Hi,

 

If you add the line

 

setlocal

 

to the top of  start_epics.bat   then changes to environment variables are not kept after the .bat file exits, so that should stop PATH growing too long

 

Regards,

 

Freddie

Hi William,

 

I forgot to follow-up on one part of your message:

 

I also noticed that the ddlPath.bat clobbers the PATH with each IOC boot until windows complains that the PATH is too long.
(this of course only happens if you launch the .bat from commandline, if launched via double-click its fine)

I'd suggest a change in dllPath.bat:

 

dllPath.bat is automatically generated by the build system in EPICS base, so that is not something I can change in ADLightField.

 

I think the intention of the EPICS developers is that dllPath.bat is something you execute once per terminal session, not something you execute each time the IOC is started.

 

Mark
