pvaClient/README.md

Status

• The API should be almost ready for feature freeze for release 4.5
• Everything defined in pvaClient.h should be ready but see below for remaining work.
• Everything defined in pvaClientMultiChannel.h is ready but see below for remaining work.

Examples

The examples require the database in pvaClientTestCPP. For example:

... mrk> pwd /home/epicsv4/pvaClientTestCPP/database/iocBoot/exampleDatabase mrk> ../../bin/linux-x86_64/exampleDatabase st.cmd ...

pvaClientChannel

Channel::getField and channelArray are not supported for release 4.5.

pvaClientMultiChannel

For release 4.6 support is available for multiDouble and NTMultiChannel. In the future additional support should be provided that at least includes NTScalarMultiChannel.

Testing with some channels not connected have not been done. At least some testing with missing channels should be done before release 4.5
