[asterisk-dev] No unique identifier for CDR

[Nick Lewis]

I have come up against a problem that there is no unique identifier for
a CDR. This makes it difficult to associate other things such as call
monitor recordings with a CDR. 
Each call does have a unique identifier which is stored in the CDR as
"uniqueid" but there may be multiple CDRs representing one call. For
example ResetCDR(w) saves a CDR and creates a new one for the call. Both
CDR have the same "uniqueid".
 
I propose a new read-only CDR field named something like "cdrinstance"
that automatically increments after a ResetCDR(w) command. This can be
used in conjunction with the "uniqueid" field to form a unique CDR
identifier.
 
Do you agree that the lack of a unique identifier for a CDR is a
problem. If so what do you think of my proposed approach for a solution?
