Telegraph users - Jul 2007 - Is this a bug?

I have a controller called prompts.

I have a method called record. It goes like this.

 @prompt = Prompt.find(8)

    @prompt_directory
"#{Telegraph::Config::Globals[''sound_path'']}/#{File.dirname(@prompt.file_name)}/"
    logger.info @prompt_directory

    @prompt_file_name = File.basename(@prompt.file_name)
    logger.info @prompt_file_name

    srand

    @temp_file_name
"/tmp/#{rand(10000000000000000000000000000000000000)}" if
@temp_file_name.nil?
    logger.info @temp_file_name
    respond_to do |format|
      #   wants.xml {}
      format.html  do
         rami_dialout
         render
      end #html
      format.voice do
         render_voice
      end #format.voice
    end
  end


record.voice looks like this.
-----------
voice.play @prs_prompts[:recording_instructions]
logger.info "recording " + @temp_file_name
r = voice.record_file(@temp_file_name , 120, true, 100 )
logger.info "recorded " + r.to_yaml

voice.redirect_to  :action=>''accept_menu''

---------------------


In accept_menu.voice  @temp_file_name is not in scope.  It''s nil.

That looks like a bug to me. Is it supposed to be this way?

Tim -
   I don''t think its a bug, from my understanding of what you are  
doing.  When you do a redirect its like a new call to a new action.   
So @temp_file_name was defined by the record action/method.

I encourage you to look at the Telegraph forms implementation.  It  
was designed to basically deal with this sort of situation.  If you  
record using a form it''ll send the filename you recorded to to the  
next action that the "form" results are "posted" to.  It
basically
keeps the MVC style and allows you to do exactly what I believe you  
are doing.

Also, I''m curious why  you are using the rami_dialout and not the  
Telegraph AMI implementation?
