Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

Folks,

 

I have added autoconverted files from medm .adl to each of the following display managers in all of the areaDetector and synApps repositories.

edm (.edl files)

caQtDM (.ui files)

CSS-BOY (.opi files)

CSS-Phoebus (.bob files)

 

I re-ran the conversions with the latest version of the conversion tools.

 

I have changed the configure/ and Makefiles in each repository so that the conversion is done by running “make” in the repository.  If an adl file is modified the autoconverted files will be updated when the make “build” or “install” targets are run.

 

These autoconverted files are a bit different from other files.  They are in the git revision control system as a convenience, to save all sites needing to have the conversion tools installed and available.  But the files can be deleted with make. To prevent accidentally deleting them, the “clean”, “realclean” and “distclean” make targets do not delete them. One must go to the App/op directory and run the make target clean.ui, clean.opi, clean.edl, clean.bob, or opiclean (which cleans them all).

 

Sites that want to do the conversions locally can look at the following two files to see how to configure it.  These files sit in the $(SUPPORT)/configure directory.

https://github.com/EPICS-synApps/configure/blob/master/CONFIG_SITE.linux-x86_64

The above file is loaded from $(SUPPORT)/configure/CONFIG_SITE if it exists.

 

https://github.com/EPICS-synApps/configure/blob/master/RULES_OPI

This file is loaded from each App/op/Makefile if it exists.

 

The conversion tools are available as follows:

edl files: adl2edl from https://github.com/epicsdeb/adl2edl

opi files: Nightly build of CSS

bob files: Nightly build of Phoebus

ui files: Latest version of caQtDM

 

In addition to all areaDetector repositories, the following repositories have the new autoconverted files:

Let me know of any problems.
