asterisk users - Jan 2008 - SET with pipe symbol

Hi,

 

I want to place a pipe symbol in a variable by using the command Set

I tried the following code:

            Set(M_CHANNELVAR=${UNIQUEID}|${CALLERID(number))

 

When I call to my applicatie I see the following output in my CLI :

        Ignoring entry '612345678' with no = (and not last
'options'
entry)

(in my test call ${CALLERID(number) = 061234578)

 

I tried to escape the pipe symbol by using \ (backslash)

With the same result

Also I tried to place the variable between single or double quotes, but
with the same result.

 

Does anybody now how place a pipe symbol in variable.

 

Kind Regards,

You can't, in 1.4.  This is by design.  We have removed this restriction in
1.6.  As a workaround, in 1.4, use the NoOp instruction with the SET dialplan
function, i.e.
NoOp(${SET(M_CHANNELVAR=${UNIQUEID}|${CALLERID(number))})
