Hi. I think I've discovered a bug in either the implementation of the documentation of the AEL switch command.
https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/AEL+Conditionals gives an example of using switch, and states at the bottom: "Neither the switch nor case values are wrapped in $[ ]; they can be constants, or ${var} type references only." However, I've run into a problem, which can be demonstrated by the simple context: context SwitchTest { s => { Set(FortyTwo=42); Set(SixByNine=54); switch(${SixByNine}) { case 123: NoOp(123); break; case ${FortyTwo}: NoOp(${FortyTwo}); break; } } } This gets converted by AEL into: [ Context 'SwitchTest' created by 'pbx_ael' ] 's' => 1. MSet(~~EXTEN~~=${EXTEN}) 2. Set(FortyTwo=42) 3. Set(SixByNine=54) 4. Goto(sw_5410_${SixByNine},10) 5. NoOp(Finish switch_SwitchTest_5410) 'sw_5410_' => 10. Goto(sw_5410_.,10) 11. Goto(s,5) 'sw_5410_123' => 10. NoOp(123) 11. Goto(s,5) '_sw_5410_.' => 10. Goto(s,5) So, there was no implementation of the "case ${FortyTwo}" match. Am I misundertanding "they can be constants, or ${var} type references only."? Antony. -- Normal people think "If it ain't broke, don't fix it".
