+# pvDatabaseCPP
+
+The EPICS **pvDatabase** module provides a set of network accessible, smart, memory resident records with a C++ API. Each record has data composed of a top level PVStructure. Each record has a name which is the channelName for pvAccess. A local Channel Provider implements the complete ChannelProvider and Channel interfaces as defined by pvAccess. The local provider gives access to the records in the pvDatabase. This local provider is accessed by the remote pvAccess server. A record is smart because code can be attached to a record, which is accessed via a method named process.
+
+The pvDatabase module implements a synchronous C++ server interface to pvAccessCPP that was designed to be easier to use than the basic pvAccess server API.
+
+## Links
+
+- General information about EPICS can be found at the
+  [EPICS Controls website](https://epics-controls.org).
+- API documentation for this module can be found in its
+  documentation directory, in particular the file
+  pvDatabaseCPP.html
+
+## Building
+
+This module is included as a submodule of a full EPICS 7 release and will be compiled during builds of that software.
+
+## Examples
+
+Some examples are available in the separate exampleCPP module.

-Release 4.0 IN DEVELOPMENT
-===========
+# pvDatabaseCPP Module
 
-The main changes since release 3.0.2 are:
+This document summarizes the changes to the module between releases.
 
-* array semantics now enforce Copy On Write.
-* String no longer defined.
-* toString replaced by stream I/O 
-* union is new type.
-* copy and monitor use new code in pvDataCPP
+## Release 4.5.1 (EPICS 7.0.3.1, Nov 2019)
 
-New Semantics for Arrays
---------
-
-pvDatabaseCPP has been changed to use the new array implementation from pvDataCPP.
-
-String no longer defined
----------
-
-String is replaced by std::string.
+* addRecord is new.
+* Doxygen updates and read-the-docs integration.
 
 
-toString replaced by stream I/O
----------
+## Release 4.5.0 (EPICS 7.0.3, Jul 2019)
 
-All uses of toString have been changed to use the steam I/O that pvDataCPP implements.
+* support is a new feature.
+* processRecord is new.
 
 
-union is a new basic type.
-------------
+## Release 4.4.2 (EPICS 7.0.2.2, Apr 2019)
 
-exampleDatabase now has example records for union and union array.
-There are records for regular union and for variant union.
+Formerly if a client makes a request for a subfield of a non structure field
+it resulted in a crash.
+
+Now if a request is made for a subfield of a non structure field
+
+1) if the field is not a union an exception is thrown which is passed to the client.
+2) if the field is a union
+    a) if more than one subfield is requested an exception is thrown 
+    b) if the subfield is the type for the current union the request succeeds
+    c) if type is not the same an exception is thrown
 
 
-copy 
-----
+## Release 4.4.1 (EPICS 7.0.2.1, Mar 2019)
+
+* Cleaned up some build warnings.
+* RTEMS test harness simplified.

-to use the new monitor and copy support from pvDataCPP.
+## Release 4.4 (EPICS 7.0.2, Dec 2018)
 
-monitorPlugin
--------------
+* pvCopy is now implemented in pvDatabaseCPP. The version in pvDatacPP can be deprecated.
+* plugin support is implemented.
 
-exampleDatabase now has a example plugin that implements onChange.

-The framework must be extended in order to create record instances.
-The minimum that an extenson must provide is a top level PVStructure and a process method

-<h2>Introduction</h2>
-<h3>Overview</h3>
-<p>This document descibes a C++ implementation of some of the components in pvIOCJava.
-It extracts the core components required to create a network accessible database of smart
-memory resident records.
-pvDatabaseCPP does not and will not implement any of the specialized support that pvIOCJava
-provides. Instead other projects will implement the specialized support.
-It is expected that many services will be created that do not require the full features provided
-by pvIOCJava. In the future pvIOCJava should be split into multiple projects with one of 
-them named pvDatabaseJava.
-</p>
-
-<p>A brief description of a pvDatase is that it is a network accessible set of smart memory resident
-records. Each record has data composed of a top level PVStructure. Each record has a name which is
-the channelName for pvAccess. A local Channel Provider implements the complete ChannelProvider and
-Channel interfaces as defined by pvAccess.
-This local provider is accessed by the remote pvAccess server.
-A record is smart because code can be attached to a record.</p>
-<p>This document describes components that provides the following features:
-<dl>
-  <dt>database<dt>
-     <dd>This encapsulates the concept of a database of memory resident smart records.
-        The two main components are:
-       <dl>
-          <dt>pvRecord</dt>
-             <dd>This encapsulates the concept of a smart record. It can be processed.
-             Changes to field values can be trapped. A record can be locked.</dd>
-          <dt>pvDatabase<dt>
-              <dd>This is a database of pvRecords.
-               Records can be added and removed from a database.</dd>
-       </dl>
-  <dt>localChannelProvider</dt>
-     <dd>This is a complete implementation of ChannelProvider and Channel as defined by pvAccess.
-       It is used by the server side of pvAccess to attach to pvRecords.
-       This component also includes the monitor and pvCopy components from pvIOCJava</dd>
-</dl>
-<p><b>database</b> does not itself implement pvRecord instances.
-Instead it provides a base classes that make it easy to create record instances.
-What does have to be implemented is a top
-level PVStructure and the following two methods:</p>
-<dl>
-  <dt>process</dt>
-    <dd>This is what makes a record <b>smart</b>.
-    What process does is up to the implementation except that it must decide if
-    it's execution model is synchronous or asynchronous.
-   Synchronous means that when process returns the processing is complete.
-   Asynchronous means that when process returns the processing is <b>not</b> complete.
-   Instead process invokes other threads that will complete the processing at a later time.</dd>
-  <dt>isSynchronous</dt>
-    <dd>Which execution model is being implemented.</dd>
-</dl>
-<h3>Example PVRecord Extension</h3>
-<p>Directory <b>example/record</b> has an example PVRecord implementation.
-It implements a counter.
-The top level structure is:</p>
-<pre>
-structure
-    long value
-</pre>
-<p><b>NOTE:</b> The example compiles but does not build because nothing
-is implemented.</p>
-
-<h4>exampleRecord.h</h4>
-<p>This is the class description.
-The example extends PVRecord.</p>
-<pre>
-class ExampleRecord :
-  public virtual PVRecord
-{
-public:
-    POINTER_DEFINITIONS(ExampleRecord);
-    static PVRecordPtr create(epics::pvData::String const &amp; recordName);
-    virtual ~ExampleRecord();
-    virtual bool isSynchronous();
-    virtual void process(
-        epics::pvDatabase::RecordProcessRequesterPtr const &amp;processRequester);
-private:
-    ExampleRecord(epics::pvData::String const &amp; recordName,
-        epics::pvData::PVStructurePtr const &amp; pvStructure,
-        epics::pvData::PVLongPtr const &amp;pvValue);
-    epics::pvData::PVLongPtr pvValue;
-};
-</pre>
-<p>where</p>
-<dl>
-  <dt>create<dt>
-    <dd>This is example specific. See the implemention for details.</dd>
-  <dt>~ExampleRecord<dt>
-    <dd>The destructor must be declared virtual.</dd>
-  <dt>isSynchronous<dt>
-    <dd>The implementation must say if process is synchronous or asynchronous.</dd>
-  <dt>process<dt>
-    <dd><b>The</b> implementation.</dd>
-  <dt>ExampleRecord<dt>
-    <dd>For the example this is private.</dd>
-<dl>
-
-<h4>exampleRecord.cpp</h4>
-<p>This is the class implementation.</p>
-<pre>
-ExampleRecord::~ExampleRecord(){}
-
-PVRecordPtr ExampleRecord::create(String const &amp; recordName)
-{
-    String properties;
-    PVStructurePtr pvStructure = getStandardPVField()-&gt;scalar(pvLong,properties);
-    PVLongPtr pvValue =  pvStructure-&gt;getLongField("value");
-    PVRecordPtr pvRecord(new ExampleRecord(recordName,pvStructure,pvValue));
-    return pvRecord;
-}
-
-ExampleRecord::ExampleRecord(
-    String const &amp; recordName,
-    PVStructurePtr const &amp; pvStructure,
-    PVLongPtr const &amp;pvValue)
-: PVRecord(recordName,pvStructure),
-  pvValue(pvValue)
-{}
-
-bool ExampleRecord::isSynchronous() {return true;}
-
-void ExampleRecord::process(
-    RecordProcessRequesterPtr const &amp;processRequester)
-{
-    pvValue-&gt;put(pvValue-&gt;get() + 1);
-    processRequester-&gt;recordProcessResult(Status::Ok);
-    processRequester-&gt;recordProcessComplete();
-}
-</pre>
-<p>where</p>
-<dl>
-  <dt>create<dt>
-    <dd>Creates a PVStructure with a single subfield named value.
-     It gets the interface to the value field.
-     It then creates an ExampleRecord and returns it.
-    </dd>
-  <dt>~ExampleRecord<dt>
-    <dd>Does not have to do anything because of shared pointers.</dd>
-  <dt>ExampleRecord<dt>
-    <dd>Calls the base class constructor and sets pvValue.</dd>
-  <dt>isSynchronous<dt>
-    <dd>The example is synchronous.</dd>
-  <dt>process<dt>
-    <dd>Gets the curent value, increments it, and puts the new value.
-     It than calls two processRequester callbacks.</dd>
-<dl>
-
-<h4>exampleRecordMain.cpp</h4>
-<p>This is a main for creating and running the example.</p>
-<pre>
-int main(int argc,char *argv[])
-{
-    String recordName("exampleRecord");
-    PVRecordPtr pvRecord = ExampleRecord::create(recordName);
-    PVDatabasePtr pvDatabase = PVDatabase::getMaster();
-    pvDatabase-&gt;addRecord(pvRecord);
-    cout &lt;&lt; recordName &lt;&lt; "\n";
-    string str;
-    while(true) {
-        cout &lt;&lt; "Type exit to stop: \n";
-        getline(cin,str);
-        if(str.compare("exit")==0) break;
-
-    }
-    return 0;
-}
-</pre>
-<p>The main program creates an example record and adds it to the database.
-It then runs until the process is stopped by typing <b>exit</b>.
-<p>Until the process is stopped,
-pvAccess clients can put and get the value field.
-For example</p>
-<pre>
-pvget exampleRecord
-pvput exampleRecord 5
-</pre>
-<p>Will both work.</p>
-<h3>Phased Development</h3>
-<p>This documentation describes the first phase of a phased implementation of pvDatabaseCPP:</pp>
-<dl>
-   <dt>pvRecord</d>
-      <dd>Wrapper on PVStructure that implements methods required by Local Channel Provider.</dd>
-   <dt>pvDatabase</d>
-      <dd>Database of PVRecords. Has methods find, add, and remove.</dd>
-   <dt>Local Channel Provider</dt>
-      <dd>These two features will be the first phase.
-        But only synchronous record processing will be supported.</dd>
-</dl>
-<p>Future phases of pvDatabaseCPP should include:</p>
-<dl>
-   <dt>Install</dt>
-      <dd>This provides on-line add and delete.</dd>
-   <dt>Field support</dt>
-      <dd>Add ability to optionally add support to fields.
-       In addition some of the basic support defined in pvIOCJava will also be implemented.</dd>
-   <dt>XML parser</dt>
-      <dd>This provides the ability to create record instances without writing any code.</dd>
-</dl>
-<p>The completion of each phase provides useful features that can be used without waiting for the
-completion of later phases.
-The rest of this  document discusses only the first phase.</p>
-<h3>Features Required for localChannelProvider</h3>
-<dl>
-   <dt>pvCopy</dt>
-      <dd>Creates a PVStructure that contains a copy of an arbitary
-          subset of the fields of another top level PVStructure.
-        It can copy data between the two and maintains a bitSet that show
-        which fields are changed.<dd>
-   <dt>monitor</dt>
-      <dd>This provides the ability to monitor changes to fields of a record.</dd>
-   <dt>PVRecord and PVDatabase</dt>
-      <dd>Defined below.</dd>
-   <dt>local ChannelProvider</dt>
-     <dd>This is the pvAccess package in pvIOCJava.
-       The localChannelProvider will access data from PVRecords.
-     It will implement all channel methods except channelRPC.</dd>
-</dl>
-<h3>Minumum Features Required for pvRecord</h3>
-<p>The first phase will only implement record processing, i. e.
-the process method has to do everything itself without any generic field support.
-This will be sufficient for starting to implement services.
-The following are the minimium features required</p>
-<dl>
-  <dt>PVDatabase</dt>
-      <dd>This holds a set of PVRecords. It has methods to find, add, and remove records.</dd>
-  <dt>PVRecord</dt>
-     <dd>This, and a set of related interfaces, provide the following:
-        <dl>
-           <dt>PVStructure</dt>
-             <dd>PVRecord is a wrapper on a top level pvStructure.</dd>
-           <dt>Record locking</dt>
-              <dd>A record can be locked and unlocked.
-              A record must be locked whenever data in the pvStructure is accessed.</dd>
-           <dt>Trapping data changes</dt>
-             <dd>A client can request to be notified when data in the pvStructure is modified.
-             It can do this on a field by field basis.</dd>
-        </dl>
-     </dd>
-</dl>
-<p>The following sections provide a first attempt to describe the classes required for the first
-phase.</p>
-<p>The last section gives a brief overview of the features provided by pvIOCJava.</p>
-
-<h2>database</h2>
-<p>The classes in <b>pvDatabase.h</b> implement a database of memory resident
-smart records. The next subsection has the definitions for all the classes
-defined in this header file.
-It describes the following classes:</p>
-<dl>
-   <dt>PVRecord</dt>
-     <dd>This provides the methods required by localChannelProvider to implement Channel.</dd>
-   <dt>PVRecordField</dt>
-   <dt>PVRecordStructure</dt>
-     <dd>These <b>wrap</b> PVField and PVStructure so that pvCopy and monitor can be implemented.</dd>
-   <dt>PVListener</dt>
-      <dd>This is implemented by anything that wants to trap calls to the PVRecord::message.</dd>
-   <dt>RecordProcessRequester</dt>
-      <dd>This is implemented by anything that calls PVRecord::queueProcessRequest.</dd>
-   <dt>PVRecordClient</dt>
-      <dd>This is called by anything that acceses PVRecord.</dd>
-   <dt>PVDatabase</dt>
-      <dd>This is a database of PVRecords.</dd>
-</dl>
-<p>Each class is described in a separate subsection.</p>

-<h2>Local Channel Provider</h2>
-<p>Not yet described.</p>
-<p>A brief description is that it must implement the following components of pvIOCJava:</p>
-<dl>
-   <dt>pvCopy</dt>
-   <dt>monitor</dt>
-   <dt>pvAccess</dt>
-      <dd>See the next section for a description</dd>
-</dl>
-<h2>Summary of Packages in pvIOCJAVA</h2>
-<p>The following are the direct sub packages of <b>pvIOCJava/src/org/epics/pvioc</b>:</p>
-<dl>
-   <dt>pvCopy</dt>
-     <dd>This provides a copy of an arbitrary subset of the fields in a PVRecord.
-      It also provides the ability to detect and report changes to fields.
-      It is required for pvAccess.</dd>
-   <dt>monitor</dt>
-     <dd>This provides the ability to monitor changes to a PVRecord. It is required for pvAccess monitors.</dd>
-   <dt>pvAccess</dt>
-      <dd>The local implementation of Channel Provider and Channel.
-       It is accessed by the remote pvAccess server and can also be accessed by code in the same IOC.</dd>
-   <dt>database</dt>
-     <dd>This defines and implements PVRecord, PVDatabase , and PVListener.
-      It supports the basic feature required the implement a local Channel Provider.</dd>
-   <dt>support</dt>
-       <dd>This provides the ability to optionally attach code to any field of a pvRecord.
-        It and several sub packages provide a set of standard support modules.</dd>
-   <dt>install</dt>
-      <dd>This provides the ability to dynamically initialize and add new PVRecords. It also provides
-      the ability to dynamicall delete PVRecords.</d> 
-   <dt>xml</dt>
-      <dd>This provides the ability to configure record instances without writing code.</dd>
-   <dt>util</dt>
-     <dd>This is misnamed since it is code related to scanning.</dd>
-   <dt>pdrv</dt>
-      <dd>This is portDriver, which is a proposed sucessor to the asynManager component of asynDriver.</dd>
-   <dt>swtshell</dt>
-      <dd>This is shell that is can either run under the same process as a JavaIOC or as a remote shell.
-       It is like a version of probe but for pvData/pvAccess.
-      Almost all of it's features work in either local or remote mode.
-      With a little more work all or it's features could work remotely.
-      This should be done and then only remote mode should be supported.
-      It can then be rewritten in a completely different language and using a complely different GUI
-      framework.
-     </dd>
-   <dt>caV3</dt>
-      <dd>This has two components:
-       <dl>
-        <dt>ClientFactory</dt>
-          <dd>This is a small wrapper on top of the caV3 client support implemented by pvAccess.
-           It allows code in the pvIOC to access V3Records via pvAccess.</dd>
-        <dt>ServerFactory</dt>
-          <dd>This is a caV3 server that allows a caV3 client to access a PVRecord.
-          The Java implementation uses CAJ, which does most of the work.
-          For now it will not be discussed in this document.</dd>
-       </dl>
-     </dd>
-   <dt>v3a</dt>
-     <dd>I do not know what this is.</dd>
-</dl>
-<p>In addition there is one class file <b>JavaIOC.java</b>.
-This is starting a IOC instance.
-This is not required for pvIOCCPP which is either a main or runs as part of a V3 IOC.</p>

-
-<p>This document describes pvDatabaseCPP,
-which is a framework for implementing a network accessable database of smart memory resident
-records. Network access is via pvAccess. The data in each record is a top level PVStructure as defined by
-pvData. The framework includes a complete implementation of ChannelProvider as defined by pvAccess.
-The framework must be extended in order to create record instances.
-The minimum that an extenson must provide is a top level PVStructure and a process method
-but the framework provides for complex extensions.</p>

-<h2>Introduction</h2>
-<h3>Overview</h3>
-<p>This document descibes a C++ implementation of some of the components in pvIOCJava.
-It extracts the core components required to create a network accessible database of smart
-memory resident records.
-pvDatabaseCPP does not and will not implement any of the specialized support that pvIOCJava
-provides. Instead other projects will implement the specialized support.
-It is expected that many services will be created that do not require the full features provided
-by pvIOCJava. In the future pvIOCJava should be split into multiple projects with one of 
-them named pvDatabaseJava.
-</p>
-
-<p>A brief description of a pvDatase is that it is a network accessible set of smart memory resident
-records. Each record has data composed of a top level PVStructure. Each record has a name which is
-the channelName for pvAccess. A local Channel Provider implements the complete ChannelProvider and
-Channel interfaces as defined by pvAccess.
-This local provider is accessed by the remote pvAccess server.
-A record is smart because code can be attached to a record.</p>
-<p>This document describes components that provides the following features:
-<dl>
-  <dt>database<dt>
-     <dd>This encapsulates the concept of a database of memory resident smart records.
-        The two main components are:
-       <dl>
-          <dt>pvRecord</dt>
-             <dd>This encapsulates the concept of a smart record. It can be processed.
-             Changes to field values can be trapped. A record can be locked.</dd>
-          <dt>pvDatabase<dt>
-              <dd>This is a database of pvRecords.
-               Records can be added and removed from a database.</dd>
-       </dl>
-  <dt>localChannelProvider</dt>
-     <dd>This is a complete implementation of ChannelProvider and Channel as defined by pvAccess.
-       It is used by the server side of pvAccess to attach to pvRecords.
-       This component also includes the monitor and pvCopy components from pvIOCJava</dd>
-</dl>
-<p><b>database</b> does not itself implement pvRecord instances.
-Instead it provides a base classes that make it easy to create record instances.
-What does have to be implemented is a top
-level PVStructure and the following two methods:</p>
-<dl>
-  <dt>process</dt>
-    <dd>This is what makes a record <b>smart</b>.
-    What process does is up to the implementation except that it must decide if
-    it's execution model is synchronous or asynchronous.
-   Synchronous means that when process returns the processing is complete.
-   Asynchronous means that when process returns the processing is <b>not</b> complete.
-   Instead process invokes other threads that will complete the processing at a later time.</dd>
-  <dt>isSynchronous</dt>
-    <dd>Which execution model is being implemented.</dd>
-</dl>
-<h3>Example PVRecord Extension</h3>
-<p>Directory <b>example/record</b> has an example PVRecord implementation.
-It implements a counter.
-The top level structure is:</p>
-<pre>
-structure
-    long value
-</pre>
-<p><b>NOTE:</b> The example compiles but does not build because nothing
-is implemented.</p>
-
-<h4>exampleRecord.h</h4>
-<p>This is the class description.
-The example extends PVRecord.</p>

-<h3>Phased Development</h3>
-<p>This documentation describes the first phase of a phased implementation of pvDatabaseCPP:</pp>
-<dl>
-   <dt>pvRecord</d>
-      <dd>Wrapper on PVStructure that implements methods required by Local Channel Provider.</dd>
-   <dt>pvDatabase</d>
-      <dd>Database of PVRecords. Has methods find, add, and remove.</dd>
-   <dt>Local Channel Provider</dt>
-      <dd>These two features will be the first phase.
-        But only synchronous record processing will be supported.</dd>
-</dl>
-<p>Future phases of pvDatabaseCPP should include:</p>
-<dl>
-   <dt>Install</dt>
-      <dd>This provides on-line add and delete.</dd>
-   <dt>Field support</dt>
-      <dd>Add ability to optionally add support to fields.
-       In addition some of the basic support defined in pvIOCJava will also be implemented.</dd>
-   <dt>XML parser</dt>
-      <dd>This provides the ability to create record instances without writing any code.</dd>
-</dl>
-<p>The completion of each phase provides useful features that can be used without waiting for the
-completion of later phases.
-The rest of this  document discusses only the first phase.</p>
-<h3>Features Required for localChannelProvider</h3>
-<dl>
-   <dt>pvCopy</dt>
-      <dd>Creates a PVStructure that contains a copy of an arbitary
-          subset of the fields of another top level PVStructure.
-        It can copy data between the two and maintains a bitSet that show
-        which fields are changed.<dd>
-   <dt>monitor</dt>
-      <dd>This provides the ability to monitor changes to fields of a record.</dd>
-   <dt>PVRecord and PVDatabase</dt>
-      <dd>Defined below.</dd>
-   <dt>local ChannelProvider</dt>
-     <dd>This is the pvAccess package in pvIOCJava.
-       The localChannelProvider will access data from PVRecords.
-     It will implement all channel methods except channelRPC.</dd>
-</dl>
-<h3>Minumum Features Required for pvRecord</h3>
-<p>The first phase will only implement record processing, i. e.
-the process method has to do everything itself without any generic field support.
-This will be sufficient for starting to implement services.
-The following are the minimium features required</p>
-<dl>
-  <dt>PVDatabase</dt>
-      <dd>This holds a set of PVRecords. It has methods to find, add, and remove records.</dd>
-  <dt>PVRecord</dt>
-     <dd>This, and a set of related interfaces, provide the following:
-        <dl>
-           <dt>PVStructure</dt>
-             <dd>PVRecord is a wrapper on a top level pvStructure.</dd>
-           <dt>Record locking</dt>
-              <dd>A record can be locked and unlocked.
-              A record must be locked whenever data in the pvStructure is accessed.</dd>
-           <dt>Trapping data changes</dt>
-             <dd>A client can request to be notified when data in the pvStructure is modified.
-             It can do this on a field by field basis.</dd>
-        </dl>
-     </dd>
-</dl>
-<p>The following sections provide a first attempt to describe the classes required for the first
-phase.</p>
-<p>The last section gives a brief overview of the features provided by pvIOCJava.</p>
-
-<h2>database</h2>
-<p>The classes in <b>pvDatabase.h</b> implement a database of memory resident
-smart records.
-It describes the following classes:</p>
-<dl>
-   <dt>PVRecord</dt>
-     <dd>This provides the methods required by localChannelProvider to implement Channel.</dd>
-   <dt>PVRecordField</dt>
-   <dt>PVRecordStructure</dt>
-     <dd>These <b>wrap</b> PVField and PVStructure so that pvCopy and monitor
-        can be implemented.</dd>
-   <dt>PVRecordClient</dt>
-      <dd>This is called by anything that acceses PVRecord.</dd>
-   <dt>PVListener</dt>
-      <dd>This is implemented by anything that wants to trap calls to the PVRecord::message.</dd>
-   <dt>RecordProcessRequester</dt>
-      <dd>This is implemented by anything that calls PVRecord::queueProcessRequest.</dd>
-   <dt>RecordPutRequester</dt>
-      <dd>This is implemented by anything that calls PVRecord::queuePutRequest.</dd>
-   <dt>PVDatabase</dt>
-      <dd>This is a database of PVRecords.</dd>
-</dl>
-<p>Each class is described in a separate subsection.</p>

-<p><b>NOTES:</b>
-<ul>
-    <li>This section uses the name record instead of "an instance of PVRecord".</li>
-    <li>Most clients will access a record via the local channel provider,
-       i. e. via pvAccess.
-        Thus this section is mainly of interest to 
-      the local channel provider and record implementers.</li>

-<p>The methods are:</h3>
-<dl>
-   <dt>PVRecord</dt>
-     <dd>The constructor. It requires a recordName and a top level PVStructure.</dd>
-   <dt>~PVRecord</dt>
-     <dd>The destructor which must be virtual. A derived class must also have
-       a virtual destructor.</dd>
-   <dt>process</dt>
-     <dd>Pure virtual method.

-     <p>A client <b>must</b> only call this method when

-      of a <b>queueProcessRequest</b>.
-     A client can either call lock before calling processs
-      or let process lock the record.
-     If a client wants to put data into the record it should lock, put, and then call
-     process.</p>
-     <p>If the record is synchronous, process will return only when all processing
-     is complete. If the record is asynchronous then process arranges for some
-     other thread to do the processing and returns.</p>
-    <p>When processing is done the record calls two client callbacks:</p>

-<h2>Local Channel Provider</h2>
-<p>Not yet described.</p>
-<p>A brief description is that it must implement the following components of pvIOCJava:</p>
-<dl>
-   <dt>pvCopy</dt>
-   <dt>monitor</dt>
-   <dt>pvAccess</dt>
-      <dd>See the next section for a description</dd>
-</dl>
-<h2>Summary of Packages in pvIOCJAVA</h2>
-<p>The following are the direct sub packages of <b>pvIOCJava/src/org/epics/pvioc</b>:</p>
-<dl>
-   <dt>pvCopy</dt>
-     <dd>This provides a copy of an arbitrary subset of the fields in a PVRecord.
-      It also provides the ability to detect and report changes to fields.
-      It is required for pvAccess.</dd>
-   <dt>monitor</dt>
-     <dd>This provides the ability to monitor changes to a PVRecord. It is required for pvAccess monitors.</dd>
-   <dt>pvAccess</dt>
-      <dd>The local implementation of Channel Provider and Channel.
-       It is accessed by the remote pvAccess server and can also be accessed by code in the same IOC.</dd>
-   <dt>database</dt>
-     <dd>This defines and implements PVRecord, PVDatabase , and PVListener.
-      It supports the basic feature required the implement a local Channel Provider.</dd>
-   <dt>support</dt>
-       <dd>This provides the ability to optionally attach code to any field of a pvRecord.
-        It and several sub packages provide a set of standard support modules.</dd>
-   <dt>install</dt>
-      <dd>This provides the ability to dynamically initialize and add new PVRecords. It also provides
-      the ability to dynamicall delete PVRecords.</d> 
-   <dt>xml</dt>
-      <dd>This provides the ability to configure record instances without writing code.</dd>
-   <dt>util</dt>
-     <dd>This is misnamed since it is code related to scanning.</dd>
-   <dt>pdrv</dt>
-      <dd>This is portDriver, which is a proposed sucessor to the asynManager component of asynDriver.</dd>
-   <dt>swtshell</dt>
-      <dd>This is shell that is can either run under the same process as a JavaIOC or as a remote shell.
-       It is like a version of probe but for pvData/pvAccess.
-      Almost all of it's features work in either local or remote mode.
-      With a little more work all or it's features could work remotely.
-      This should be done and then only remote mode should be supported.
-      It can then be rewritten in a completely different language and using a complely different GUI
-      framework.
-     </dd>
-   <dt>caV3</dt>
-      <dd>This has two components:
-       <dl>
-        <dt>ClientFactory</dt>
-          <dd>This is a small wrapper on top of the caV3 client support implemented by pvAccess.
-           It allows code in the pvIOC to access V3Records via pvAccess.</dd>
-        <dt>ServerFactory</dt>
-          <dd>This is a caV3 server that allows a caV3 client to access a PVRecord.
-          The Java implementation uses CAJ, which does most of the work.
-          For now it will not be discussed in this document.</dd>
-       </dl>
-     </dd>
-   <dt>v3a</dt>
-     <dd>I do not know what this is.</dd>
-</dl>
-<p>In addition there is one class file <b>JavaIOC.java</b>.
-This is starting a IOC instance.
-This is not required for pvIOCCPP which is either a main or runs as part of a V3 IOC.</p>

-<h2>Introduction</h2>
-<h3>Overview</h3>
-<p>A brief description of a pvDatabase is that it is a set of network accessible, smart,
-memory resident records.
-Each record has data composed of a top level PVStructure.
-Each record has a name which is the channelName for pvAccess.
-A local Channel Provider implements the complete ChannelProvider and
-Channel interfaces as defined by pvAccess.
-The local provider provides access to the records in the pvDatabase.
-This local provider is accessed by the remote pvAccess server.
-A record is smart because code can be attached to a record, which is accessed via a method named process.</p>
-
-<p>This document describes components that provides the following features:
-<dl>
-  <dt>database<dt>
-     <dd>This encapsulates the concept of a database of memory resident smart records.
-        The two main components are:
-       <dl>
-          <dt>pvRecord</dt>
-             <dd>This encapsulates the concept of a smart record. It can be processed.
-             Changes to field values can be trapped. A record can be locked.</dd>
-          <dt>pvDatabase<dt>
-              <dd>This is a database of pvRecords.
-               Records can be added and removed from a database.</dd>
-       </dl>
-  <dt>pvAccess</dt>
-     <dd>This is a complete implementation of ChannelProvider and Channel
-       as defined by pvAccess.
-       It is used by the server side of pvAccess to attach to pvRecords.
-       This component also includes the monitor and pvCopy components from pvIOCJava</dd>
-</dl>
-<p>database provides base classes that make it easy to create record instances.
-The code attached to each record must create the top
-level PVStructure and the following two methods:</p>
-<dl>
-  <dt>init</dt>
-    <dd>This is a method for initializing the support.
-     It returns true if successful and false otherwise.
-    </dd>
-  <dt>process</dt>
-    <dd>This is what makes a record smart.
-     </dd>
-</dl>
-<h3>Relationship with pvIOCJava.</h3>
-<p>This document descibes a C++ implementation of some of the components in pvIOCJava,
-which also implements a pvDatabase.
-PVDatabaseCPP extracts the core components required to create a network accessible database of smart
-memory resident records.
-pvDatabaseCPP does not implement any of the specialized support that pvIOCJava
-provides.
-It is expected that many services will be created that do not require the full features provided
-by pvIOCJava. In the future pvIOCJava should be split into multiple projects with one of 
-them named pvDatabaseJava.</p>
-<p>Similar to epics base, pvIOCJava implements the concept of synchronous and asynchronous record processing.
-For pvDatabaseCPP the process method is allowed to block.
-Until a need is demonstrated this will remain true.
-The main user of a pvDatabase is pvAccess, and in particular, remote pvAccess.
-The server side of remote pvAccess creates two threads for each client and always accesses
-a record via these threads.
-It is expected that these threads will be sufficient to efficently handle all channel methods except
-channelRPC. For channelRPC pvAccess provides (or will provide) a thread pool for channelRPC requests.
-If, in the future, a scanning facility is provided by pvDatabaseCPP or some other facility,
-then the scanning facility will have to provide some way of handling process requests that block.</p>
-</p>
-<h3>Example PVRecord Extension</h3>
-<p>The example implements a simple counter.
-The example can be run on linux as follows:</p>
-<pre>
-mrk&gt; pwd
-/home/hg/pvDatabaseCPP
-mrk&gt; bin/linux-x86_64/exampleCounter 
-
-</pre>
-<p>The example consists of two components:</p>
-<dl>
-   <dt>ExampleCounter.h</dt>
-     <dd>The source code for the counter.</dd>
-   <dt>exampleCounterMain.cpp</dt>
-     <dd>A main program that runs the example so that it can be accessed
-       by a pvAccess client.</dd>
-</dl>
-<h4>ExampleCounter.h</h4>
-<p>The example resides in src/database.
-The complete implementation is in the header file.
-A serious implementation would probably break the code into two files:
-1) a header, and 2) the implementation. The description consists of</p>
-<pre>
-class ExampleCounter;
-typedef std::tr1::shared_ptr&lt;ExampleCounter&gt; ExampleCounterPtr;
-
-class ExampleCounter :
-    public PVRecord
-{
-public:
-    POINTER_DEFINITIONS(ExampleCounter);
-    static ExampleCounterPtr create(
-        epics::pvData::String const &amp; recordName);
-    virtual ~ExampleCounter();
-    virtual void destroy();
-    virtual bool init();
-    virtual void process();
-private:
-    ExampleCounter(epics::pvData::String const &amp; recordName,
-        epics::pvData::PVStructurePtr const &amp; pvStructure);
-    epics::pvData::PVLongPtr pvValue;
-    epics::pvData::PVTimeStamp pvTimeStamp;
-    epics::pvData::TimeStamp timeStamp;
-};
-</pre>
-<p>where</p>
-<dl>
-  <dt>create<dt>
-    <dd>This is example specific but each support could provide
-     a similar static method.
-    </dd>
-  <dt>~ExampleCounter<dt>
-    <dd>The destructor must be declared virtual.</dd>
-  <dt><destroy</dt>
-     <dd>Called when the record is being destroyed.
-      This must call the base class destroy method.
-  <dt>init<dt>
-    <dd>A method to initialize the support. It returns true
-    if initialization is successful and false if not.
-    NOTE that this is a virtual method of PVRecord itself.</dd>
-  <dt>process<dt>
-    <dd>
-     This again is a virtual method of PVRecord.
-    </dd>
-  <dt>ExampleCounter<dt>
-    <dd>For the example this is private.</dd>
-  <dt>pvValue</dt>
-    <dd>This is the field of the top level structure that process
-    accesses.
-    </dd>
-<dl>
-<p>The implementation of create method is:</p>
-<pre>
-ExampleCounterPtr ExampleCounter::create(
-    epics::pvData::String const &amp; recordName)
-{
-    epics::pvData::PVStructurePtr pvStructure =
-       epics::pvData::getStandardPVField()-&gt;scalar(
-           epics::pvData::pvDouble,"timeStamp,alarm"");
-    ExampleCounterPtr pvRecord(
-        new ExampleCounter(recordName,pvStructure));
-    if(!pvRecord-&gt;init()) pvRecord.reset();
-    return pvRecord;
-}
-</pre>
-This:
-<ul>
-   <li>Creates the top level structure.</li>
-   <li>Creates a ExampleCounterPtr via the constructor.</li>
-   <li>Calls init and if it fails resets the shared pointer.</li>
-   <li>Returns the shared pointer to the newly created record.</li>
-</ul>
-<p>The private constructor method is:</p>
-<pre>
-ExampleCounter::ExampleCounter(
-    epics::pvData::String const &amp; recordName,
-    epics::pvData::PVStructurePtr const &amp; pvStructure)
-: PVRecord(recordName,pvStructure)
-{
-    pvTimeStamp.attach(pvStructure->getSubField("timeStamp"));
-}
-</pre>
-The example is very simple. It just calls the base class constructor.
-<p>The destructor and destroy methods are:</p>
-<pre>
-ExampleCounter::~ExampleCounter()
-{
-    destroy();
-}
-
-void ExampleCounter::destroy()
-{
-    PVRecord::destroy();
-}
-</pre>
-The destructor just calls destroy.
-The destroy method, which is virtual,  just calls the destroy method of the base class.
-A more complicated example can clean up any resources it used but must call the base
-class destroy method.
-<p>The implementation of init is:</p>
-<pre>
-bool ExampleCounter::init()
-{
-
-    initPVRecord();
-    epics::pvData::PVFieldPtr pvField;
-    pvValue = getPVStructure()-&gt;getLongField("value");
-    if(pvValue.get()==NULL) return false;
-    return true;
-}
-</pre>
-This:
-<ul>
-   <li>Calls initRecord which is implemented by the base class.
-    It MUST be called.</li>
-   <li>Calls getLongField to get the interface to the value field,
-    which must be a scalar with type long.</li>
-   <li>If a long value field was not found it returns false.</li>
-   <li>Returns true</li>
-</ul>
-<p>The implementation of process is:</p>
-<pre>
-void ExampleCounter::process()
-{
-    pvValue-&gt;put(pvValue-&gt;get() + 1.0);
-    timeStamp.getCurrent();
-    pvTimeStamp.set(timeStamp);
-}
-</pre>
-It adds 1.0 to the current value.
-It then sets the timeStamp to the current time.
-<h4>exampleCounterMain.cpp</h4>
-<p>This is in test/server.
-The main program is:</p>
-<pre>
-int main(int argc,char *argv[])
-{
-    PVDatabasePtr master = PVDatabase::getMaster();
-    ChannelProviderLocalPtr channelProvider = ChannelProviderLocal::create();
-    String recordName("exampleCounter");
-    PVRecordPtr pvRecord = ExampleCounter::create(recordName);
-    bool result = master-&gt;addRecord(pvRecord);
-    cout &lt;&lt; "result of addRecord " &lt;&lt; recordName &lt;&lt; " " &lt;&lt; result &lt;&lt; endl;
-    pvRecord.reset();
-    cout &lt;&lt; "exampleServer\n";
-    string str;
-    while(true) {
-        cout &lt;&lt; "Type exit to stop: \n";
-        getline(cin,str);
-        if(str.compare("exit")==0) break;
-
-    }
-    return 0;
-}
-</pre>
-This:
-<ul>
-  <li>Gets a pointer to the master database.</li>
-  <li>Creates the local Channel Provider. This starts the pvAccess server.</li>
-  <li>Creates a ExampleCounter record with the name exampleCounter
-  </li>
-   <li>Prints exampleCounter on standard out.</li>
-  <li>Runs forever until the user types exit on standard in.</li>
-</ul>
-<h3>Phased Development</h3>
-<p>This documentation describes the first phase of a phased implementation of pvDatabaseCPP:</pp>
-<dl>
-   <dt>pvRecord</d>
-      <dd>Wrapper on PVStructure that implements methods required by Local Channel Provider.</dd>
-   <dt>pvDatabase</d>
-      <dd>Database of PVRecords. Has methods find, add, and remove.</dd>
-   <dt>Local Channel Provider</dt>
-      <dd>Complete implementation of ChannelProvider and Channel.
-      This means that pvCopy and monitor are also implemented.</dd>
-</dl>
-<p>Future phases of pvDatabaseCPP might include:</p>
-<dl>
-   <dt>Install</dt>
-      <dd>This provides complete support for on-line add and delete
-       of sets of records.
-      With the first phase each "service" is responsible for it's own implementation.
-      All that is provided is addRecord and removeRecord.
-      </dd>
-   <dt>Field support</dt>
-      <dd>Add the ability to optionally add support to fields.
-       In addition some of the basic support defined in pvIOCJava could also be implemented.</dd>
-   <dt>XML parser</dt>
-      <dd>This provides the ability to create record instances without writing any code.</dd>
-</dl>
-<p>The completion of each phase provides useful features that can be used without waiting for the
-completion of later phases.
-The rest of this  document discusses only the first phase.</p>
-<h3>Features Required for localChannelProvider</h3>
-<dl>
-   <dt>pvCopy</dt>
-      <dd>Creates a PVStructure that contains a copy of an arbitary
-          subset of the fields of another top level PVStructure.
-        It can copy data between the two and maintains a bitSet that show
-        which fields are changed.<dd>
-   <dt>monitor</dt>
-      <dd>This provides the ability to monitor changes to fields of a record.</dd>
-   <dt>PVRecord and PVDatabase</dt>
-      <dd>Defined below.</dd>
-   <dt>The localChannelProvider itself</dt>
-     <dd>This is the pvAccess package in pvIOCJava.
-       The localChannelProvider will access data from PVRecords.
-     It will implement all channel methods.</dd>
-</dl>
-<h3>Minumum Features Required for pvRecord</h3>
-<p>The first phase will only implement record processing, i. e.
-the process method has to do everything itself without any generic field support.
-This will be sufficient for starting to implement services.
-The following are the minimium features required</p>
-<dl>
-  <dt>PVDatabase</dt>
-      <dd>This holds a set of PVRecords. It has methods to find, add, and remove records.</dd>
-  <dt>PVRecord</dt>
-     <dd>This, and a set of related interfaces, provides the following:
-        <dl>
-           <dt>Access to top level PVStructure</dt>
-             <dd>PVRecord is a wrapper on a top level pvStructure.</dd>
-           <dt>Record locking</dt>
-              <dd>A record can be locked and unlocked.
-              A record must be locked whenever data in the pvStructure is accessed.</dd>
-           <dt>Trapping data changes</dt>
-             <dd>A client can request to be notified when data in the pvStructure is modified.
-             It can do this on a field by field basis.</dd>
-        </dl>
-     </dd>
-</dl>
-<p>The following sections describes the classes required for the first phase.</p>
-
-<h2>database</h2>
-<p>This directory has the following files:</p>
-<dl>
-   <dt>pvDatabase.h</dt>
-     <dd>
-      This is what is described in this section.
-     </dd>
-   <dt>pvDatabase.cpp</dt>
-     <dd>
-       The implementation of PVDatabase.
-     </dd>
-   <dt>pvRecord.cpp</dt>
-     <dd>
-       The implementation of the base class for PVREcord.
-       It can also implement record instances with a process
-       method does nothing.
-       This can be used to create a "dumb" record where all changes are
-       done by clients.
-       The complete implementation is provided in the header file.
-       Thus code will be generated only if other code includes the
-        header file and creates a record instance.
-     </dd>
-   <dt>exampleCounter.h</dt>
-     <dd>
-       This was described in the introduction.
-     </dd>
-   <dt>powerSupplyRecordTest.h</dt>
-     <dd>
-       This provides code that simulates a power supply.
-       It computes the current from the voltage and power.
-       It is used for testing.
-       The complete implementation is provided in the header file.
-       Thus code will be generated only if other code includes the
-        header file and creates a record instance.
-     </dd>
-</dl>
-<p>The classes in pvDatabase.h describe a database of memory resident
-smart records.
-It describes the following classes:</p>
-<dl>
-   <dt>PVRecord</dt>
-     <dd>This provides the methods required by localChannelProvider to implement Channel.</dd>
-   <dt>PVRecordField</dt>
-   <dt>PVRecordStructure</dt>
-     <dd>These wrap PVField and PVStructure so that pvCopy and monitor
-        can be implemented.</dd>
-   <dt>PVRecordClient</dt>
-      <dd>This is called by anything that acceses PVRecord.</dd>
-   <dt>PVListener</dt>
-      <dd>This is implemented by anything that wants to trap calls to PVRecord::message.</dd>
-   <dt>PVDatabase</dt>
-      <dd>This is a database of PVRecords.</dd>
-</dl>
-<p>Each class is described in a separate subsection.</p>

-<h3>class PVRecord</h3>
-<p>NOTES:
-<ul>
-    <li>This section uses the name record instead of "an instance of PVRecord".</li>
-    <li>Most clients will access a record via the local channel provider,
-       i. e. via pvAccess.
-        Thus this section is mainly of interest to 
-      the local channel provider and record implementers.</li>
-    <li>Most readers will not care about most of the PVRecord methods.
-       Most of the methods are used by the pvAccess code.
-      Service implementers will mostly be interested in methods init and process.
-      These are described first.

-
-<p>This document describes pvDatabaseCPP,
-which is a framework for implementing a network accessable database of smart memory resident
-records. Network access is via pvAccess. The data in each record is a top level PVStructure as defined by
-pvData. The framework includes a complete implementation of ChannelProvider as defined by pvAccess.
-The framework can be extended in order to create record instances that implements services.
-The minimum that an extenson must provide is a top level PVStructure and a process method.

-<h2>Introduction</h2>
-<h3>Overview</h3>
-<p>A brief description of a pvDatabase is that it is a set of network accessible, smart,
-memory resident records.
-Each record has data composed of a top level PVStructure.
-Each record has a name which is the channelName for pvAccess.
-A local Channel Provider implements the complete ChannelProvider and
-Channel interfaces as defined by pvAccess.
-The local provider provides access to the records in the pvDatabase.
-This local provider is accessed by the remote pvAccess server.
-A record is smart because code can be attached to a record, which is accessed via a method named process.</p>
-
-<p>This document describes components that provides the following features:
-<dl>
-  <dt>database<dt>
-     <dd>This encapsulates the concept of a database of memory resident smart records.
-        The two main components are:
-       <dl>
-          <dt>pvRecord</dt>
-             <dd>This encapsulates the concept of a smart record. It can be processed.
-             Changes to field values can be trapped. A record can be locked.</dd>
-          <dt>pvDatabase<dt>
-              <dd>This is a database of pvRecords.
-               Records can be added and removed from a database.</dd>
-       </dl>
-  <dt>pvAccess</dt>
-     <dd>This is a complete implementation of ChannelProvider and Channel
-       as defined by pvAccess.
-       It is used by the server side of pvAccess to attach to pvRecords.
-       This component also includes the monitor and pvCopy components from pvIOCJava</dd>
-</dl>
-<p>database provides base classes that make it easy to create record instances.
-The code attached to each record must create the top
-level PVStructure and the following two methods:</p>
-<dl>
-  <dt>init</dt>
-    <dd>This is a method for initializing the support.
-     It returns true if successful and false otherwise.
-    </dd>
-  <dt>process</dt>
-    <dd>This is what makes a record smart.
-     </dd>
-</dl>
-<h3>Relationship with pvIOCJava.</h3>
-<p>This document descibes a C++ implementation of some of the components in pvIOCJava,
-which also implements a pvDatabase.
-PVDatabaseCPP extracts the core components required to create a network accessible database of smart
-memory resident records.
-pvDatabaseCPP does not implement any of the specialized support that pvIOCJava
-provides.
-It is expected that many services will be created that do not require the full features provided
-by pvIOCJava. In the future pvIOCJava should be split into multiple projects with one of 
-them named pvDatabaseJava.</p>
-<p>Similar to epics base, pvIOCJava implements the concept of synchronous and asynchronous record processing.
-For pvDatabaseCPP the process method is allowed to block.
-Until a need is demonstrated this will remain true.
-The main user of a pvDatabase is pvAccess, and in particular, remote pvAccess.
-The server side of remote pvAccess creates two threads for each client and always accesses
-a record via these threads.
-It is expected that these threads will be sufficient to efficently handle all channel methods except
-channelRPC. For channelRPC pvAccess provides (or will provide) a thread pool for channelRPC requests.
-If, in the future, a scanning facility is provided by pvDatabaseCPP or some other facility,
-then the scanning facility will have to provide some way of handling process requests that block.</p>
-</p>
-<h3>Example PVRecord Extension</h3>
-<p>The example implements a simple counter.
-The example can be run on linux as follows:</p>
-<pre>
-mrk&gt; pwd
-/home/hg/pvDatabaseCPP
-mrk&gt; bin/linux-x86_64/exampleCounter 
-
-</pre>
-<p>The example consists of two components:</p>
-<dl>
-   <dt>ExampleCounter.h</dt>
-     <dd>The source code for the counter.</dd>
-   <dt>exampleCounterMain.cpp</dt>
-     <dd>A main program that runs the example so that it can be accessed
-       by a pvAccess client.</dd>
-</dl>
-<h4>ExampleCounter.h</h4>
-<p>The example resides in src/database.
-The complete implementation is in the header file.
-A serious implementation would probably break the code into two files:
-1) a header, and 2) the implementation. The description consists of</p>
-<pre>
-class ExampleCounter;
-typedef std::tr1::shared_ptr&lt;ExampleCounter&gt; ExampleCounterPtr;
-
-class ExampleCounter :
-    public PVRecord
-{
-public:
-    POINTER_DEFINITIONS(ExampleCounter);
-    static ExampleCounterPtr create(
-        epics::pvData::String const &amp; recordName);
-    virtual ~ExampleCounter();
-    virtual void destroy();
-    virtual bool init();
-    virtual void process();
-private:
-    ExampleCounter(epics::pvData::String const &amp; recordName,
-        epics::pvData::PVStructurePtr const &amp; pvStructure);
-    epics::pvData::PVLongPtr pvValue;
-    epics::pvData::PVTimeStamp pvTimeStamp;
-    epics::pvData::TimeStamp timeStamp;
-};
-</pre>
-<p>where</p>
-<dl>
-  <dt>create<dt>
-    <dd>This is example specific but each support could provide
-     a similar static method.
-    </dd>
-  <dt>~ExampleCounter<dt>
-    <dd>The destructor must be declared virtual.</dd>
-  <dt><destroy</dt>
-     <dd>Called when the record is being destroyed.
-      This must call the base class destroy method.
-  <dt>init<dt>
-    <dd>A method to initialize the support. It returns true
-    if initialization is successful and false if not.
-    NOTE that this is a virtual method of PVRecord itself.</dd>
-  <dt>process<dt>
-    <dd>
-     This again is a virtual method of PVRecord.
-    </dd>
-  <dt>ExampleCounter<dt>
-    <dd>For the example this is private.</dd>
-  <dt>pvValue</dt>
-    <dd>This is the field of the top level structure that process
-    accesses.
-    </dd>
-<dl>
-<p>The implementation of create method is:</p>
-<pre>
-ExampleCounterPtr ExampleCounter::create(
-    epics::pvData::String const &amp; recordName)
-{
-    epics::pvData::PVStructurePtr pvStructure =
-       epics::pvData::getStandardPVField()-&gt;scalar(
-           epics::pvData::pvDouble,"timeStamp,alarm"");
-    ExampleCounterPtr pvRecord(
-        new ExampleCounter(recordName,pvStructure));
-    if(!pvRecord-&gt;init()) pvRecord.reset();
-    return pvRecord;
-}
-</pre>
-This:
-<ul>
-   <li>Creates the top level structure.</li>
-   <li>Creates a ExampleCounterPtr via the constructor.</li>
-   <li>Calls init and if it fails resets the shared pointer.</li>
-   <li>Returns the shared pointer to the newly created record.</li>
-</ul>
-<p>The private constructor method is:</p>
-<pre>
-ExampleCounter::ExampleCounter(
-    epics::pvData::String const &amp; recordName,
-    epics::pvData::PVStructurePtr const &amp; pvStructure)
-: PVRecord(recordName,pvStructure)
-{
-    pvTimeStamp.attach(pvStructure->getSubField("timeStamp"));
-}
-</pre>
-The example is very simple. It just calls the base class constructor.
-<p>The destructor and destroy methods are:</p>
-<pre>
-ExampleCounter::~ExampleCounter()
-{
-    destroy();
-}
-
-void ExampleCounter::destroy()
-{
-    PVRecord::destroy();
-}
-</pre>
-The destructor just calls destroy.
-The destroy method, which is virtual,  just calls the destroy method of the base class.
-A more complicated example can clean up any resources it used but must call the base
-class destroy method.
-<p>The implementation of init is:</p>
-<pre>
-bool ExampleCounter::init()
-{
-
-    initPVRecord();
-    epics::pvData::PVFieldPtr pvField;
-    pvValue = getPVStructure()-&gt;getLongField("value");
-    if(pvValue.get()==NULL) return false;
-    return true;
-}
-</pre>
-This:
-<ul>
-   <li>Calls initRecord which is implemented by the base class.
-    It MUST be called.</li>
-   <li>Calls getLongField to get the interface to the value field,
-    which must be a scalar with type long.</li>
-   <li>If a long value field was not found it returns false.</li>
-   <li>Returns true</li>
-</ul>
-<p>The implementation of process is:</p>
-<pre>
-void ExampleCounter::process()
-{
-    pvValue-&gt;put(pvValue-&gt;get() + 1.0);
-    timeStamp.getCurrent();
-    pvTimeStamp.set(timeStamp);
-}
-</pre>
-It adds 1.0 to the current value.
-It then sets the timeStamp to the current time.
-<h4>exampleCounterMain.cpp</h4>
-<p>This is in test/server.
-The main program is:</p>
-<pre>
-int main(int argc,char *argv[])
-{
-    PVDatabasePtr master = PVDatabase::getMaster();
-    ChannelProviderLocalPtr channelProvider = ChannelProviderLocal::create();
-    String recordName("exampleCounter");
-    PVRecordPtr pvRecord = ExampleCounter::create(recordName);
-    bool result = master-&gt;addRecord(pvRecord);
-    cout &lt;&lt; "result of addRecord " &lt;&lt; recordName &lt;&lt; " " &lt;&lt; result &lt;&lt; endl;
-    pvRecord.reset();
-    cout &lt;&lt; "exampleServer\n";
-    string str;
-    while(true) {
-        cout &lt;&lt; "Type exit to stop: \n";
-        getline(cin,str);
-        if(str.compare("exit")==0) break;
-
-    }
-    return 0;
-}
-</pre>
-This:
-<ul>
-  <li>Gets a pointer to the master database.</li>
-  <li>Creates the local Channel Provider. This starts the pvAccess server.</li>
-  <li>Creates a ExampleCounter record with the name exampleCounter
-  </li>
-   <li>Prints exampleCounter on standard out.</li>
-  <li>Runs forever until the user types exit on standard in.</li>
-</ul>
-<h3>Phased Development</h3>
-<p>This documentation describes the first phase of a phased implementation of pvDatabaseCPP:</pp>
-<dl>
-   <dt>pvRecord</d>
-      <dd>Wrapper on PVStructure that implements methods required by Local Channel Provider.</dd>
-   <dt>pvDatabase</d>
-      <dd>Database of PVRecords. Has methods find, add, and remove.</dd>
-   <dt>Local Channel Provider</dt>
-      <dd>Complete implementation of ChannelProvider and Channel.
-      This means that pvCopy and monitor are also implemented.</dd>
-</dl>
-<p>Future phases of pvDatabaseCPP might include:</p>
-<dl>
-   <dt>Install</dt>
-      <dd>This provides complete support for on-line add and delete
-       of sets of records.
-      With the first phase each "service" is responsible for it's own implementation.
-      All that is provided is addRecord and removeRecord.
-      </dd>
-   <dt>Field support</dt>
-      <dd>Add the ability to optionally add support to fields.
-       In addition some of the basic support defined in pvIOCJava could also be implemented.</dd>
-   <dt>XML parser</dt>
-      <dd>This provides the ability to create record instances without writing any code.</dd>
-</dl>
-<p>The completion of each phase provides useful features that can be used without waiting for the
-completion of later phases.
-The rest of this  document discusses only the first phase.</p>
-<h3>Features Required for localChannelProvider</h3>
-<dl>
-   <dt>pvCopy</dt>
-      <dd>Creates a PVStructure that contains a copy of an arbitary
-          subset of the fields of another top level PVStructure.
-        It can copy data between the two and maintains a bitSet that show
-        which fields are changed.<dd>
-   <dt>monitor</dt>
-      <dd>This provides the ability to monitor changes to fields of a record.</dd>
-   <dt>PVRecord and PVDatabase</dt>
-      <dd>Defined below.</dd>
-   <dt>The localChannelProvider itself</dt>
-     <dd>This is the pvAccess package in pvIOCJava.
-       The localChannelProvider will access data from PVRecords.
-     It will implement all channel methods.</dd>
-</dl>
-<h3>Minumum Features Required for pvRecord</h3>
-<p>The first phase will only implement record processing, i. e.
-the process method has to do everything itself without any generic field support.
-This will be sufficient for starting to implement services.
-The following are the minimium features required</p>
-<dl>
-  <dt>PVDatabase</dt>
-      <dd>This holds a set of PVRecords. It has methods to find, add, and remove records.</dd>
-  <dt>PVRecord</dt>
-     <dd>This, and a set of related interfaces, provides the following:
-        <dl>
-           <dt>Access to top level PVStructure</dt>
-             <dd>PVRecord is a wrapper on a top level pvStructure.</dd>
-           <dt>Record locking</dt>
-              <dd>A record can be locked and unlocked.
-              A record must be locked whenever data in the pvStructure is accessed.</dd>
-           <dt>Trapping data changes</dt>
-             <dd>A client can request to be notified when data in the pvStructure is modified.
-             It can do this on a field by field basis.</dd>
-        </dl>
-     </dd>
-</dl>
-<p>The following sections describes the classes required for the first phase.</p>

-     <dd>
-       The implementation of PVDatabase.
-     </dd>
-   <dt>pvRecord.cpp</dt>
-     <dd>
-       The implementation of the base class for PVREcord.
-       It can also implement record instances with a process
-       method does nothing.
-       This can be used to create a "dumb" record where all changes are
-       done by clients.
-       The complete implementation is provided in the header file.
-       Thus code will be generated only if other code includes the
-        header file and creates a record instance.
-     </dd>
-   <dt>exampleCounter.h</dt>
-     <dd>
-       This was described in the introduction.
-     </dd>
-   <dt>powerSupplyRecordTest.h</dt>
-     <dd>
-       This provides code that simulates a power supply.
-       It computes the current from the voltage and power.
-       It is used for testing.
-       The complete implementation is provided in the header file.
-       Thus code will be generated only if other code includes the
-        header file and creates a record instance.
-     </dd>
-</dl>
-<p>The classes in pvDatabase.h describe a database of memory resident
-smart records.
-It describes the following classes:</p>
-<dl>
-   <dt>PVRecord</dt>
-     <dd>This provides the methods required by localChannelProvider to implement Channel.</dd>
-   <dt>PVRecordField</dt>
-   <dt>PVRecordStructure</dt>
-     <dd>These wrap PVField and PVStructure so that pvCopy and monitor
-        can be implemented.</dd>
-   <dt>PVRecordClient</dt>
-      <dd>This is called by anything that acceses PVRecord.</dd>
-   <dt>PVListener</dt>
-      <dd>This is implemented by anything that wants to trap calls to PVRecord::message.</dd>
-   <dt>PVDatabase</dt>
