[asterisk-users] Matching "+" at the beginning of the line

[Eugen Rogoza]

Hello,

I'm trying to match a number in international format, like +49XXXX...

The regexp string "^\+49" doesn't work. Both in $["+49..." : "^\+49"]
and ${REGEX("^\+49" ${NUMBER})}.

The error is:  WARNING[12486]: func_strings.c:138 regex: Malformed input
REGEX(): Invalid preceding regular expression.

The regexp expression "^49\+" works. Does Asterisk have problems
matching the plus at the beginning of the string, or am I escaping
something incorrectly?

Eugene
