Setting effecting_caller_id_name

26 Jul 2012

      And while I'm asking dumb questions.

When doing CNAM dips from opencnam.com, often you get a result of "Currently
running a lookup for phone 'xxxxxxxxxx'. on incoming calls, typically for
wireless or other unknown name callers and I wanted to change that to
"Wireless/Unknown"  Since caller_id_name is apparently read-only, I am
attempting to set effective_caller_id_name.  I put the following in
public.xml right below the "fix_cidnam_plus" entry, in other words after a
CNAM lookup has been performed.

   <extension name="fix_currently_running" continue="true">
      <condition field="caller_id_name" expression="^Currently running a
lookup">
        <action application="set"
data="effective_caller_id_name=Wireless/Unknown"/>
      </condition>
    </extension>

If I crafted my regex properly, then it should be matching on the first part
of the string and setting the variable appropriately.  Is
'effective_caller_id_name' the variable I should be setting?
