[Asterisk-Users] Extensions - Realtime

CVS HEAD/Asterisk 1.2: Is there a way to have the entire
extensions.conffile coming from the realtime?

It appears that RealTime for the extensions.conf file is on a context by 
context basis, but you have to create each new context in the 
extensions.conf file then add a "switch => Realtime" line (then reload). I 
want to be able to add phones without having to edit any files. 

I'm using a PHP w/ MySQL AGI app to route my calls and all this would all be 
find except for blind transfers as I could use the channel variable itself 
to determine the source of the call. But, the blind transfer comes into the 
dialplan on the channel of the transferree with the context of the 
transferer. So, I need to have each phone in it's own context to determine 
what channel is actually requesting the transfer (for cdr, parking, routing, 
etc. reasons). As such, I have to create a new context each time I add a 
phone. 

I don't mind reloading so much and it looks like I'm not going to be able to 
avoid that anyways with the SIP RealTime cached (<--oxymoron) for MWI. The 
reason I don't want to edit files is that I'm sharing the dialplan between 
multiple boxes (the PHP app takes care of figuring out which box it is). I 
don't want to have to a. have to save the file on each box or b. map the 
files between boxes. 

!!! - Alternatively, if there is a way to determine in the dialplan who is 
the transferer without having each phone in it's own context, that would be 
fine.
