Detailed Description

Class to support parameter library (also called parameter list); set and get values indexed by parameter number (pasynUser->reason) and do asyn callbacks when parameters change.

The parameter class supports 3 types of parameters: int, double and dynamic-length strings.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

paramList::paramList	(	int	nValues,
		asynStandardInterfaces *	pasynInterfaces
	)

Constructor for paramList class.

Parameters:

[in]	nValues	Number of parameters in the list.
[in]	pasynInterfaces	Pointer to asynStandardInterfaces structure, used for callbacks

paramList::~paramList ( )

asynStatus paramList::callCallbacks ( int addr )

Calls the registered asyn callback functions for all clients for any parameters that have changed since the last time this function was called.

Parameters:

[in] addr A client will be called if addr matches the asyn address registered for that client.

Don't do anything if interruptAccept=0. There is a thread that will do all callbacks once when interruptAccept goes to 1.

asynStatus paramList::callCallbacks ( )

Parameters:

[in]	index	The parameter number
[out]	value	Address of pointer that will contain name string pointer.

Returns:: Returns asynParamBadIndex if the index is not valid

paramVal * paramList::getParameter ( int index )
