304059

Cisco IP Phone Push Notifications: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RbqPhNJs2ZY

I just hoping to have some free time to test both APP

@leosalcie this post is not helpful at all.

[mahmoud.saleh]

Can anyone please give me a documentation link for max length for title/prompt for each ip phone model.

[mahmoud.saleh]

@Aaron, i tested that on the commonly used models 7945,7906, and you are correct.

max length for title and prompt is 32, and max length for text is 4000.

@Aaron, is the 32 max length differs depending on the language or special characters ?
