Summary:                    CDR fileds not being written from "h" extension or
after "Dial" command completes.
Description: 
We have dial macros that handle our dialing. we use both the "g" and "e"
options in the Dial command so that we can store addtional data after the
call is hung up. The issue is that when a call is hung up and we do a
Set(CDR(field)=value) the value is not stored. Any vlaue set before the
dial is made is stored correctly but nothing after the dial. We have
confirmed that endbeforehexten=no but this does not seem to have any
bearing on the issue. It appears that the cdr is written before any updates
can be made using the "g" or "e" process options. I have included a small
snip of code in the Additonal Info field here.  Tested on 1.6.2.14 and
1.8/SVN

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
I think this is a "feature", rather than a bug.  The bridge and channel
CDRs get swapped in the "h" extension code and swapped back afterwards, or
something similar.  We worked round this sort of thing by using ResetCDR to
force the CDR out.

Also, I seem to remember this question on the Asterisk Forum.  If it was,
you should include a link, so that people can see the full discussion.
