Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

Andrew,

Changing the template references in the DB Make file from _DEPENDS to _TEMPLATE didn't change a thing about the functions of the make.  I'm not sure it would have made a difference anyway, from the definition in 4.6.10 of the AppDevGuide.

However, I've run across a much more serious issue.

It seems that in my substitutions file, I can only have a single template file referenced.  I have a single substitution file that has sections for ai, ao, bi, and bo records.  All substitution lines in this file seem to use the first template definition file when the substitutions get expanded.

This worked on 3.14.12.4, but doesn't work in the new 3.15.1 software.

Included is the substitution file, and all sections of this file seem to use the first template definition.

Later-

Shouldn't those variables be spelled _TEMPLATE, not _DEPENDS?
