Subject: PVXS programmatically create pvalinks

I have an application that programmatically creates PV’s using pvxs::ioc::server (based on the examples at https://epics-base.github.io/pvxs/example.html)

 

Is there any way to create links between these PV’s?

 

I notice that fields that implement timestamp, alarms, display units, etc are implemented in nt.cpp with explicit name strings, and I don’t see anything relevant to links.

 

If this is not implemented, I suppose one would build a DB file and call dbLoadRecords on it?  If one does that, can those PV’s reference PV’s created created programmatically?
