Description:Greetings -

I had to specify this in my configuration file:

[general]
dbconn_string=Driver={PostgreSQL};Server=cflinux;Port=5432;Database=asteriskpilot;UID=asteriskpilot;PWD=qqq

When this file was read by asp_load(), everything including and after the first ";" was chopped off from the line and
all I've got in the application was "Driver={PostgreSQL}"

There is no chance that specification of ODBC driver connection string can be changed, and therefore cfg_process
function in asterisk/config.c needs to be modified to allow
specification of ";" with escapes. E.G.:

dbconn_string=Driver={PostgreSQL}\;Server=cflinux\;Port=5432\;Database=asteriskpilot\;UID=asteriskpilot\;PWD=qqq

Please help or confirm that escapes on config files is a good idea so that I implement this myself.

Thank you

Constantine
