support for ID is still there, but I cannot see how they can be used
with the naming scheme in config (e.g., is it possible to have $f.i:34
in config to refer to avp with id 34?).
Hi Daniel,
i think its a good idea to go only for string names. We use only AVP aliases
all the time in our configurations, because this typed names were so
cumbersome to remember and type.
Drawback is the naming scheme backward compatibility.
We can treat
"i:20" simply as string or throw error at startup (I prefer the second
because is cleaner in long time).
I also think the second approach is better.
Cheers,
Henning
