Very good idea. And thanks for finding the document.hidden solution. I put it in, so give it a try.
Best,

Hi, Stefan - I did not look at your code, if all midas tabs are inactive, will the alarm sound still play?

Nope. All updates are done in mhhtpd_refresh(), and I changed it such that nothing is updated if hidden.

I have compiled the sources on Darwin 7.4.0 with gcc 3.3. After the compilation of source codes, I
try to execute "gmake install". I got the following message:

There are not such a file "io.h" inside my MacOS X. In fact, I didn't find any file containing function iopl().
So what is the equivalent function of iopl() under MacOS X? The utility dio should be modified in order to be compiled under Darwin-
gcc platform. |

I see - thank you for the explanation!
Indeed, updating MIDAS clients on each and every RPI etc in a running experiment may be a real challenge.

I wonder why one needs more than 256 hotlinks at all. Please note that with the odbxx "watch" API, you can hotline a whole subdirectory, and get notified
if ANY of the
underlying values or subdirectories change. In principle, one could have one hotlink to "/" and see all changes in the ODB (although that does not make |

actually, only local clients must be rebuilt, remote clients connecting to the mserver do not care about ODB

I confirm that ALPHA is running with MAX_OPEN_RECORDS changed from 256 to 2048,

For the record, the ND280 (T2K near detector) MIDAS GSC was initially set up
with MAX_OPEN_RECORDS = 2560 and MAX_CLIENTS = 128.
