Environment:Attachments:( 0) blindtransfer+forkcdr_SVN-trunk-r26655.log
Description:When A calls B, and B blindtransfers the call to C, I ForkCDR to make 2 CDR records. I want the first call to have accountcode of user A, and the second (the blindtransfered) call to have accountcode of user B.
When I ForkCDR, both calls have the same accountcode (user A's). If I ForkCDR before the new Dial (in the middle of the blindtransfer), I would expect the new cdr to have accountcode of the account that's making the transfer, not the original caller.

thanks.

Uploaded file shows SIP/1003 calling SIP/1002, and then SIP/1002 blindtransfers the call to SIP/1001, ForkingCDR before the second Dial.

I've been looking at the source code trying to solve this myself. It's not an easy task to try to undestand this beast with no background :) so I have a design question. Correct me if I'm wrong.
ast_chan->cdr is a pointer to a linked list of cdr's for a channel, but apparently from ast_cdr_setaccount() it is expected that every ast_chan->cdr->accountcode to be the same.. It doesn't make sense to me, from a billing system point of view. Please give me some clues on this. Thank you.

I think this question would be better if it was asked on the Asterisk-Dev mailing list then here... it's more of a design question and proper behavior question that I don't think anybody can outright answer.
