Mark,

 

If you are considering Power Pmac, then powerPMAC EPICS driver development was contracted by NSLS-II, and is located:

Hi Ulrik,

 

Yikes, my apologies for missing that!  It would be good if GMCA can update their Web site (the first hit on Google) to point to Github.

 

I see that the Github version has not been changed to work with 3.15, so I will do that and send you a pull request.

 

Thanks,

Mark

Hi Mark,

 

We put tpmac on github sometime last year: https://github.com/epics-modules/tpmac

 

We are contributing our patches there. If you contribute Pull Requests there we will certainly help review from Diamond.

 

Cheers,

Ulrik

Hi Daron,

 

Thanks for the information.

 

Where did you get the upstream branch sources?

 

There is nothing here that is compatible with 3.15.

 

I am hoping someone will take responsibility for the canonical source and put it on a repository we can access and contribute to, like Github.  It would of course be best to preserve the version history in doing so.

 

Mark

Hi Mark,

 

See here - https://github.com/epicsdeb/pmacasyn<redir.aspx?REF=am-xt5_z3vx41I6ynRJil2lmrI4-U8fCPFL5ka2vu6UbxhTB0svTCAFodHRwczovL2dpdGh1Yi5jb20vZXBpY3NkZWIvcG1hY2FzeW4.>

Note the master branches are targeted at building Debian packages.

If you look at the upstream branches you should find canonical sources.

The Delta Tau controllers are the standard beamline motion systems at Diamond, Australian Synchrotron, and NSLS-II.  Yet there seems to be no Github or other public repository for this controller software where the latest source can be found, and where we can contribute fixes.

 

It is really frustrating for others of us who are using this controller that we have to struggle like this, when each of these institutions must have a working internal system.
