Hi Vishnu,

 

Hi Vishnu,

 

It sounds like you need an asynPortDriver driver that has a writeOctet method that basically calls system(“string”) or execl( “path”, “arg”, ... ) and catches the response from stdout in the readOctet method. I don’t think such a beast exists but if you took the asynPortDriver documentation (http://www.aps.anl.gov/epics/modules/soft/asyn/R4-21/asynPortDriver.html) and the example I don’t think it would take long to write. You could then use StreamDevice or an asyn record to work out what to do with the reply.

 

I am posting this to techtalk in case anyone has done this as an exercise and not published it yet.

 

Cheers,

Hi Nick,

      Actually i want to develop asyn based device support, so that EPICS PV have status of particular board is present or not in the system.   

In my linux layer for each board one file is generated in /dev/XXX     at boot time.

 

so if i can read the XXX file is present or not in /dev directory,  EPICS PV can display the status of perticular board.

 

Thanks

 

With regards

Vishnu

HI Vishnu,

You have to provide more information about what you want to do. Do you want to somehow implement an asyn support layer that implements a search (which I don't really understand) or do you just want to find where the asyn support code is in your file system. If the latter, the asyn device support file are in the asyn/devEpics directory of the asyn support module.
