Betreff: Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk parking hold and
transferdigittimeout

It seems that the dialplan comes into play. If your parking
lot is 700,
and you have any extension patterns that COULD begin with that, then
asterisk will wait to make SURE you're not typing 700xxxx:

Let's say that 700 is my parking lot extension.

exten => _NXXNXXXXXX,1,blahblahblah

This could match 7005551212, so asterisk waits around to make
sure I'm
not trying to find any more buttons before it accepts that I
meant 700.
As an example, if your parking lot extension was **, then
asterisk could
be pretty darn sure that that won't match anything else, and
will accept
it directly as a number to transfer too.


SOLUTION ###########################

Thanks for the tip, it was really the dialplan. In our * installations we
have an
outgoing context, named capi-out starting with this:

[capi-out]
exten => _XXX.,1,DoSomethingReallyImpressive()
...

After I changed it to:

[capi-out]
include => notfall ; special context for 3-digit emergency numbers
exten => _XXXX.,1,DoSomethingReallyImpressive()
...

[notfall]
exten => _11X,1,Dial(CAPI/ISDN3/${EXTEN}/b,60,tT)
...

BTW these includes are really magic, cause sometimes they don't do what you
(especially I) expext.
Please take a look at this:

EXAMPLE ###########################

;DIALPLAN
...

[capi-in]
include => capi-in-sub
exten => _955623XX,1,DoSomethingReallyImpressive()
...

[capi-in-sub]
exten => 9556230,1,DoSomethingReallyImpressive()
exten => 95562315,1,DoSomethingAnybodyWouldExpect()
...

Now, what happens:

Call for 9556230 reaches capi-in, is redirected through include statement to
capi-in-sub and executed.
So far so fine, expected behaviour.

Call for 95562315 reaches capi-in and is executed direct, the include
directive isn't executed at all!
Why?
Through the include statement, asterisk has to look first in capi-in-sub,
there it should
find this extension:
exten => 95562315,1,DoSomethingAnybodyWouldExpect()
...

and follow the dialplan under capi-in-sub since a valid extension was found.

What's wrong, any ideas?

According to this post:
http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-dev/2007-April/027281.html
"Includes are tacked on to the end of the dialplan they are mentioned
in, not where they stand."

So, since your "exten => _955623XX,1,DoSomethingReallyImpressive()"
matches, asterisk doesn't need to even bother checking the included context.
