I am an asterisk newbie. Currently I want to dial some number from my AGI server using exec("Dial",..) command and I would like to be able to know when no one's answering the call by checking DIALSTATUS == noanswer. I have tried transferring the dial command to the dialplan and getting the DIALSTATUS from there but its always empty. I have tried getting the DIALSTATUS in the AGI but it didnt work.
example:
first try:
public void service(AgiRequest request, AgiChannel channel)
{
exec("Dial","SIP/" + "7004" + ",60,G(from-internal-custom,1301,1)");
String dialStatus = request.getParameter("DIALSTATUS");
exec("NoOp","dial status is = " + dialStatus); //it is always empty (i think its
because the moment the first dialplan goes to the AGI,DIALSTATUS is not
initialized yet since I havent even issued dial command)
}
second try:
in the dialplan:
exten => 1301,1,NoOp(dial status is = ${DIALSTATUS})
exten => 1301,2,NoOp(dial status is = ${DIALSTATUS})
exten => 1301,3,NoOp(dial status is = ${DIALSTATUS})
exten => 1301,4,NoOp(dial status is = ${DIALSTATUS})
//all of them is empty
so how can I get the value of DIALSTATUS if I issue the dial command from AGI? thank you so much for the kind answer
