What version did Asterisk change form 'core set global …' to 'dialplan set global...'

FreePBX Development

I noticed on Asterisk 1.8 that FreePBX and ARI are not setting the DEVICE_STATE() of things like Follow-Me, DND, etc.

It’s because we are sending commands through the AMI such as “core set global DEVICE_STATE(DEVDND300) BUSY” and the syntax has changed to “dialplan set global …”

So … can someone tell me what version this changed in. I know on 1.4 it was ‘core set global…’ (or at least that still worked. I need to know what the earliest version of Asterisk was that started using ‘dialplan set global…’ was (1.6.0, 1.6.1 or 1.6.2?) So that I can get the changes into 1t least 2.9 and 2.10 and get these back working.

Thanks for you help, I don’t have any 1.6.X systems to look at and answer this.

alan_mousty,

thanks … I’ll change it for now to start at 1.6.1 then.

now if someone can actually test a 1.6.1 system to see if that is right or not it would be much appreciated!
