similar to: AEL includes?

I am building a new Asterisk server here at the office, and I'm wondering if there are any downsides to creating my dialplan with AEL. It seems more intuitive (to me), but I'm not sure if there are any pitfalls I need to be aware of first. We use this for internal extensions, 8 pots lines, and our answering service which gets about 500 incoming calls a day down our T1. Also, one more

Hi all, i need to know whether we can use ael and extensions.conf togather. i mean can we switch between contexts,extensions and priorities which are in present in both? can 2 context be named same in extensions.conf and extensions.ael? -- Regards Rizwan Hisham Software Engineer -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi, according to discussion on asterisk IRC, where people said, that macros will be depracated, I tried to migrate from macros to contexts and Gosub but if I try to use gosub in extensions.ael, ael compiler complains, that I shouln't use Gosub app, but I can't find ael keyword, that will be Gosub equivalent, or can I ignore this ael warnings? thanks PJ LOG: lev:3 file:pval.c

I was playing with aelparse last night and I thought it would be nice if the output of the it's operation was a little more structured. I've written a app that allows me to edit ael/conf files from a windows environment and upload them to the asterisk box, commit a reload, restart, etc, etc. This is performed through a socket server running on the asterisk box. One of the things I

Hi. After successfully running ./configure I run make. When running make I get the following error..

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 ?

I'm trying to clarify my understand of gosub, macros and AEL. My understanding is that macros using the Macro() application, which is defined in extensions.conf by: [macro-foo] ... and called in extensions.conf with exten => _9NXXNXXXXXX.,n,Macro(fastbusy) is deprecated in favour of Gosub(). True so far? But then there are "macro"s defined in extensions.ael: macro foo() {

Hi all, I built my first asterisk using the traditional (?) .conf files and constructs. I recall reading books at the time about AEL but it seemed "new" and untested so I left it alone. Now, I'm interested to poll the audience here to see if I should look into using AEL instead (or in addition to) for future work. TIA

"show dialplan" keeps showing contexts created by AEL. I tried deleting /etc/asterisk/extensions.ael but kept getting these messages in the Asterisk log: Feb 14 21:39:53 WARNING[6074] pbx_ael.c: Unable to open '/etc/asterisk/extensions.ael': No such file or directory Feb 14 21:39:53 WARNING[6074] pbx.c: Requested contexts didn't get merged Is there any way to delete or

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

Hi List, When doing 'ael reload' on two servers, which are setup with asterisk 1.4.22 and 1.4.35 respectively, I am getting multiple lines of this strange error: ERROR[15483]: ael.flex:647 ael_yylex: Unhandled char(s): On three other servers with same versions of asterisk, i.e. 1.4.22, I don't see this error. Number of lines of the error are the same as the number of lines of the

I am struggling to find out how to code hint in AEL2. I did hint(Custom:light1) and it keeps complaining about the : (colon). It works fine for SIP device like hint(SIP/439). Anyone who has tried it before?

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

Almost two years ago, a change between how AEL code is built into Asterisk dialplan between minor versions made clear the need to provide a sane entry point into AEL subroutines and that's how AELSub() born. With Asterisk 11 release, they way [stdexten] at extensions.conf is invoked changed from Macro to Gosub using the 'missing context feature' and this caused that any stdexten

Hello, I see that most people are using the extensions.conf syntax (most of the examples and questions here use that syntax). recently I've translated all my dial plan to AEL syntax and I find it much easier, especially when you need IFs. Why most people don't use it? Am I missing something? Thanks! __Yehavi:

>>> 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

Hi It's possible using a variable in the iftime keyword argument? E.g: context text { s => { timerange = '06:00-12:00|*|*|*'; ifTime(${timerange} { Playback(ivr/goodbye); } } } thanks [image: Sua Foto] <rafaelsnsa at gmail.com>Rafael S.
