Hi I was wondering if the the correct way to get the PV aliased name is to look at the .NAME field of its alias. If I do Ø
pvget myalias.NAME I should get the “real” PV name which the alias point to. However this start to not be true if the length of the “real” PV name is > 39 chars ( <= 60 ) since the .NAME filed value is truncated to 39 chars (maybe some limitation on DBR_STRING ?)
