Subject: EPICS 3.12 questions
From: Ric Claus <[email protected]>

I'm trying to upgrade my EPICS 3.11.1 applications to run under 3.12.0.  In
building the database, I made a short report under 3.11 dct and created a new
database using v1.15 dct under 3.12.  Then I modified from text file with the
short report I made.  Then I sf2db to generate a .db file which is loaded by
dbLoadRecords after default.dctsdr is loaded by dbLoad.  The dbLoadRecords
results in:
Cannot set field TEVL to a
Cannot set field ELVL to b
Cannot set field TVVL to c
Cannot set field TTVL to d
Cannot set field FTVL to e
Cannot set field FFVL to f
Cannot set field TEVL to a
Cannot set field ELVL to b
Cannot set field TVVL to c
Cannot set field TTVL to d
Cannot set field FTVL to e
Cannot set field FFVL to f
Cannot set field TEVL to a
Cannot set field ELVL to b
Cannot set field TVVL to c
Cannot set field TTVL to d
Cannot set field FTVL to e
Cannot set field FFVL to f
Cannot set field TEVL to a
Cannot set field ELVL to b
Cannot set field TVVL to c
Cannot set field TTVL to d
Cannot set field FTVL to e
Cannot set field FFVL to f
It turns out that these are my mbbi records and it appears that hex values are
no longer allowed for these fields, even though dct now shows a 0x in front of
each value and allows you to enter these values.  However, dct won't let me put 
in leading zeros to try and solve this problem.  If somebody's got a fix, could
we please have it?

Secondly, perhaps I've missed it somewhere (in which case please point me in
the right direction), but I haven't seen a translation tool to convert OPIs,
either .dl or .adl files from 1.16 edd/dm to 2.0 edd/dm.  What do I need to do
to bring up my old displays?  I really hope I don't have to redraw them.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

	Thanks,
		Ric
