Subject: Can I override record definition twice in an IOC

I have implemented a record in two separate files which I then use substitutions to combine into a single db file. I am unsure I am allowed to do this after talking to a colleague; he is worried that this will create 2 PVs with identical names. My DB file contains (after make):


record(ai, "NAME") {
  field(DESC, "A PV")
  field(EGU, "Gauss")
}

...

record(ai, "NAME") {
  field(FLNK, "ANOTHER_RECORD")
}

Does this do what I am expecting, which is to create a single PV:


record(ai, "NAME") {
  field(DESC, "A PV")
  field(EGU, "Gauss")
  field(FLNK, "ANOTHER_RECORD")
}

Thank you.

John
