Hello-- It's been a while since I wrote any updates about AEL/AEL2 to the users list, and I thought it might be worthwhile to update everyone on what is going on in respects to AEL. What the heck is AEL? The Asterisk Extension Language. A higher level language for extensions.conf, which will appear in the config file, extensions.ael, in the /etc/asterisk/ (or equiv) directory. It provides

Hello-- I've just written and submitted a new module for asterisk, to the asterisk bug database. See http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=6021 There is a file there you can download, AEL2v0.3.patch.bz2 and I created a wiki page: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+AEL2 Why did I do it? Because I was very impressed with AEL, but the current AEL compiler isn't real good at

Friends, Beginning next week, I will travel around Europe to teach Asterisk - the one day Meet Asterisk training. MeetAsterisk is organized by Edvina in cooperation with Digium and Voop. In many places, local Asterisk equipment resellers participate and show their equipment. This is the tour plan: * Amsterdam April 26 * Copenhagen April 27 * Oslo April 28 * Paris May 3 * Brussels May 4 *

Friends, To update you on recent changes in svn trunk, I can inform you that we now have ever smarter ways to handle media streams in Asterisk than we do in 1.2 for the IAX2 and SIP protocols. * IAX2: Splitting signalling and media apart Starting with the IAX2 protocol, we now have the ability to transfer media streams to go directly between IAX2 servers and keep the signalling path.

Hi, I've new to http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+AEL2 I'm using NoOp and Verbose functions inside extensions.ael. Strangely, NoOp is not printing anything in Asterisk console while Verbose is working. Am I missing something obvious ?

Friends in the Asterisk.org community, There is a lot of cool stuff going on in Asterisk development, things that will change Asterisk and make it work better in your organisation, make it easier to sell in your area or give you more consulting oppurtunities - in short, functionality that will make a lot of sense for you users. However, developers can't really get anywhere without a

Friends in the Asterisk community, One thing I avoided working with for a long time is the Asterisk voicemail code. One module in Asterisk I've constantly been naming as one of the worst parts is voicemail. One part of Asterisk that I've been kind of avoiding during my trainings is voicemail. And there's where I've spent a lot of time recently... Life is strange. Instead

Call to Action! For those who have the courage/ability, go grab an SVN copy of the asterisk release, the HEAD version, and my latest patch, from: http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=6021 Right now, the latest version of the patch is 0.10. apply it to the SVN head version, and do a "make". Read the Wiki on AEL2: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+AEL2 Look at the examples

** Want to see who you're talking to? Video telephony is growing. A couple of developers has formed the Asterisk Video Task Force in order to improve the support for video telephony in Asterisk for the 1.6 release this fall. There is already support for video in the SIP and the IAX2 channel, but we need to add more in order to improve the support, among other things add video to H.323

>>> Nobody has any information or opinions on any of this? Personally, I don't think MACROS are going anywhere any time soon, so I have not bothered looking into a substitution. As for ael; I've never used it. Doug

I had this same problem with WINXP WinMESS, (what a name mess) I changed the Distro from Redhat 8.0 to Mandrake 9.1 and bam! It all works!! Does anyone know of a problem with this and RH 8.0???? Are you running Redhat?? I now have Messenger working fine as well as X-ten, Sipps, and some others. I have standardized on Mandrake 9.1 and asterisk seams to have NO problems. REDHat 8.0 proved as

Hi, all. I'm making my first foray into AEL. I'm starting with a simple macro, but I've already encountered an odd behaviour. I'm wondering if someone can shed some insight: Asterisk 1.2.9.1 macro newPlaceCallPSTN { s => { TIMEOUT(absolute)=7200; NoOp(Analog Out List: ${ANALOGOUT}); ChanIsAvail(${ANALOGOUT}); NoOp(Available Out List:

Hi, I'm using asterisk 1.6.1 and AEL2. I'm trying to find the best way to write my own custom functions ? At the moment, I'm using this pattern (extensions.ael) : context foo { 123 => { &myfunc(123456); NoOp(${GOSUB_RETVAL}); }; macro myfunc (arg) { Return (${arg}); } 1. First, I keep getting warnings like Warning: file /etc/asterisk/extensions.ael, line

Hi! All the AEL examples have a semicolon after the closing curly bracket, e.g: context test { 1 => Hangup(); }; but without ; it works fine too, e.g: context test { 1 => Hangup(); } So - what is the reason for the ; after the closing curly bracket? thanks klaus

Today is Swedens national day - since a few years a holiday too. We don't have a tradition on how to celebrate. Sweden has not been to war for a very long time, so there's no real spirit for the country here - it's been aroundfor such a long time, so what? :-) Guess we have to learn from abroad, to get a celebration feeling like July 4th in the US or May 17th in Norway (from

Hi all, I've just upgraded to latest 1.6.0 SVN from a few days ago and my Gosubs have stopped working. This is from the verbose logs: -- Executing [03333407271 at incoming-aaisp:4] GotoIf("IAX2/aaisp-3802", "1?5:7") in new stack -- Goto (incoming-aaisp,03333407271,5) -- Executing [03333407271 at incoming-aaisp:5] Gosub("IAX2/aaisp-3802",

Does anyone know how to get CID working in AEL2 ? In extensions.conf you can do: exten => 111/666,1,PlayBack(demo-congrats) exten => 111/666,2,Hangup() exten => 111,1,PlayBack(demo-moreinfo) exten => 111,2,Hangup() and if callerid 666 dialed 111, they would get demo-congrats, everyone else gets demo-moreinfo. In AEL: 111 => { Playback(demo-moreinfo);
