Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

Hi Chris,
I've used the .NET / C# Epics libraries from PSI that Alain is talking about for a project similar to yours in terms of vendor SDK providing .NET/C# libraries. The application I put together launches Beamgage (http://www.ophiropt.com/laser-measurement-instruments/beam-profilers/products/camera-based-profilers/beamgage) and pushes out the measurements it takes to epics pv's. Anyway the PSI Epics libs are straightforward to use and the whole project didn't take too long to get together, haven't had any issues after running now for about a year and a half.
cheers

Hi Chris,

Here at PSI we developed a whole .NET / C# EPICS stack both the client and a server. The EPICS server would be seen as a normal IOC for any client, while on the C# side you can define your PV, define scan rates and feed the PV with any C# value.

You can see under "Server Library" the example

https://sourceforge.net/p/epicssharp/wiki/Home/

If you are interested, you can either pick the library pre-compiled with nuget (included in VS 2013) or you can download the full source from Sourceforge.

Sincerely,

Alain Bertrand

Subject: using C# dll's

Hello,

     My group is contemplating purchasing a piece of equipment where the

vendor provides an SDK with dlls written in C#.  I don't really know much about C#.  Has anyone tried to use C# in epics device support before?  I assume I would have to wrap the API calls in a C++ application.  It would be great if I could look at an example. Thank you.

Chris
