Description:In AEL ${MACRO_EXTEN} and other MACRO_... is emtpy:
   -- Executing [s@test-macros:3] NoOp("SIP/100-0825a0d8", "EXTEN=s MACRO_EXTEN=") in new stack

But in the same dialplan in asterisk-1.4.4 this variable have properly value:
   -- Executing [s@macro-test-macros:3] NoOp("SIP/100-0823bfc0", "EXTEN=s MACRO_EXTEN=123") in new stack

In attach all information what I cat catch.
I dont know how to catch more.

****** ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ******

My context in extensions.conf:
exten=> 2221,1,Goto(testmacros,123,1)

My extensions.ael:
context testmacros {

       123 => {
               &test-macros(10,"test");
               Hangup();
       }
}

macro test-macros(var1,var2)
{
       noop(EXTEN=${EXTEN} MACRO_EXTEN=${MACRO_EXTEN});
}

The problem that's biting you here is that AEL in trunk, uses GOSUB instead of Macro to execute (and define) macros. In a gosub, you don't get the cool MACRO_EXTEN and friends.  Note that in the trunk version, it didn't call MACRO, it called Gosub to go to the test-macros routines. Review the docs for Gosub and Macro, and somewhere in the release docs for trunk/1.4, I explain why I changed. If you can't find it, I'll regurgitate it in this bug. Reopen and demand an explanation, and I'll be happy to regurgitate the reasons for the change.

So, I'm closing this one now. See above.
