Hello everyone,

I have a question about P4P and its support for Channel Access (CA) with a provider flag.

No.  PVXS (and by extension P4P >= 4) are only a PVA client/server.


The pvget command includes an option to select the provider, with 'pva' being the default.

Here’s an example:

$ caget IOC:IN20:EV01:IOC_CPU_LOAD
IOC:IN20:EV01:IOC_CPU_LOAD     9.82578

$ pvget IOC:IN20:EV01:IOC_CPU_LOAD
Timeout

$ pvget -p ca IOC:IN20:EV01:IOC_CPU_LOAD
IOC:IN20:EV01:IOC_CPU_LOAD 10.2621


I want to implement something similar using P4P, but I haven’t been able to find a way to do so. Could someone clarify this for me? Thank you for your help!

Best regards,
Kuktae
