Thank you very much for the quick answer, Alan. :-) Stefan -----Original Message----- From: freeradius-users-bounces+stefan.paetow=diamond.ac.uk@lists.freeradius.org [mailto:freeradius-users-bounces+stefan.paetow=diamond.ac.uk@lists.freeradius.org] On Behalf Of Alan DeKok Sent: 28 May 2013 17:15 To: FreeRadius users mailing list Subject: Re: Quick question about $ variables stefan.paetow@diamond.ac.uk wrote:
Hi all,
I've been looking at using ${...} variables wherever I can and so far it's been relatively successful. The only place where I am stuck is using some comparisons, e.g.
if ("%{Attribute}" == "${variable}") {
That's wrong. Use: if (Attribute == ${variable}) { - Attributes can be referenced just by their name. There's no need to wrap them in "%{...}". That is only for other strings. - wrapping the ${variable} in "" means it will *not* get expanded when the configuration file loads.
The Attribute portion expands, the $-variable part does not (although it is in double-quotes as per the unlang documentation). Quoting the literal value of the variable works.
Am I correct in saying that this is not supported? Just asking so I know how far I can push this :-)
"${variable}" is not supported, and will not be support. Alan DeKok. - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
