[asterisk-users] AMI extension states

[Anthony Francis]

Here is what I use.

sub devstate2str($)
{
  #func name stolen directly from asterisk
  #takes int devstate and returns string val
  my $ids              = shift;
  my $devstatestring   = {};
  $devstatestring->{0} = "Unknown";     #0 AST_DEVICE_UNKNOWN | Valid, 
but unknown state
  $devstatestring->{1} = "Not in use";  #1 AST_DEVICE_NOT_INUSE | Not used
  $devstatestring->{2} = "In use";      #2 AST_DEVICE IN USE | In use
  $devstatestring->{3} = "Busy";        #3 AST_DEVICE_BUSY | Busy
  $devstatestring->{4} = "Invalid";     #4 AST_DEVICE_INVALID | Invalid 
- not known to Asterisk
  $devstatestring->{5} = "Unavailable"; #5 AST_DEVICE_UNAVAILABLE | 
Unavailable (not registred)
  $devstatestring->{6} = "Ringing";     #6 AST_DEVICE_RINGING | Ring, 
ring, ring
  return $devstatestring->{$ids};
}

LIke the comment says, I stole it direct from the source. A code of 16 
may be a typo in which case you have found a bug.
