We have encountered a safety issue with our HPGe HV and it's midas frontend. Turning off or changing HV unknowingly has to be avoided at all costs.
Current safety protection
We use the DF_REPORT_STATUS flag to give the hardware settings precedence over
odb settings. This all takes place in the init. |

At TRIUMF and other labs the words "safety issue" have very specific meaning and

Dear Konstantin,
So let me retract the term "safety issue" then, it was more a request/question for this type of

There is a not-so-well-known function in the ODB to write protect some keys. You can do
odbedit> chmod 1 /Equipment/HV/Demand

I really like the concept of the odbxx interface.
I think it would be a nice feature if one could have a read_only connection, e.g. by declaring a "const midas::odb".
Just for fun I tried if this already works, but the compiler doesn't allow const midas::odb for e.g. the [] operator. I'm guessing this would be non-trivial |

Ok, I implemented and committed that. Just call

Ciao,
we have a very strange issue with python lib with client.odb_get("/") function
when running as midas process and matplotlib is used.

Looks like a localisation issue. Your floats are formatted as "6,6584e+01", whereas the JSON decoder expects "6.6584e+01".
Can you run the following few lines please? Then I'll be able to write a test using the same setup as you:

This should be fixed in the latest commit to the midas develop branch. The JSON specification requires a dot for the decimal separator, so we must ignore |
