EPICS V4 release 4.7

API changes to PvaClientMonitor

The second argument of method

static PvaClientMonitorPtr create(
    PvaClientPtr const &pvaClient,
    epics::pvAccess::Channel::shared_pointer const & channel,
    epics::pvData::PVStructurePtr const &pvRequest
);

Is now changed to

static PvaClientMonitorPtr create(
    PvaClientPtr const &pvaClient,
    PvaClientChannelPtr const & pvaClientChannel,
    epics::pvData::PVStructurePtr const &pvRequest
);

A new method is also implemented

static PvaClientMonitorPtr create(
    PvaClientPtr const &pvaClient,
    std::string const & channelName,
    std::string const & providerName,
    std::string const & request,
    PvaClientChannelStateChangeRequesterPtr const & stateChangeRequester,
    PvaClientMonitorRequesterPtr const & monitorRequester
);

Works with release/6.0 of pvAccessCPP

Not sure this will work with older versions of pvAccessCPP.

EPICS V4 release 4.6

• The examples are moved to exampleCPP.
• Support for channelRPC is now available.
• In PvaClientMultiChannel checkConnected() now throws an exception if connect fails.

pvaClient is a synchronous API for pvAccess.

This is the first release of pvaClientCPP. It provides an API that is similar to pvaClientJava.
