  1. The BLISS of Tango J. Meyer European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF) BLISS Day

  2. Outline • Differences to Taco • Latest Developments • Interesting Features The Tango Bliss by Misha Lenn BLISS Day

  3. Differences to Taco • Three programming languages supported • C++, Python, Java • Code generator, no more copy/paste • Fully multithreaded • Polling thread and data buffer in every server (integrated update daemon) • Events • Asynchronous group calls BLISS Day

  4. Differences to Taco • Attributes for a generic data access • Data range, alarms, data validity, formatting • Dynamic attributes and commands • Abstract interface definition • Administration interface for every server • start and stop, configuration, black box BLISS Day

  5. Latest Developments • Pogo 5.x can generate Python Tango device server code • Needs PyTango 3.0.2 and Tango 5.5.2 • Available from: ftp://ftp.esrf.fr/pub/cs/tango/Pogo • PyTango is available as a binary distribution for Windows (x86 32bit) • Needs Python 2.4.x and Tango 5.5.2 • http://www.tango-controls.org/bindings BLISS Day

  6. Latest Developments BLISS Day

  7. Latest Developments • Database with modification history • History values visible via Jive • Configurable depth of modification history BLISS Day

  8. Latest Developments • Canone 2.3.0 : The Tango WEB interface • Based on PHP and AJAX (for widget refreshing) • http://www.elettra.trieste.it/~tango/Canone BLISS Day

  9. Interesting Features • The Device Creation Wizard • A device server can start without any device defined • A device can be added to a running server BLISS Day

  10. Interesting Features • Device configuration • Jive • Property files BLISS Day

  11. Interesting Features • Abstract classes • Abstract interface definition • Can be a container for common code • Not yet available for Python BLISS Day

  12. Interesting Features • General purpose classes • Presented by Katy Saintin from Soleil at the Tango collaboration meeting September 2006 • Averager Class : • Statistics and filtering on Tango scalar attributes • TangoParser Class: • Calculates a tango attribute from a list of attributes • The formula can be defined at runtime in a mathematical syntax BLISS Day

  13. Interesting Features • General purpose classes • DataFitter Class • Fitting with Gaussian or Lorentzian functions • BeamImageAnalyzer Class • Beam box (bounding rectangle of the beam) • Approximation of the beam contour by an ellipse • Computation of moments from order 0 to 3 • Profiles against both axis and Gaussian fit of these profiles • 2D Gaussian fit of the image BLISS Day

  14. Interesting Features • Dynamic class loading • Pogo generates a Makefile to fill an archive class library and to create a shared library module for the class • A shared C++ class module can be loaded into a python Tango server • A C++ server can also load a class from a shared class module BLISS Day

  15. Interesting Features • Starter Server and Astor • Starting and stopping • Survey • Administration BLISS Day

  16. Latest Developments • Tango access control • Implemented already in the Java API • Ongoing development for the C++ API BLISS Day
