asterisk users - Mar 2008 - override/redefine asterisk DB function

Hi.

Is it possible to override the standard DB function in
Asterisk?

My dialplan contains a lot of calls to "Set(DB(...))"
and "${DB(...)} which of course use astdb to
store/read data. I would like to stop using astdb and
switch to Clustered MySQL (I don't suppose "clustered
astdb" exists?).
So instead of rewriting extensions.conf and replacing
the DB calls with MYSQL calls, would it be possible to
just "user-define" the DB function so that I can leave
the extensions file intact but make the appropriate
MYSQL function calls?

Thanks.

Is it permitted to modify the astdb outside Asterisk, while Asterisk
is running? It is a SQLite file, right?

Nope. Berkeley DB. Of an old vintage (1.86? the last one before the
license change to the sleepycat license).
