Thanks Brian, Then by the looks, there is something broken. When a variable (say MyAppName) is exported as "nolocal", it appears in A leg CDR as "<nolocal:MyAppName>HelloWorldApp</nolocal:MyAppName>", which then breaks the XML (those strict parsers). In the line I pointed earlier; as I understand, if the variable being exported from dial_plan is set "nolocal" should be ignored for A. I can fix and checkin or send a patch; but not sure if it will break anything else. "dk" On 22 June 2010 17:25, Brian West <brian@freeswitch.org> wrote:

nolocal is just like setting inside {} so its not on the A leg but only on the B leg.

Guys,

When I export a variable as nolocal, is it intended to prefix "nolocal:" for that variable on A, when that appears in the CDR?

Or is it a glitch?

Ref: src/mod/applications/mod_dptools/mod_dptools.c line 889

Here if you check, the export seems to ignore the local variable altogether.

I am quite new to freeswitch; any help much appreciated.

Many thanks, "dk"

That is completely unrelated. I added that function so one can all switch_channel_export_variable() instead of switch_channel_set_variable() followed by getting "exports" and appending the name of the new variable. As for nolocal, it actually saves the variable with a prefix so it has no effect on the A-leg, what would be the proper fix for the xml without completely wiping the entry away? Its sometimes useful to know something was exported for the B-leg. Can we escape the : ?

remove switch_channel_export_variable's nolocal argument, more confusing than anything else

Hi Mathieu, Is there any update on this issue ? I stumbled onto it just now. I'm doing something like this: 1 - inbound context: set a-leg identity_id as channel variable identity_id 2 - lookup context: set b-leg identity_id as channel variable nolocal:identity_id 3 - outbound context: use nolocal:identity_id in condition to do some actions and eventually bridge 4 - generate separate a- and b-leg xml cdr's My xml cdr parser breaks on the nolocal: prefix on some variables in the a-leg cdr. (4) One other issue I'm having is that it seems I can't use nolocal: channel variables in xml dialplan conditions. (3) This is probably because the colon is used in for example ${foo:5} to get the 5 first characters, so I can't do something like this: <extension name="foo"> <condition field="${nolocal:identity_id}" expression="bar"> <action etc.... Is there any solution to doing this ? Thanks a lot, Leon On Jun 23, 2010, at 5:49 AM, Mathieu Rene wrote:
