Ok, I implemented desktop notifications. In the MIDAS config page, you can now enable browser notifications for the different types of messages. Not sure
this works perfectly, but a staring point. So please let me know if there is any issue.

return rpc_call(RPC_DB_COPY_XML, hDB, hKey, buffer, buffer_size, header);

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 |

The histories capture key events from 'r' 'u' 'y' and 'Escape' for various functions like rescaling etc. However, this also means that if we include an
editable modbvalue and a history in the same custom page then changing the modbvalue to something that includes 'ruy' is not possible.

I agree with you, option 2 is better and works well.
The only problem is that if you are showing multiple histograms in the same window the keyDown even will affect all of the histories in the window.
This may be the intended behaviour, but I think that if we can find a way to have the event affecting only the intended history (focused element for example) |

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 |
