 11 Oct 2024, Denis Calvet, Bug Report, Frontend name must differ from others by more than the last three characters
|
Hi,
I have developed two Midas front-end programs for different hardware. The frontend_name of the first one is "FSCD_SC" (slow control) and that of the second
one is "FSCD_PS" (power supply).

Thank you for the stack trace, I fixed the buglet that cause midas programs to crash twice,
once on failure to lock ODB, then call exit() -> atexit() handlers -> cm_check_connect() -> crash on ODB lock
failure is the cm_msg() codes.

Today, I encountered the bug shown in the attached video. The value of the plotted curve does not match the mouseover number.
When trying to understand it better, I stopped being able to replicate. Has anyone else observed a similar problem? |

After following Konstantin's debugging suggestions, I thought I would try to replicate
the issue on my own computer. My hope was that I could provide instructions for
replicating the bug so that the MIDAS team could try debugging things more easily.
