I want to implement hints such as this:

As I understand it, only global varibles may be used in hints
currently.

Does anyone know how much effort this would require for me to
implement?
I'm not familiar with that part of the asterisk code, so I don't
know if
I'm biting off more than I can chew. What I mean is, would this change
fit in reasonably well with the existing architecture?
In other words I want to avoid having any hints hard-coded in the
dialplan, and would instead like variables and/or calls.

I am using agi scripts currently to look up the relationship between the
extension and the device from a sqlite db. So for example I can get
Zap/17 from the entry for 200 in the db. I now want to extend this
functionality to hints.

It's far from complete, and I haven't had to work on it recently.  However,
the basic blueprint is there and it works.  It just doesn't work yet across
reloads.


Tilghman, I'm afraid I can't understand this patch. It dynamically creates a new extension if the exten line begins with '_' Without this patch however, my dialplan already accepts hints of the form:

        exten => _2XX,hint,Zap/1

Why would one want this patch ? Sorry if I'm being dumb :p

Many thanks,
Thomas
