Re: Java Status?

["Johnson, Andrew N. via Tech-talk" <tech-talk at aps.anl.gov>]

Hi Kim,

 

Welcome back!

 

For using Java with EPICS you’ll want to look at Control System Studio and its newest CSS-Phoebus variant, which have taken over the maintenance and development of the Java implementations of CA and PVA. There still isn’t a Java-based IOC, but those UI tools and related middleware are more advanced and integrated than any other EPICS platform.

 

HTH,

Hi All,

I’ve been away from EPICS for several years.  I see a lot of progress has been made with version 7. The docs look really good and the build is much easier than it used to be.  Great job!

I don’t see much in the docs regarding Java, although I see there is an epicsCoreJava repo on GitHub.  I’m especially interested in PVA support in Java and whether it is possible to have any sort of Java-based IOC.

Can someone say what the status of Java is in EPICS and point me to any relevant docs?

Thank you!

Kim
