Experimental Physics and Industrial Control System
Hi,
Sorry for this newbie question... I come from the Tango community, and I am
quite lost with Epics
I am a developer of Taurus [1], a GUI library initially designed to provide
PyQT GUIs on top of Tango. But our goal is to also support other
communication/control systems such as Epics.
I recently implemented some very basic support for epics in Taurus (just a
proof of concept) using PyEpics, and one of the first questions that I came
across is:
How can I obtain a list of all PVs that are available?
... or even better, can I get a list of all PVs whose name contains a certain
prefix?
The reason I want this is that I want to create a browser/selector of PVs. I
do not care that much if the method is slow (I could live with doing it once
and only manually refreshing the list).
But I need the method to be generic, i.e. it should not assume some non-
standard service (such a site-dependent database) to be available.
Is this possible at all?
Cheers,
