How to Create Example IOC Log [EPICS]

Make directory

[root@root]# mkdir testIOC

[root@root]# cd testIOC

Enter the following commands in a position to make the IOC.

[root@root testIOC]# makeBaseApp.pl -t ioc testIOC

testIOC is an example IOC file in the /base/templates/makeBaseApp/top/.
Enter the name of the IOC that you made after the ioc.

[root@root testIOC]# ls
configure  Makefile  testIOCApp

And make iocBoot. Enter the name you want to do in 'Application name?'.

[root@root testIOC]# makeBaseApp.pl -i testIOC
Using target architecture linux-x86_64 (only one available)
The following applications are available:
    testIOC
What application should the IOC(s) boot?
The default uses the IOC's name, even if not listed above.
Application name? testIOC

 [root@root testIOC]# ls
configure  iocBoot  Makefile  testIOCApp

Done!

Here is the tree structure of the IOC.

Here is the makeBaseApp.pl help response.

[root@node2 testIOC]# makeBaseApp.pl -h
Usage:
<base>/bin/<arch>/makeBaseApp.pl -h
             display help on command options
<base>/bin/<arch>/makeBaseApp.pl -l [options]
             list application types
<base>/bin/<arch>/makeBaseApp.pl -t type [options] [app ...]
             create application directories
<base>/bin/<arch>/makeBaseApp.pl -i -t type [options] [ioc ...]
             create ioc boot directories
where
 app  Application name (the created directory will have "App" appended)
 ioc  IOC name (the created directory will have "ioc" prepended)

 -a arch  Set the IOC architecture for use with -i (e.g. vxWorks-68040)
          If arch is not specified, you will be prompted
 -b base  Set the location of EPICS base (full path)
          If not specified, base path is taken from configure/RELEASE
          If configure does not exist, from environment
          If not found in environment, from makeBaseApp.pl location
 -d       Enable debug messages
 -i       Specifies that ioc boot directories will be generated
 -l       List valid application types for this installation
          If this is specified the other options are not used
 -p app   Set the application name for use with -i
          If not specified, you will be prompted
 -T top   Set the template top directory (where the application templates are)
          If not specified, top path is taken from configure/RELEASE
          If configure does not exist, top path is taken from environment
          If not found in environment, the templates from EPICS base are used
 -t type  Set the application type (-l for a list of valid types)
          If not specified, type is taken from environment
          If not found in environment, "default" is used
 -u user  Set username; overrides OS defaults

Environment:
EPICS_MBA_DEF_APP_TYPE  Application type you want to use as default
EPICS_MBA_TEMPLATE_TOP  Template top directory
EPICS_MBA_BASE          Location of EPICS base

Example: Create exampleApp

<base>/bin/<arch>/makeBaseApp.pl -t example example
<base>/bin/<arch>/makeBaseApp.pl -i -t example example
