Hi Anton,

The edl2ui will be a very useful tool for EPICS Qt application development. A year ago, I wrote a prototype tool for mapping your caQtDM widgets to EDM widgets as much as possible, but it is not in great details as yours. At that time, I thought there should be some potential users up there. I would suggest to create a better mapping table of your caQtDM functionality coverage to MEDM and EDM so that potential users will see easily how much functionality they can use from your caQtDM. I did one before as below:

Graphics	Graphics	Graphics	Description
MEDM widget (from Doc)	EDM widget (from Doc)	CaQtDM
Line	Lines	caPolyLine
Rectangle	Rectangle	caGraphics
Oval	Circle	caGraphics
Arc	Arc	caGraphics
Text	Static Text	caLabel
Image		caImage
	GIF Image	?
	PNG Image	?
	HTML	?
	Dynamic Symbols	?
Polygon		caPolyLine
Polyline		caPolyLine

Monitors	Monitors	Graphics
MEDM widget (from Doc)	EDM widget (from Doc)	CaQtDM
Meter Monitor	Meter	caThermo
Bar	Bar	caThermo
Text	Text Monitor	caLineEdit
Byte Monitor		caByte
	Byte	?
Cartesian Plot		caCartesianPlot
Strip Chart		caStripPlot
	X-Y Graph	caCartesianPlot or caStripPlot
	Message Box	?
	Symbols	?
Scale Monitor		?

Controls	Controls	Graphics	Description
MEDM widget (from Doc)	EDM widget (from Doc)	CaQtDM
Entry Text	Text	caTextEntry
Slider	Slider	caSlider
Menu	Menu Button	caMenu
Choice Button	Choice Button	caChoice
Message Button	Message Button	caMessageButton
Related Display	Related Display	caRelatedDisplay
Shell Command	Shell Command	caShellCommand
	Menu Mux (multiplexor)	?
	Multiplexor	?
	Button	?
	Motif Slider	caSlider
	Up/Down Button	?
	Exit Button	?
	Radio Box	?
Wheel Switch		caNumeric
Composite		Use caFrame and caInclude
Display		?

Hope that helps

Best regards

Zai Wang

Dear all,

Version 3.8.9 of caQtDM is available for linux, windows, macOS and IOS (Ipad). The IOS version 3.8.9 can be downloaded from the apple store (new version in about one week).

Now this version also includes a simple tool called edl2ui to convert edm files to ui files. caQtDM follows the philosophy of MEDM and thus not all features of EDM can be integrated. edl2ui is therefore a simplified conversion tool and while at PSI EDM is not used, it could not be really fully tested. However it is quite easy to modify and add forgotten items and properties (see parserClass.cc in directory parserEDM). This could be done by the interested laboratories. Please return then to us the changes made.

Give me some feedback if you are using caQtDM.

Best regards
