[Asterisk-Users] fatal embrace control in menus ?

Hi, 

	So how does one keep this from happening.

(note, the following is fake code)

exten => s,1,Play(Greeting)
exten => s,2,Background(Menu Sound)
exten => s,3,goto(s,2)

How does one control the number of times s,3 gets executed??

The issue is this.

1. Call comes in via PSTN, * answers the call, starts to play
   things, caller hangs up.  Menu loops for quite some time :)

2. Call comes in via PSTN, * answers the call, start to play things
   caller does nothing on the first pass thru the menu.

   I want the menu to repeat X times and then disconnect if no
   action from the claller.


samples of extensions.conf would be really appreciated

I just repeat line 2, e.g.

exten => s,1,Play(Greeting)
exten => s,2,Background(Menu Sound)
exten => s,3,Background(Menu Sound)

Morning,

this is just too simple ;-)
Try this if you want to loop 3 times:

exten => s,1,Answer()
exten => s,2,SetVar(LOOPS=0)
exten => s,3,Background(MenuSound)
exten => s,4,SetVar(LOOPS=$[${LOOPS} + 1])
exten => s,5,GotoIf($[${LOOPS} < 3]?3:6)
exten => s,6,Hangup()

regards

Ahh, much thanks.  Learning more about the programming
bit of this system everyday.

now if we could only get away from these blasted line numbers,
or at least have line numbers like

10
20
30

which would make it easier to insert something quickly

Well one way would be to set an AbsoluteTimeout on the call and then when
they actually select options, then set the absolutetimeout to 0 (i.e. no
timeout)

exten => s,1,AbsoluteTimeout(60) ; Make sure they do something in 60 secs
exten => s,2,Background(options) ; Give them options
exten => s,3,Goto(2)             ; Repeat
exten => 1,1,AbsoluteTimeout(0)  ; Lose the timeout
exten => 1,2,Dial(Zap/1)         ; Ring a Phone

Another way would be to explicitly list:

exten => s,1,Background(options)
exten => s,2,Background(options)
exten => s,3,Background(options)

exten => t,1,Playback(goodbye)
exten => t,2,Hangup
