Convenience function to create a new AccountChannelRequest object which will yield a Call channel, initially carrying audio only.
After creating the request, you will usually also need to set the "target" of the channel by calling one of the following functions:
- set_target_contact - set_target_id
To call a contact, either use set_target_contact
or one of the generic methods that takes a handle type argument. To check whether this is possible, use
supports_audio_call with handle_type
set to
CONTACT.
In some protocols, it is possible to create a Call channel without setting a target at all, which will result in a new, empty conference
call. To test whether this is possible, use
supports_audio_call with handle_type
set to NONE.
