[asterisk-users] AEL2 Looping

[Douglas Garstang]

I was just experimenting with AEL2, and tried to use a for loop as per the example.
Here's what I have.

context new_pbx_betty_start {

    _X. => { 
        for (x=0; ${x} < 3; x=${x} + 1) { 
            Verbose(x is ${x} !); 
        }                  
    }; 

}

Here's the output.

The var x never gets incremented! Is this a bug?
The while loops seem to work ok.

x is 0 !
