@@ -709,12 +709,13 @@ compromised. The probability of EPICS minor release upgrade recompilation
dependency will also increase. Codes intending to maintain the highest degree
of portability over a wide range of EPICS versions should be especially
careful. For example such codes should replace all instances of
"channel_id->type" with ca_element_count(channel_id)". This approach
should be reliable on all versions of EPICS in use today. The construct
"ca_puser(chid) = xxxx" is particularly problematic. The best mechanisms for
setting the per channel private pointer will be to pass the user private
pointer in when creating the channel. This approach is implemented on all
versions. Otherwise, you can also use "ca_set_puser(CHID,PUSER), but this
<code>channel_id-&gt;type</code> with
<code>ca_element_count(channel_id)</code>. This approach should be reliable

Otherwise, you can also use <code>ca_set_puser(CHID,PUSER)</code>, but this
will work only on post beta releases of R3.13 and on R3.14. </p>
