NoOp() — Does nothing
Does nothing—this application is simply a placeholder.
This application is often used as a debugging tool. Whenever
Asterisk’s core verbosity level is set to 3 or above, Asterisk
evaluates and prints each line of the dialplan before executing it.
This means that any arguments passed to the NoOp()
application (in the
text
parameter) are printed to the console.
By watching the console output, a skilled Asterisk administrator can
use this output to debug problems in the dialplan.
