asterisk users - Mar 2010 - DID/CID doesn't match "." (dot) in CID field

Hi all,
using Skype for Asterisk I have the following problem.
In my dialplan I need to have a CID matching (example.skype) over a DID 
(test.skype) :

[example]
exten => test.skype/example.skype,1, NoOp(nothing)
exten => test.skype/example.skype,n, Hangup()

Where test.skype and example.skype are Skype business account.
In this case, when I get a :

CLI> show dialplan example

I get:

[ Context 'example' created by 'pbx_config' ]
   '*test.example*' (CID match '*danexample*') =>  1. 
NoOp(nothing)                              [pbx_config]
                     2. Hangup()                                       
                                                     [pbx_config]


As you can see, the "." (dot) is disappeared and, of course, CID 
matching doesn't work as I aspected.
I've try to escape "." with something like that "\.",
but nothing.
It seems that asterisk doesn't consider "." in DID/CID 
evaluations.
This is an important point, because many Skype account uses "dot"
notation.

It seems to work, instead, with "_" or "-".

Any clues?

Regards,

Daniel

Daniel--

Haven't tried this myself, but have you tried '[.]' instead of just
'.' in
the string (as a pattern search)?

So,

[example]
exten => _test[.]skype/e[x]ample[.]skype,1, NoOp(nothing)
exten => _test[.]skype/e[x]ample[.]skype,n, Hangup()

If you don't really mean the cid matching (denoted with /), you have to also
'escape' the '/'...

and watch out for N,X,Z in the pattern, they mean something, and will have
to be 'escaped'
like the '.' if you want them to match literally. I can't remember
how case
is handled at the
moment, so... just for safety, you can 'escape' the little 'x'
also...

I've been having the same problem.  I tried various escapes and couldn't
get it to work and I think there was also a length-related component to this.
I ended up doing something like:

  exten => _test.,1,Goto(some_context,${FILTER([a-z][0-z],${EXTEN})},1)

I think there's some sort of bug or misfeature here, but I gave up trying to
see exactly what it was.
