Subject: Re: DBE_PROPERTY in CS-Studio Phoebus
Hi:
For the most recent version of CS-Studio, i.e. the one that no longer depends on Eclipse, https://github.com/controlSystemStudio/phoebus/, the preference settings https://control-system-studio.readthedocs.io/en/latest/preferences.html that
control support for DBE_PROPERTY are described in https://control-system-studio.readthedocs.io/en/latest/preference_properties.html#pv-ca :
# Is the DBE_PROPERTY subscription supported
# to monitor for changes in units, limits etc?
org.phoebus.pv.ca/dbe_property_supported=false
For the older Eclipse-based CS-Studio, the corresponding setting should be "diirt.ca.dbe.property.supported" as listed in
https://github.com/ControlSystemStudio/cs-studio/blob/master/core/diirt/diirt-plugins/org.csstudio.diirt.util.core.preferences/preferences.ini

Subject: [EXTERNAL] DBE_PROPERTY in CS-Studio Phoebus
Hello,
I am using CS-Studio Phoebus, version 4.6.3 with epics version 7.0.4. I have an asynPortDriver that will change the enum strings of an mbbo record based on the value of a different mbbo record. When trying to get the combo box values to properly reflect
the new string values, I ran across this message from 2016 regarding CS-Studio version 4.2.x.
https://epics.anl.gov/tech-talk/2016/msg01005.php
While it discusses exactly what I want to happen, the steps do not seem to match the version of CS-Studio that I am using. Does anyone have updated instructions that I can follow?
