Subject: DeferredMoves without setting moving flag

Hi,

I've been working on an asyn motor controller with DeferredMoves. This in principle works, however I noticed that when DeferedMoves is enabled, and I change the setpoint of an axis, the moving flag is raised for a short time (i.e. DMOV=0), even though the axis is not moving yet. I would like to get rid of this behavior.

As far as I understand it, this is probably induced by the calls to "pAxis->setIntegerParam(motorStatusDone_, 0);" here:

https://github.com/epics-modules/motor/blob/34474ed958838ea5083f598fa4bd9f1ca7e1821c/motorApp/MotorSrc/asynMotorController.cpp#L317

and the flag is reset by the next call of the axis poll() function.

Is there a simple way to avoid this, or do I have to rewrite the whole writeFloat64 function in my controller driver, and remove these lines?

Thanks,

Laurenz
