Description:The attached patch uses jsmith's suggestion in ASTERISK-1092989 to implement a READSTATUS channel variable when digits are read.


****** ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ******

Here is an example usage (taken from Corydon76), to implement an interruptible menu with arbitrary logic:

exten => 100,n,ExecIf($["${READSTATUS}" = "TIMEOUT"],Read,VAR,my-message2,1,,,0.001)
exten => 100,n,ExecIf($["${READSTATUS}" = "TIMEOUT"],Read,VAR,my-message3,1,,,86400)
exten => 100,n,GotoIf($["${VAR}" = ""]?PoundKeyPressed)

Other READSTATUS values are: ERROR, INTERRUPTED (when the command stream has traffic on it), and OK.

This would be best implemented in app_read.c

We don't really want to change the READSTATUS variable every time those functions are called.

As you wish.  Attached are two patches... one for SVN trunk, and one for 1.4.13 (in case some user wants the feature there).

Oops... that needs a trivial documentation fix in both patches: "ERRROR" in the help text should be "ERROR".

I think the asterisk-85943-READSTATUS.diff was mistakenly deleted.

Could you please reupload it?

By: Michael FIG (michael-fig) 2007-10-17 17:01:15

I've reuploaded asterisk-86033-READSTATUS.diff, which supercedes 85943.

Is there a reason you're checking the channel for zombie status near the end?

Superstition.  I'm not sure what it does, exactly.
