dbCommon.dbd +

dbStaticLib +

+breakpoint tables +

Tables names were previously forced to be alphanumeric. This restriction +is removed. +

drvTS.c +

removed potential infinite recursion from tsForceSoftSync() +

drvSup.h +

removed definition for  reboot. +

dbNotify +

If  dbPutNotify called dbProcess and dbProcess returned an error +the notify completion callback was called twice. This bug is fixed. +

drvBB232 +

This support was defining storage twice. A bug in the current gcc compiler +supplied with tornado does not properl;y compile such code. The extra definitions +are removed. +

aiRecord and aoRecord +

eoff was not being reinitialized when conversion related fields were +dynamically modified. +

compressRecord +

compressALG_N_to_1_Median (compress keeping median value) added. +

mbbiDirectRecord +

When just the record's severity changed, only monitors on the VAL fields +were posted, no monitors on the single bit fields. +

devApsEr.c +

ErGetTicks now locks while updating ticks +

devCommonGpib +

sscanf response now checked to be equal to 1 rather than just not zero. +

bitbus support +

This support is now unbundled. DO NOT use the version in base. This +includes the following +

+NOTE: drvBitBusInterface.h and drvBitBusErr.h appear in both base and unbundled +because drvGib uses it.  Must be fixed when gpib is unbundled. +

devOpt support +

The following gpib support modules have been changed to fix compiler +bug fot vxWorks 5.3: +

+mkdir.pl and rm.pl +

 getopt() changed to  getopt ""; +

rc2.logServer +

Moved  export statements to the right place. +

access security +

Issue better error message if access security initialization fails. +

makeBaseApp +
