I don't have a preference for replacement symbols. Percent is fine
There's a possibility this could conflict with the way arrays of objects are formatted if we're using the %
symbol to specify how the array's index will be formatted in the PV name. Either way it's probably good practice to allow us to change exactly which symbol we use for this at a later date. #
, @
, &
. and ^
could be good replacements if we need them. Maybe we start with one of the other symbols so if Beckhoff hasn't patched the $
rejection by the time we need it ('it' being the %
symbol), we don't have to create a second interim convention.
Good point, @n-wbrown, I think we probably should avoid %
for your stated reason...
@
as the alternate character for pv:
strings.
With
$
in the pragma, the entire pragma is ignored and not included in the.tmc
.%()
in values with$()
for example? (cc @n-wbrown @ZLLentz)
