Nomenclature

This document is the culmination of publicly reviewed design cycles. One consequence of this is that the Java Telephony API has been refered to variously throughout earlier documents. Please understand that Javatel, JTT and the Java Telephony Toolkit are names that have been used synonymously for Java Telephony API or JTAPI.

What is JTAPI?

The Java Telephony API specifies the standard telephony application programming interface for computer-telephone applications under Java. It is the definition for a reuseable set of call control objects that bring cross-platform and cross-implementation portability to telephony applications. It is a simple, extensible, object-oriented model that addresses a broad range of computer-telephony tasks.

The Java Telephony API represents the combined efforts of design teams from Sun, Lucent, Nortel, Novell, Intel, and IBM, all operating under the direction of JavaSoft. As of the 1.1 release, JTAPI is moving to a working group under ECTF. More information about this transition will appear on future versions of this page.
