We just had a bug where there was a stray $ in the PV name for an OUT link. Just a typo. I was surprised that there was no error message from dbLoadRecords. But I couldn't find anything saying that this was an invalid PV name, unless the $ is followed by ()
or {} with an undefined macro. Is that the intent? Does anyone use $ in PV names? Or should that have produced an error message?
