Hi Jamie and Michael,Thanks for your message, however what I want is how can I generate some PVs in some productive JAVA/Python program/scripts for communicating, not the python CA interface nor separately run an IOC; just like openXAL, to my understanding, one of the apps of this JAVA based framework --- 'virtuallinac' once be launched, an IOC would be running background, not by conventional way based on EPICS base routines.
I think Michael's pythonIoc is something what I'm looking for, thanks. Tong On 03/31/2015 02:59 PM, Jameson Graef Rollins wrote:

My tool epicsdbbuilder (https://github.com/Araneidae/epicsdbbuilder) allows you to create EPICS database files in Python. However, the result is a .db file which still needs to be executed by an IOC as a separate step.
