I've recently completed some changes to William Lupton's enhanced vxWorks
Variable device support routines, including adding support for waveform
records. The enhancements should be transparent as far as anyone using
either the original EPICS device support or William's modified version.
With the new version, if the variable name is an indirect reference, with
or without an array index (e.g. *pVariable or *pArray[5] ) then the
indirection now occurs at record-processing time rather than record
initialisation.
Support for waveform records allows a C array of any of the standard types
to be imported into the database. As with the support for strings, an
array index in the variable name controls how far into the array the first
element of the array is read from.
The new versions of the device support files are available at
ftp://ftp.ast.cam.ac.uk/pub/anj/devSymb.tar.Z
For details of the functionality read William's comments at the beginning
of devSymbFind.c
