One place is the synApps "ip" module.  This name is historical, but it is basically a repository for various devices that communicate with strings and are not the types of devices in dedicated repositories like "motor", "vac", etc.

These are the protocols currently in "ip":

It would be great if others would contribute here.

Thanks for the detailed explanation! Turns out I was simply missing the
inclusion of the calc.dbd file. Having added that, everything is happily
compiling now. The created dbd file looks ok, and libcalc is linked
against the binary as it should.

BTW: Is there some place where implemented protocols for StreamDevice are
being collected? I guess there must be solutions for many different
devices already existing out there...
