All,

Was there ever a plan to do server-side monitor filters which would allow you to monitor sub-arrays of waveforms? I seem to remember discussions where the server would recognise square bracket suffix in a similar way to it recognises a $ suffix to treat char arrays as strings.

I was thinking of something like:

camonitor fred.VAL[10-19]

Which would return elements 10-19 whenever the waveform posted a monitor. Or maybe it was offset and size, so the following would do the same thing:

camonitor fred.VAL[10,10]

... and would allow a syntax to allow strides if 3 numbers were given. However, I can't find any mention of it in any release notes. I know I can do something similar with a subArray record, but I thought there was something else on the horizon.

Cheers,
