Is there a differnce between return(0); and break; ?
just to clarify a little bit - the return code convention is like this: if a function returns 0, the entire script execution will be stopped. If is a negative value -> false; if positive ->true. Now, return(0) returns with code 0 -> is the same as exit -> it will terminated the script execution. on the other hand, break is used to terminate only the current route (is similar to return(1) )
Are you sure?
yes.
AFAIK break; return 0
that happens in ser, but has changed in openser to keep the compatibility -- in ser, break exists from current route and if(route()) is always true if there was a break.
This is a bug is ser because many functions exported for use in config rely that when returning 0, no further processing takes place (e.g., t_newtran() returns 0 if detects retransmission and if the t_newtran() is used in other route than 0, the retransmissions are processed).
So, in openser, 'break' is return(1) and there is also 'exit' which is return(0).
If return(0) also returns 0, then it is like break and only exits from the current route block.
If your statement is correct, it is possible to exit ser.cfg from any route block by return(0)?
yes, you can exit cfg from any route -- you can use also 'exit' which is more appropriate as name.
I didn't knew that.
It is written in the file with changes from ser to openser, but maybe not that obviously.
