[Asterisk-Users] AEL #include

[Douglas Garstang]

Michael,
 
Well.... I don't know if I am missing something or not, but we have various loops and other things in there. So, we need to use the good old ugly goto().
How would goto work if all the priorities where n?

	Doug,
	
	This may be a dumb question but I wanted to make sure: are you using the
	'n' priority in your number plans?  (If not, could you let us know why?
	Very curious here.)  Same question regarding the giving of names to 'n'
	priorities.
	
	Example from one of my dial plans:
	
	exten => talk,1,ForkCDR
	exten => talk,n,Set(NUMTRIES=1)
	exten => talk,n,GotoIf($[${NUMTRIES} = 1]?first)
	exten => talk,n(repeat),Background(Initial-greeting)
	exten => talk,n(first),Wait(.1)
	exten => talk,n,Festival(${fname})
	exten => talk,n,Festival(${lname})
	exten => talk,n,Background(If-person1)
	exten => talk,n,GotoIf($[${NUMTRIES} < 2]?repeat)
	exten => talk,n,Set(NUMTRIES=$[${NUMTRIES}+1])
	exten => talk,n,Goto(t,1)
	
	
	I know you have specific needs for your application and none of this may
	apply, but I figure it's better to be certain.
	
	Thanks for your input!
	-MC
