Hi everyone,

Looks like I have a work-around for what was happening under RTEMS while

using iocshCmd:

Thanks to Till:  )

# This one does not work: as reported by Stephanie Allison in this

tech-talk thread

#iocshCmd("dbior > /data/iocInfo/IOC.dbior")

# However, this one does work under RTEMS. Thanks to Till:
Cexp@ioc-b34-ev02> > "/data/iocInfo/IOC.dbior" : dbior()

Cheers,
Ernest

Hi Eric;

The epicsStdioRedirect.h itself already includes the epicsStdio.h file.
Probably, we should merge those two files to one file.

Thank you.
Best regards,
Kukhee

For I/O redirection to work a source file must include epicsStdioRedirect.h.

This sucks.

Perhaps, but it does work across all supported platforms.

It this is the case, I would say that there is something wrong with the EPICS redirection. Code should not need to know about its "environment". This contradicts any good programming practice.

When this was originally implemented we felt it should be optional.  Perhaps now after 10 years in the field we should just add
#include<epicsStdioRedirect.h>
in epicsStdio.h.
