Name
Set() — Sets a variable to the specified value
Sets the variable n
to the
specified value
. Also sets the variable
n2
to the value of
value2
. If the variable name is prefixed
with _
, single inheritance is
assumed. If the variable name is prefixed with _ _
, infinite inheritance is assumed.
Inheritance is used when you want channels created from the current
channel to inherit the variable from the current channel.
If the options
parameter is set to
g
, the variables will be set as
global variables instead of channel variables.
; set a variable called DIALTIME, then use it
exten => 123,1,Set(DIALTIME=20)
exten => 123,1,Dial(Zap/4/5551212,,${DIALTIME})
Note
The setting of multiple variables and the use of the g
option have been deprecated. Please use
multiple calls to Set()
and the
GLOBAL()
dialplan function
instead.
