Subject: Does P4P Support Channel Access (CA) with a Provider Flag?

Hello everyone,

I have a question about P4P and its support for Channel Access (CA) with a provider flag. The pvget command includes an option to select the provider, with 'pva' being the default.

Here’s an example:

$ caget IOC:IN20:EV01:IOC_CPU_LOAD  
IOC:IN20:EV01:IOC_CPU_LOAD     9.82578  

$ pvget IOC:IN20:EV01:IOC_CPU_LOAD  
Timeout  

$ pvget -p ca IOC:IN20:EV01:IOC_CPU_LOAD  
IOC:IN20:EV01:IOC_CPU_LOAD 10.2621  


I want to implement something similar using P4P, but I haven’t been able to find a way to do so. Could someone clarify this for me? Thank you for your help!

Best regards,
Kuktae
