asterisk users - Jun 2014 - Asterisk 12 AMI Hold Event

I'm trying to capture when a call is placed on and removed from being on
hold through the AMI in Asterisk 12.3.  In previous versions, the Hold event
contained a 'Status' field which indicated if the call was going
'On' or 'Off' hold.  However, in 12 not only am I not seeing the
Status field, but I am not seeing any AMI Hold event that corresponds to
removing the call from Hold.

Is this the intended behavior, or am I missing something in how the call's
hold status should be tracked via the AMI?


Thanks!

This was changed in v12.  There is a Hold and an Unhold event.
Events no longer have a subevent type field.  Instead there are
separate events.  e.g., DialBegin/DialEnd, Hold/Unhold,
MusicOnHoldStart/MusicOnHoldStop, etc.
