asterisk users - May 2006 - Asterisk::AGI and DIALEDTIME

Hi List,

In one of my AGIs (using DeadAGI) I grab the answered time using:

        my $res = $agi->exec ("DIAL $dialstring");
        my $answeredtime = $agi->get_variable ("ANSWEREDTIME");

However this information differs from what's written in the Master.csv 
file (which happens to be the correct value!)

Any ideas why?

I'm using asterisk 1.2.7.1 and the lastest asterisk-perl distrib.

Cheers,
Jean-Michel.

On my system, answeredtime returns the time elapsed since the call was 
answered by the destination.
The time elapsed stored in Master.csv is from the time the current 
incoming call (channel) was answered.

I'm not using 1.2.7.x but I doubt this would change from earlier versions.


P.S. Shouldn't the subject be ANSWEREDTIME? :)
