Subject: PVXS IOC Philosophy

Going forward, is the philosophy of PVXS to create PV’s programmatically, per the examples (i.e. https://mdavidsaver.github.io/pvxs/example.html#mailbox-server) ?

 

Or, is the idea of creating PV’s by providing record definitions and instances via DBD / DB files still intended to be relevant?

 

One can create a hybrid IOC (https://mdavidsaver.github.io/pvxs/ioc.html) and still take in DBD/DB files, but this doesn’t seem to really involve PVXS, at least from the developer’s perspective (other than the fact that QSRV2 makes it work).

 

As always, I may be completely wrong about any of that, so feel free to let me know.
