PS: is it a desired feature, that escaped characters are only handled in substitution files but not in templates?



I looked and the reason is that the lex definitions for the code that implements dbLoadRecord has definitions to handle escapes but the lex definitions for dbLoadTemples doesnt.


Perhaps the dbLoadTemplates code could be changed but if so the changes would have to be checked very carefully. Please note that msi can be used on the host to do what dbLoadTemplates does on the ioc. If many templates are being instantiated then it is much faster to load the result of msi than to use dbLoadTemplate. Users are encouraged to use msi NOT dbLoadTemplates.
