[asterisk-users] Originate with label?

[Antony Stone]

Hi.

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+16+Application_Originate

I need to use Originate() in a dialplan, pointing to another location in the 
same extension of the same context, so for example:

Originate(Local/${Dest}@Dialout,exten,${CONTEXT},${EXTEN},158);

I don't seem to be able to substitute the priority 158 with a label - is this 
deliberate or is this a bug?

If it is deliberate, is there any workaround which would enable me to use 
Originate when the dialplan is written in AEL, which makes it not possible for 
me to define priority numbers?

(Alternatively, is there a way to define priority numbers in AEL?)

I'd prefer the first solution - being able to use Originate with a label as the 
target - as it's neater and more generic.


Thanks,


Antony.
