Introduction
The complete documentation for the DAQ -
DCS Communication package may be found at CERN/EDMS as https://edms.cern.ch/document/684955/5.5
Improvements/Fixes of ddc-05-08-02
All should be transparent for the users
- Release for 64 bits SLC6
platform is in place now
- DIM library is based on DIM
version 20.07 currently used also in DCS
Improvements/Fixes of ddc-05-08-03 –
ddc-05-08-08
All should be transparent for the users
DDC Command Transfer
- Fixed bug in execution of a transition
command without parameters
- User-defined IS data types for
NT-commands (introduced in ddcInfo package) are
used; As a result, suppressed DdcData.hxx and RuntimeRequest.hxx
DDC Data Transfer
- Publishing in IS message “Data
unavailable” instead of unavailable data (and, therefore, possible change
of data type) is cancelled. This concerns, in particular, StableBeamsFlag publication, where changing data type
is problematic for some TDAQ applications.
- Fixed bug in skipping a record
filed of types int64/uint64
Improvements/Fixes of ddc-05-09-02
All should be transparent for the users.
Differs from 05-09-01 with presence of these release notes.

Data Transfer
- Fixed bug in transfer to DCS a
record, where a field (not the first one) of the type array of strings
does not contain any member (the previous string field has been published)
- Introduced mechanism of
transfer to DCS of (u)int64_t data type. As soon
as these types cannot be accepted explicitly by PVSS/WCCOA, they are being
published in DIM as an array of uint. Every (u)int64-T is being represented by two 32-bits uint variables, where the first represents the least
significant 32 bits, the second – most significant bits. It is for the WCC
OA project developer to treat that representation
