Heres an expanded example;
Extension runs the perl script as part of the public dialplan first;
<extension name="run-script" continue="true">
<condition>
<action application="perl" data="/etc/freeswitch/scripts/my-script.pl"/>
</condition>
</extension>
Script sets some variables;
$my_value = "123";
$session->setVariable('some_var',$my_value);
Use that variable later in another extension in the public dialplan as a condition selector;
<extension name="bridge-call" >
<condition field="context" expression="public" />
<condition field="${some_var}" expression="123" >
<action application="set" data="call_direction=inbound"/>
<action application="bridge" data="sofia/internal/${destination_number}@1.2.3.4:5060" />
</condition>
</extension>
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.

If you are in a perl script using session->setVariable, how are you still in the dialplan? This doesn't make sense to me. There should be no need for an inline if you are already in the script.
