We are using ELOG from http://midas.psi.ch/elog/index.html and would like to be able to have an IOC make automated e-log entries. This particular package comes with source code for a command line tool for making entries and I assume this can be easily adapted to the task at hand. I am wondering if others have done similar things and if they have any advice. It seems non-trivial to manipulate lengthy strings in an IOC (use waveform record?) so I was thinking it might be easier to create device support that reads in a file of pre-canned messages on start-up and then have an output record pass to device support an index to one of these messages. However I can also think of other ways to do this, e.g. an external script that monitors a particular record via Channel Access and does the appropriate things when it sees a change. I am open to ideas. Thanks, John Dobbins Laboratory of Elementary Particle Physics Cornell University p.s. What type of person write to Tech-talk at 10:00 PM ???
