Subject: [asterisk-users] Global variables in global variables<br>
Message-ID: <<a href="mailto:202301182308.48557.Antony.Stone@asterisk.open.source.it" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer">202301182308.48557.Antony.Stone@asterisk.open.source.it</a>><br>

Hi.<br>
<br>
I have a very old dialplan (ie: a dialplan for a very old version of Asterisk) <br>
which I've just transferred to Asterisk 16.28.0<br>
<br>
The [globals] section of that dialplan includes:<br>
<br>
Kphones=SIP/KC470IP&SIP/KSnom870<br>
Sphones=SIP/SYealinkT38G&SIP/SGC610IP<br>
Allphones=${Kphones}&${Sphones}<br>
<br>
In the old system, this results in ${Allphones} containing:<br>
<br>
SIP/KC470IP&SIP/KSnom870&SIP/SYealinkT38G&SIP/SGC610IP<br>
<br>
I can use this in a dial() command.<br>
<br>
On the new system, the variable ${Allphones} ends up containing:<br>
<br>
${Kphones}&${Sphones}<br>
<br>
(ie: the unexpanded variable names, not the content of those previously-<br>
defined variables.)<br>
<br>
This fairly obviously does not work in a dial() command.<br>
<br>
<br>
a) is this a deliberate backward incompatiblity at some stage in the <br>
development of Asterisk?<br>
<br>
b) if not, is this a known bug?<br>
<br>
c) is there some other way I'm supposed to be doing this now, to be able to <br>
define a global variable including the value of another global variable?<br>
<br>
d) if not, is there some workaround?<br>
<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
<br>
Antony.<br>
