Subject: Check Box widget in CSS BOY
From: Hovanes Egiyan <[email protected]>

Hi,

I needed to change the bits of a "longout" EPICS record from a GUI, and I tried using the
"Check Box" widget of CSS BOY. I did not find a single widget that would
do it for all bits, similar to what "ByteMonitor" widget does for monitoring. So I set up each instance of "CheckBox" widget to control one bit of a "longout" record
by specifying "bit" property of the widgets.  In general this
seems to work, with an exception of writing to the highest bit (bit 31). When I set bit-31 to 1, all other bits turn to zero and the variable value becomes 0x80000000. After that all of the instances of "CheckBox" widget that refer to that same variable "freeze", any attempt to change any of these bits with "CheckBox" widget fails with the error message given below. I do not know if this is a feature or a bug.
Did anyone else see such behaviour for "CheckBox" widget? I can find a
workaround for this but it would be better if this widget worked for bit-31 as well. I use BASIC EPICS CSS binaries from SNS, and I get the same result on 32-bit and 64-bit
architectures.
