What I am trying to do is wait for the variable to be set. But it seems that the variable is never set in this code. Anyone have an idea on how to wait for a variable to be set? <extension name="public_extensions"> <condition field="destination_number" expression="^.*$"> <action application="set" data="hangup_after_bridge=true"/> <condition field="${my_dialstring}" expression="^$"> <action application="sleep" data="20"/> </condition> <condition field="${my_dialstring}" expression="^$"> <action application="sleep" data="500"/> </condition> <action application="bridge" data="${my_dialstring}"/> </condition> </extension> From: freeswitch-users-bounces@lists.freeswitch.org [mailto:freeswitch-users-bounces@lists.freeswitch.org] On Behalf Of aademattia@comcast.net Sent: Saturday, June 28, 2014 2:09 PM To: FreeSWITCH Users Help Subject: Re: [Freeswitch-users] condition I am trying to find out if the variable is not set. The problem is this condition fires if the variable is set or not set. If the variable is not set, I want it to sleep.
