Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System

Hello,

I see (from doc and sources) that the genSub record does not provide for
asynchronous processing. Is there a special reason for this?

I made experimental changes to the latest version 1-4 so that asynch
processing is recognized. These are the diffs:

ice: .../genSubV1-4/src > diff genSubRecord.org.c genSubRecord.c
450a451
>   unsigned char  pact = pgsub->pact;
452d452
<   pgsub->pact = TRUE;
455a456,460
>   if ( pgsub->pact )
>     goto completion;
> 
>   pgsub->pact = TRUE;
> 
510a516,517
>   pgsub->pact = FALSE;
> 
512a520,523
> completion:
>   if ( !pact && pgsub->pact ) return(0);
>   pgsub->pact = TRUE;
> 
513a525
>   {
514a527
>   }

Comments?

The reason why I am interested is this: I need to perform most real
actions in some extra task. Therefore the record's subroutine only sends
messages to this task. This makes it difficult to get error status back
to the record.

Ben
