[SR-Users] Re: Question - Kamailio script and how the return code from a command export is handled as a boolean?

In Kamailio script, see this example: if (!jansson_get("method", $rb, "$var(method)")) { xhttp_reply("400", "Bad Request", "", ""); exit; } This code works, but I'm not sure why. Command "jansson_get" returns 1 if successful, and -1 if fails. Both values should be false. Which I can see when testing with this: $var(r) = jansson_get("method", $rb, "$var(method)"); xlog("L_INFO", "jansson_get r: [$var(r)]\n"); if (!$var(r)) { xlog("L_INFO", "jansson_get r: [$var(r)] => FALSE\n"); } else { xlog("L_INFO", "jansson_get r: [$var(r)] => TRUE\n"); } In all cases, the result is always TRUE. Is there some kind of "magic" conversion when directly checking the return of a command in Kamailio script ? With KEMI python, the equivalent does not work: if not KSR.jansson.get("method", KSR.pv.get("$rb"), "$var(method)"): KSR.xhttp.xhttp_reply(400, "Bad Request", "", "") return 1 So I have to do the following instead: if KSR.jansson.get("method", KSR.pv.get("$rb"), "$var(method)") < 0: KSR.xhttp.xhttp_reply(400, "Bad Request", "", "") return 1 Thank you for your help.
