[Freeswitch-users] Mod perl using $session->setVariable inline

[Michael Jerris]

That perl script will not run at all until the dialplan parsing is complete.  You would need to run the perl script inline (which I am not sure we allow) or run the perl script, then transfer to re-enter the dialplan after it is run.

> However this will fail, because the perl script "$session->setVariable" run earlier is not inline, so you cant make use of it in the condition (<condition field="${some_var}" expression="123" >) in the second extension that exists in a later part of the public dialplan. Hence I need a way to set inline variables from my perl script.
