Hello,
things are different that one may expect from evaluation of an expression compared with other established scripting/programming languages. One thing to be sure you are aware of are the return code evaluation:
- https://www.kamailio.org/wiki/tutorials/faq/main#how_is_the_function_return_...
To be sure of proper behaviour, you should do:
if(uri =~ "<regex string to match>" || uri == myself) {
$var(myself) =1;
} else {
$var(myself) = 0;
}
Same with is_myself("$ru") instead of uri == myself.
Try and see if you get different values for $var(myself).
Cheers, Daniel

Yes, they are used at the very same place. here is a code snippet of where i added it for testing purposes:
route[INIT_VARS] {
$var(myself) = uri =~ "<regex string to match>" || uri == myself; //if i print $var(myself) it prints 0 $var(myself) = uri =~ "<regex string to match>" || is_myself("$ru"); //if i print $var(myself) it prints 1
// in both cases above the regex part isn't supposed to match and hence correctly returns false. ...
}
route{
route(INIT_VARS);
... }
Thanks,

Are they used at the same place in config? Note that $ru can be changed by different functions such as those from registrar, dispatcher, lcr, ...
