[OpenSIPS-Users] Problem with gflags

[Saint Michael]

I just need to know how to check for the gflag inside the code
this:
 if (is_gflag("1")) {..}
does not work, even if the flag is (1), as I wrote this test from the
command line works

opensips-cli -x mi is_gflag 1
true

As you can see, unless you can test for the gflag value inside the
code, it cannot be used. The module gflag is of a great importance
when managing Opensips, because it allows for an orderly shutdown
without losing CDR, that is: money.

Many thanks.





Thank you!
