The
functionality will be included in avpops, but I cannot give an exact
time line right now. There are a lot of operations that can be performed
with avps and I should make a list with priorities, perhaps math
operations with integers and string concatenation would be the first.
Also, conversions from int to string and vice-versa...
string concatenation is probably the most valuable.
math with integer, can't think of an application.
conversions between int and string, would it be transparent to user?
As much as possible.
For
example, inv-timeout uses int value. In avp_write("16",
"s:inv-timeout"), we
didn't specify if 16 is a number or not, is it string by default?
yes
Also in
the db table, avp type is 0, meaning string value. We haven't encountered
any problem.
In your case is no need for conversion, I am thinking to concatenation
of a string value with a int value, or converting specific values
extracted from headers (eg., Expires) to int for some comparison operations.
