Re: only use PVAccess

Hi Evan,

I haven't tested this recently, but you should be able to copy the base.dbd file from your Base/dbd directory into the source directory where you build that IOC binary and remove the inclusion of the rsrv.dbd file from the end of that copy. The base.dbd file only needs to be copied into the source directory, don't add it to the Makefile at all. Then rebuild the IOC (make sure you do either a 'make rebuild' or 'make clean; make') and the CA server should have been excluded from the resulting binary.

Hi,

 

I just had someone ask me if I could disable channel access on one of our test IOCs, so they could make sure that their application correctly processes PVAccess data. For now, we decided on blocking CA traffic on the client end. Is there a way to completely disable CA from being built into an IOC?
