It is my assumption that if I define a record like so
record(ai, "pvname") {
alias("aliasname")
field(DESC , "This is a desc")
}
Then, caget on pvname.NAME and caget on aliasname.NAME will give me the same result; i.e. pvname. That is, the .NAME field is used to hold the true name of the record and is the same when I refer to the record by using the realname or the aliasname.
Would this be a correct assumption? One of our PCAS IOC's is using the .NAME field for something else and I'm trying to determine if this would be the right thing to do.

Murali
