CSDataQuick

This project brings EPICS control system data into QML/QtQuick programming.

Overview

The QML module provides a CSData object to model CSDataQuick.Data control system data, and a collection of visual QtQuick items to control/monitor the data. These visual items are ready to be used inside the Qt Quick Designer by a drag-n-drop.

In addition it includes the following programs,

• viewer
This program can be used to display the created QML files. And as its name suggests, it can also parse ADL, EDL and UI files and create the display with equivalent QtQuick items.
• builder
This program can be used to build one time display panels on the fly.
