Subject: [asterisk-users] How to write custom functions in AEL2
,
Hi,
I'm using asterisk 1.6.1 and AEL2.
I'm trying to find the best way to write my own custom functions
?
At the moment, I'm using this pattern (extensions.ael) :
context foo {
123 => {
&myfunc(123456);
NoOp(${GOSUB_RETVAL});
};
macro myfunc (arg) {
Return (${arg});
}
1. First, I keep getting warnings like
Warning: file /etc/asterisk/extensions.ael, line 446-446:
application call to Return affects flow of control, and needs to be
re-written using AEL if, while, goto, etc. keywords instead!
and I would like to get rid of them.
Unfortunately, AEL does not support using return with a value at the
moment. There is a patch on Reviewboard that does this, as well as
*simple* direct assignment from an AEL macro return:
http://reviewboard.digium.com/r/114/
2. Secondly, I would like not to use GOSUB_RETVAL and call a
custom function just like I'm calling other functions with statements
like :
123 => {
NoOp(TOLOWER(fOo BaR));
NoOp(myfunc(123456));
};
What would you advise me to do ?
That requires rather a lot more work than the above patch, but if you
use the direct assignment at least you needn't worry about GOSUB_RETVAL.
Regards,
- Brad
