=== These files document all the changes that MUST be taken

|
|
=== some cases) source code if you have your own Asterisk
|
|
=== modules or patches. These files also includes advance
|
|
=== notice of any functionality that has been marked as
|
|
=== 'deprecated' and may be removed in a future release,
|
|
=== along with the suggested replacement functionality.

===========================================================
|
|
|
|
From 1.6.0.1 to 1.6.1:
|
|
|
|
* The ast_agi_register_multiple() and ast_agi_unregister_multiple()
|
|
API calls were added in 1.6.0, so that modules that provide multiple
|
|
AGI commands could register/unregister them all with a single
|
|
step. However, these API calls were not implemented properly, and did
|
|
not allow the caller to know whether registration or unregistration
|
|
succeeded or failed. They have been redefined to now return success
|
|
or failure, but this means any code using these functions will need
|
|
be recompiled after upgrading to a version of Asterisk containing
|
|
these changes. In addition, the source code using these functions
|
|
should be reviewed to ensure it can properly react to failure
|
|
of registration or unregistration of its API commands.
|
|
|
|
* The ast_agi_fdprintf() API call has been renamed to ast_agi_send()
|
|
to better match what it really does, and the argument order has been
|
|
changed to be consistent with other API calls that perform similar
|
|
operations.
|
|
|
|
From 1.6.0.x to 1.6.1:
|
|
|
|
* The following core commands dealing with dialplan have been deprecated: 'core
|
|
show globals', 'core set global' and 'core set chanvar'. Use the equivalent
|
|
'dialplan show globals', 'dialplan set global' and 'dialplan set chanvar'
|
|
instead.
|
|
|
|
* In the dialplan expression parser, the logical value of spaces
|
|
immediately preceding a standalone 0 previously evaluated to
|
|
true. It now evaluates to false. This has confused a good many
|
|
people in the past (typically because they failed to realize the
|
|
space had any significance). Since this violates the Principle of
|
|
Least Surprise, it has been changed.
|
|
|
|
* While app_directory has always relied on having a voicemail.conf or users.conf file
|
|
correctly set up, it now is dependent on app_voicemail being compiled as well.
|
|
|
|
* SIP: All of the functionality in SIPCHANINFO() has been implemented in CHANNEL(),
|
|
and you should start using that function instead for retrieving information about
|
|
the channel in a technology-agnostic way.
|
|
|
|
* If you have any third party modules which use a config file variable whose
|
|
name ends in a '+', please note that the append capability added to this
|
|
version may now conflict with that variable naming scheme. An easy
|
|
workaround is to ensure that a space occurs between the '+' and the '=',
|
|
to differentiate your variable from the append operator. This potential
|
|
conflict is unlikely, but is documented here to be thorough.
|
|
|
|
From 1.6.1 to 1.6.2:
|
|
|
|
* The default console now will use colors according to the default background
|
|
color, instead of forcing the background color to black. If you are using a
|
|
light colored background for your console, you may wish to use the option
|
|
flag '-W' to present better color choices for the various messages. However,
|
|
if you'd prefer the old method of forcing colors to white text on a black
|
|
background, the compatibility option -B is provided for this purpose.
|
|
|
|
* SendImage() no longer hangs up the channel on transmission error or on
|
|
any other error; in those cases, a FAILURE status is stored in
|
|
SENDIMAGESTATUS and dialplan execution continues. The possible
|
|
return values stored in SENDIMAGESTATUS are: SUCCESS, FAILURE, and
|
|
UNSUPPORTED. ('OK' has been replaced with 'SUCCESS', and 'NOSUPPORT'
|
|
has been replaced with 'UNSUPPORTED'). This change makes the
|
|
SendImage application more consistent with other applications.
|
|
|
|
* skinny.conf now has seperate sections for lines and devices.
|
|
Please have a look at configs/skinny.conf.sample and update
|
|
your skinny.conf.
|
|
|
|
* Queue names previously were treated in a case-sensitive manner,
|
|
meaning that queues with names like "sales" and "sALeS" would be
|
|
seen as unique queues. The parsing logic has changed to use
|
|
case-insensitive comparisons now when originally hashing based on
|
|
queue names, meaning that now the two queues mentioned as examples
|
|
earlier will be seen as having the same name.
