asterisk users - Oct 2008 - How to add contexts in asterisk realtime?

Hi everybody,

How can we add new contexts in asterisk realtime module? All I could figure
out after googling is that a new context HAS to be declared in
extensions.conf with 'switch => Realtime/@<databasetable>'
under the context
name declaration. This works fine as long as we are adding extensions only
to this one context, but doesn't give the freedom to add new contexts for
different users, groups or departments.

Can this be accomplised at all in asterisk?

I haven't got any reply on this question. I did some more googling but still
couldn't find what I am looking for. Does anybody know if this is possible
at all?

I just responded to someone else with the same question:
See http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=6019
It looks like this will be available in Asterisk 1.6.1.  You can try
out the beta if you would like:
http://downloads.digium.com/pub/asterisk/asterisk-1.6.1-beta1.tar.gz

hi 
for any context ,you must to open /etc/asterisk/extensions.conf and insert this
line : exten =>Realtime/yourcontext at DBtable
and (reload) or (restart now) your asterisk

You don't have to restart asterisk, just a 'dialplan reload' will
suffice.  So really there is no impact to a running system.
