             Summary: pbx_variables: ast_str_substitute_variables completely ignores substrings
                 Key: ASTERISK-29966
                 URL: https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-29966
             Project: Asterisk
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: None
          Components: PBX/General
    Affects Versions: 18.10.1
            Reporter: N A
            Severity: Major


Bug: ast_str_substitute_variables completely ignores substrings.

Workaround: Use pbx_substitute_variables_helper instead, which works correctly.

It seems the former is simply the ast_str equivalent of the latter, so in this case, they do NOT have feature parity and ast_str_substitute_variables needs to be fixed to have the same behavior as the pbx_ function.

I am marking this as major as even though there is a workaround (do not use the ast_str functions), that requires changing the Asterisk source to do that so there is no easy workaround for users of modules that are using ast_str functions internally.

Complete detail analysis with code examples below:

Okay, so now what happens if I change from ast_str_retrieve_variables_full to pbx_substitute_variables_helper ??

With pbx helper, everything just works correctly.
You can confirm above that these two functions are substituting the exact same expression in the exact same circumstances.
