Re: db folder

[Ralph Lange <Ralph.Lange@bessy.de>]

If you build the example application that is part of base, it will
contain examples (hence the name) for IOC databases, state machines, a
CA client,... and will show you the necessary entries in the Makefiles
to create stuff. The "Getting Started" chapter of the Application
Developer's Guide has more details.

Cheers,
Ralph
