Hi!Is there any "Getting started with EPICS7" or "EPICS7 for dummies" or such, to get acquainted with version 7 new features?
One place to start is

Marty Kraimer
For example, for EPICS3 there are two essential presentations: 1. "Introduction to Channel Access Clients"https://epics.anl.gov/docs/GSWE/developtools/EPICSTraining.IntroductionToChannelAccessClients.pdf2. "Writing EPICS Drivers (and Device Support)" https://epics.anl.gov/meetings/2009-07/talks/em_WritingEPICSDrivers.pptWe, the BINP SKIF control system team, plan to use EPICS7 because of its richer type system, namely the following features:1. 64-bit integer and unsigned 32-bit integer types. 2. Variable-length arrays. 3. Structured types.But we are completely lost on how to deal with these novelties at C level.Are there any documents how to get started with C/C++ client API and Driver/Device support API?With best regards, Pavel Cheblakov on behalf of BINP SKIF automation team
