[asterisk-users] AEL2: If-then-else not permitted in Switch-Case
I just want to confirm but it seems that if-then-else is not permitted
in case structure.
It was not really documented but it seems to be the case.
Can anyone confirm?
switch(${DIALSTATUS})
{
case NOANSWER:
{
// if-then-else not permitted
If (${ael-var} = 1)
{
Playback(beep);
return;
}
}
case BUSY:
{
return;
}
default:
{
Hangup();
};
}

Thanks guys. It was the If vs if that was causing the problem. This is probably due to my good coding practice of other languages in the past :-)> -----Original Message----- > From: asterisk-users-bounces at lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users- > bounces at lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Watkins, Bradley > Sent: Thursday, 5 March 2009 9:12 AM > To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion > Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] AEL2: If-then-else not permitted inSwitch-> Case > > > I just want to confirm but it seems that if-then-else is notpermitted> > in case structure. > > It was not really documented but it seems to be the case. > > > > Can anyone confirm? > > No, if-then-else works fine inside a case statement.
