asterisk users - Sep 2005 - Macro exists if an application returned -1

Hi all,

I use asterisk cvs-head from last week and was wondering why my macros are 
not working like I expected.

A macro will be aborted if one application returns error (-1), but some 
applications (like ChanIsAvail() in my case) do return -1.

So when I want to use ChanIsAvail() in a macro, it does not work if the 
channel is not available, because the macro is not executed on n+101.
The macro just aborts in that case.

Is there any solution for using ChanIsAvail() in a macro?

Thanks,
Armin

Yes.  Fix app_chanisavail.c such that it says "if (ast_goto_if_exists 
(..." instead of "if (!ast_goto_if_exists(...".  Somone bungled
the
conversion to use "ast_goto_if_exists" -- this may or may not be  
incorrect in other places as well.

Ah yes, thanks !

Is this already known to developers or why is not fixed in CVS yet?
