Thank you for sharing your experience.

Anyone else ? Maybe one of the developers can confirm this risk of working with macros ?

I'm now also moving towards GoSub where possible. I was experiencing asterisk restarts every 40minutes. Exactly 40 minutes ! I've created a backtrace of the core dump file but have not had any reaction (and I myself don't understand the content of the backtrace)

Yes I've personally experienced issue with nested macros and eventually asterisk failing to process call any further. So I moved onto using GoSUBs and everything worked perfectly. Since then I'm using GoSUBs happily.

    *Subject*: [asterisk-users] Macro vs sub

    Hello list,

    can I conclude that it is better to use sub's in stead of macro's ?

    I read the following in an Asterisk-book :

    GoSub() works in a different manner from Macro(), though, in that
    it doesn’t have the stack space requirements, so
    it nests effectively. Essentially, GoSub() acts like Goto() with
    a memory of where it came from.

    Is it then not better to use a method that does not stack ?!


    Kind regards,

    Jonas.
