asterisk users - Apr 2005 - UK CallerID patch with 1.0.7 / 1-0 CVS

Hullo :)

I've been trying to use a stable 1.0.7 codebase against the patches at 
http://www.lusyn.com/asterisk/patches.html - but am having no joy.  Even if I 
copy-paste the instructions on that site verbatim, everything compiles 
perfectly, but simply no incoming number is received.

If I then go back to a CVS checkout (even including make clean, make 
install...) that I did at the end of February, everything works as it did 
before. (hurrah!)

Does anyone know what might have changed before I start wading through the CVS 
logs for chan_zap.c ?

Cheers,
Gavin.

Bah, I got bitten by my own hacks. Things are now working much better than 
before :)

I'd forgotten that I'd commented out the line:

if (p->use_callerid && p->cid_start == CID_START_USEHIST) 

in my previous CVS version, and this made CID work.

The source of the confusion was I'd put the three 'usecallerid'
commands in
zapata.conf AFTER a 'channel=1' statement, so they were getting lost...
I've
moved them up the config file and now not only does incoming CID work, but 
the phone is answered immediately rather than waiting for the Bellcore CID to 
not find any data :)

Another happy ending :)

Cheers,
Gavin.
