| 14:02.32 | leifmadsen | russellb: This chapter will focus on two important aspects of a PBX system; parking calls to allow answering them from a location different from where they were answered from, and paging, which allows the announcement of who the call is for, and how it can be retrieved. In Asterisk, these two functionalities are exclusive to one another, and can be used independent of each other. Some business which contain large ware |
| 14:02.32 | leifmadsen | houses, or have people who move around the office a lot and don't necessarily sit at a desk all day, utilize the paging and parking functionality of their system to direct calls around the office. In this chapter we show you how to use both parking and paging in the traditional setting, along with a couple of more modern takes on this commonly used functionality. |
| 14:10.58 | leifmadsen | russellb: I don't believe in angels, no. But I do have a wee parking angel. It's on my dashboard and you wind it up. The wings flap and it's supposed to give you a parking space. It's worked so far. |
| 14:11.33 | russellb | lol, how random |
| 14:17.25 | leifmadsen | ya :) |
| 14:17.33 | leifmadsen | I just typed "parking quotes" into google |
| 14:17.44 | leifmadsen | it makes me think about parking spaces in asterisk and how you almost always get one :) |
| 15:43.14 | Alric | waves. |
| 16:08.34 | russellb | leifmadsen: "Asterisk has this, that, and the other thing." |
| 16:08.37 | russellb | final comma or no? |
| 16:08.47 | leifmadsen | which chapter? :) |
| 16:08.48 | russellb | I was originally taught in school to use it. |
| 16:08.54 | leifmadsen | ahhh, no comma. |
| 16:09.00 | leifmadsen | it's a style perference though |
| 16:09.02 | russellb | and then in journalism, taught _not_ to use it, to save print space, lol |
| 16:09.03 | russellb | yeah |
| 16:09.13 | leifmadsen | Strunk and White says not to use it |
| 16:09.21 | russellb | k |
| 16:09.25 | russellb | I probably used it everywhere. |
| 16:09.27 | russellb | sorry :-0p |
| 16:09.33 | russellb | that's what copy editing is for :-) |
| 16:09.38 | Alric | Older American English, afaik, says to use it. |
| 16:13.07 | russellb | cool. |
| 16:13.10 | leifmadsen | it's a style thing, so neither is "wrong" |
| 16:13.25 | seanbright | i alternate |
| 16:13.35 | russellb | "Some of the disadvantages of a softphone are ... the fact that many PCs will at random times during the day choose to do something other than what the user wants them to do" |
| 16:13.37 | russellb | lold |
| 16:14.02 | russellb | such a gentle way to say "sometimes computers just suck" |

| 21:20.30 | Alric | dumb Chrome |
| 21:21.53 | jsmith | Nobody expects a Spanish inquisition |
| 21:22.40 | Alric | That seems random. |
| 21:22.57 | Alric | Unless the point was to indicate that my statement was also random. |
| 21:27.23 | jsmith | You, my friend, figured it out :-p |
| 21:27.38 | jsmith | (and obviously haven't seen/heard enough Monty Python) |
| 21:27.39 | Alric | My Chrome seems to be locking up each time it encounters a flash-based website. |
| 21:27.54 | Alric | Which is somewhat inconvenient. |
| 21:28.18 | Alric | Can you pass multiple values to a FUNC_ODBC function? |
| 21:30.29 | Alric | needs to find that book he got. |
| 21:30.46 | Alric | Seems some smart guys have probably written something about this before. |
| 21:37.15 | Alric | ahh |
| 21:38.08 | jsmith | Yes, you can pass multiple values |
| 21:39.27 | Alric | This makes sense now. |
| 21:41.21 | Alric | boggles. |
| 21:42.22 | Alric | Well this is strange. |
| 21:42.41 | Alric | reload is crashing this asterisk. |
| 21:44.15 | Alric | Thats strange |
| 21:44.24 | Alric | I had the following: |
| 21:44.38 | Alric | exten => 100,Set(ODBC_QUEUE()=blah,blah,blah) |
| 21:44.55 | Alric | reload with that = crash. add a '1' priority in there and it works fine. |
| 21:48.49 | jsmith | Sounds like a bug |
| 21:48.57 | jsmith | (shouldn't crash on bad dialplan) |
| 21:50.34 | Alric | its not core dumping for some reason |
| 21:53.16 | jsmith | Did you start it w/ the -g flag? |
| 21:53.38 | Alric | it wasn't. I put dump_core = yes in asterisk.conf now |
| 21:54.00 | Alric | or dumpcore |
| 22:06.00 | Alric | got it |
| 22:22.21 | Alric | leifmadsen: bt and bt full on the core, right? |
| 22:29.37 | Alric | Alrighty. All submitted. |
