Source code Tango distribution

You can download a Tango source code release (release 8.1.2) from this WEB page. It is based on autoconf for Unix. It has been tested on various flavours of Linux (Ubuntu and Debian). Your feedback will be appreciated. The source distribution does not contain omniORB, zmq and omniNotify (when compatibility with old Tango releases is required). Tango release 8.1.2 was tested with omniORB-4.1.6, zmq 3.2 and omniNotify-2.1.

In case you need omniNotify for compatibility reasons, there is a warning  if you want to run it on a Linux based 64 bits computer. Its release 2.1 is not 64 bits compatible. To have a 64 bits ready release, you have to get the package from the branch named omniNotify_develop.On top of that, to compile omniNotify on a modern computer using C++ streams, you have to apply the patch provided by one community member.

Read through the list of changes to find out about the modifications compared to former releases or the modifications between the packages available to download.

Patches for this release and previous one are available in the patch page.

Older Releases:

 

Ubuntu GNU/Linux binary distribution

Since its release 7.2.6, Tango is available as a set of binary packages (Debian packaging system) for the Ubuntu GNU/Linux distribution. Ubuntu lucid (release 10.04), maverick (release 10.10) and natty (release 11.04) are available. The binary packages are made available on the Launchpad web site in a tango-controls/core PPA (Personal Packages Archive)

If you are a Ubuntu lucid or maverick user, read this HowTo to learn how you can install Tango on your computer in a few clicks.

 

Since Ubuntu oneiric (release 11.10), most of these binary packages are available directly from the Ubuntu software center and you don't need to add the PPA to get them. Nevertheless, the package named libtango-java (Tango java jar file and java tools like Jive, Astor, Atkpanel,...) is only available from the PPA. If you need this package, you have to get it from there.

RPM GNU/Linux packages

Several RPM packages are also available. They are provided on a best-effort basis and it is guaranteed that they are in line with latest official Tango distribution. The official way to distribute Linux Tango binary packages are  the Debian packaging system. These links are provided here in case it could be useful for RPM packaging system addicts. Packages are available for RHEL6/Centos6 64 bits, RHEL6/Centos6 32 bits, RHEL5/Centos5 64 bits and RHEL5/Centso5 32 bits.

        • A binary application (TangoExplorer) which automatically generates a Panorama E2 application from all available Tango devices.
        • A set of libraries allowing a Panorama E2 application to control Tango device(s)

GUIs

Documentation

 

Contains user documentation, sample code, developer documentation:

http://sourceforge.net/p/tango-cs/code/HEAD/tree/api/java/server/JTangoServer/trunk/doc/

 

Building a server with JTangoServer

 
  • With maven

The soleil maven repository must be used. The detailed explanations are here:

http://www.tango-controls.org/howtos/how-to-compile-with-maven

 

Simply add the following dependency to your pom.xml with the latest version:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.tango</groupId>
    <artifactId>JTangoServer</artifactId>
    <version>1.0.2-alpha</version>
</dependency>

 

  • Without maven:

You will have to download JTangoServer-XXX-all.jar manually and include it in your classpath.

Known limitations

 

The most important limitation is that the events are not yet available in the Java API. It has to be implemented with ZMQ version 3 to be able to communicate with C++ servers.

A first version of the POGO templates has been done but there are still a few issues. They should be available soon.
