[Freeswitch-users] Forked dialing withdifferentchannelvarsset...

Fri Jun 6 06:16:15 PDT 2008

Yes the square braces and curly braces mean two different things.

For example if you do:

{foo=bar}sofia/blah1/blah,sofia/blah2/blah

foo=bar will be set on both blah1 and blah2 channels.

In this example:

[foo=bar]sofia/blah1/blah,[foo=baz]sofia/blah2/blah

In this example foo will have different values for each leg depending  
on which one is bridged to in the end.

If sofia/blah1 answers foo will be bar.. if sofia/blah2 answers foo  
will be baz

/b
