Hello,
Here's a fun issue that recently caused me some serious heartache.
Hope this helps others from making the same mistake.
Did you know that the configuration parser supports block-comments.
Like an idiot, I've been highlighting text between dashes.
[example]
; -- Most of my comments were single-line like this --
exten => _1X.,1,NoOp(This would load fine)
;
;-- I did not even use
block-comments like
this one in my config
file --;
;
exten => _2X.,1,NoOp(Loads OK)
;
;-- But look! -- I missed a space between the semi-colon and two dashes --
exten => _3X.,1,NoOp(This would NOT load)
; -- The parser stopped loading anything past the above mistake --
; -- Missing that space started a block-comment - Arghhh! --
exten => _4X.,1,NoOp(This would NOT load either)
; -end
Guess I have to change my highlight syntax, avoiding dashes in the future.
Sincerely,
Brian LaVallee

The configuration parser can do a lot of things. Out of curiosity
amongst those reading this - how many of you know about templates?

I use templates and wish the realtime parser would understand them as well. |

I love the idea of templates but since I use realtime database
configuration I cannot use them.

(You may get more replies with a more 'on-target' subject. I lost
interest in 'block comments' but was curious why the thread was still
getting replies.)
Love templates. Use them in extensions.conf, sip.conf, and iax.conf every
day.
Here's an example from extensions.conf:
[party-line](digit-timeout,h,i,max-timeout,pound-main,s)
same = n, agi(write-cdr)
same = n, background(${PROMPTS-PATH}/0116)
...
Where the templates look like:
[digit-timeout](!)
exten = t,1, goto(${CONTEXT},s,1)
[h](!)
exten = h,1, goto(finish-call,h,1)
[i](!)
exten = i,1, goto(${CONTEXT},s,1)
[max-timeout](!)
exten = T,1, goto(max-time,s,1)
[pound-main](!)
exten = #,1, goto(main-menu,s,1)
[s](!)
exten = s,1, verbose(1,[${EXTEN}@${CONTEXT}!${ANI}])
Note that the 's' template has to be the last template specified in the
template list. Also, that '${EXTEN}@${CONTEXT}' makes for a quick
cut-n-paste into the 'dialplan show' CLI command.

Thanks in advance,

Holy damn - I didn't know you could use templates in extensions! Mind =
Blown.
