[OpenSIPS-Users] Set flag at runtime?

Per the documentation [1], the CLI command wants the value as an integer, not quoted.

Have you tried

# opensipsctl fifo set_gflag 1

Subject: Re: [OpenSIPS-Users] Set flag at runtime?
So I'm trying to use gflags.so in 2.4.7

I set the module as:

loadmodule "gflags.so"
modparam("gflags", "initial", 0)

then i'm doing:

if (is_gflag("1")) {
        xlog("L_ERR", "[$ci][$rm]: gflag(1) is set\n");
} else {
    xlog("L_ERR", "[$ci][$rm]: gflag(1) is not set\n");
}

Then, via CLI I'm setting the flag like so:

# opensipsctl fifo is_gflag "1"
FALSE

And is set it with:

# opensipsctl fifo set_gflag "1"

and check it is actually set:

# opensipsctl fifo is_gflag "1"
TRUE

But no matter what i do, the script always sees the flag as not set.

Did I misunderstand the purpose of the module? I want to be able to set the flag dynamically from the CLI to enable/disable a feature at runtime... is this not possible?

thanks guys.

Hello guys,

On 2.4 is it possible to set a flag at runtime? I want to set a feature toggle based on that.
