Just add the line: ATTRIBUTE Class 25 string to the end of raddb/dictionary. It will override the type defined in the standard dictionaries, which you may not want to fiddle with too much. On Thu, Jan 27, 2011 at 2:45 PM, Brian Candler <B.Candler@pobox.com> wrote:
In an accounting server, I would like to be able to parse the Class attribute with a regexp to pull parts out. However the standard dictionary defines it as 'octets' which makes it hard to parse - and I'd like to avoid modifying the dictionary if possible.
Copying it to a 'string' attribute doesn't help, because it gets hex-expanded at that point. e.g.
Reply-Message := "%{Class}" }
gives
Class = 0x466f6f7c426172 Reply-Message = "0x466f6f7c426172"
I notice that recently a %{integer:...} expansion was added. Is there perhaps a case for a corresponding %{string:...} expansion? Or is there a better way to do this?
