Accessing channel variables

Within the Dialplan, variables are accessed with a special notation: ${variable_name}. Consider the following example:

<action application="log" data="INFO The value in sip_authorized is '${sip_authorized}'"/>

This action would print a log message to the FreeSWITCH command line as follows:

2009-12-09 14:32:48.904383 [INFO] mod_dptools.c:897 The value in sip_authorized is 'true'

Accessing the read-only values is much the same. Each of these values has a corresponding channel variable name. For example:

<action application="log" data="INFO The value of Unique-ID is '${uuid}'"/>

This will print a log line on the FreeSWITCH command line as follows:

2009-12-09 14:46:31.695458 [INFO] mod_dptools.c:897 The value of Unique-ID is '169ae42e-29f5-4e1c-9505-8ee6ef643081'
