Based on the ambiguity of the documentation with respect to extension
sorting order [0], I ended up going with the "pre-incoming" context
idea. It worked fine.
[pre-incoming]
exten =>
_X.,1,Set(CALLERID(name)=${IF($["${DB(cidname/${CALLERID(num)})}" = ""]
?${CALLERID(name)}:${DB(cidname/${CALLERID(num)})})})
exten => _X.,n,Goto(incoming,${EXTEN},1)
By the way, I'm using the AstDB for CallerID overrides, which seems like
it would be more reliable than using an external database. Is there
some advantage (e.g. scalability) to using MySQL?
Thanks.
