| Does magic_bit_alias affect all points
in that module? |

Hi Jiri !!
I'm thinking about use magic_bit_aliases.
If I set magic_bit_aliases = 1,
all points in this module must be 32 bit long (or 16bit),
and each of them has 32(or 16) alias points ?
If I make a point called my_point,
can I get point handle by alias name (my_point.0)?
And is it 1 bit point ?
Also get handle of my_point and it's 32 bit long?
thank you
ikeya

Any size of points is allowed regardless of the
magic_bit_aliases setting.

Yes.
> And is it 1 bit point ?
There are two possibilities:
* if my_point is at least 1 bit long, my_point.0 will be a 1
bit point.
* if my_point is 0-length, my_point.0 will also be 0-length
A third possibility would be if the offset is greater than
the length of the
point. For instance, if my_point is 5 bits long, my_point.31
is invalid.
(Note that there is a special case: if my_point is 0-bit,
all sub-points are
valid and 0-length. This makes it possible to "comment
out" a point by making
it 0-length even if it does have sub-points.)
> Also get handle of my_point and it's 32 bit long?
my_point will have whatever length is declared in the
matplc.conf file.

Thank you Jiri!
I understood magic_bit_aliases is not good for my purpose.
I'm making a server module which reads in the status of points (to real world) and drive fieldbus master card.
I think it's time consuming to read points one by one, so I'm planinng to read them at a word.
Is there any good way ?

Unfortunately, no.
We were planning to add this to the I/O library, but we
haven't done it yet -
it's a difficult thing to do well in general.
Actually, thinking of it now, maybe it wouldn't be that
difficult after all;
we could simply have multiple MatPLC points specified in the
"map" table;
they'd be concatenated before being sent through to the I/O.
Would that solve the problem?

I'm sorry, I was thinking of possible additional
functionality for the
"map ..." lines in the matplc.conf file.
It's not currently possible to do that; however, it might be
reasonably easy
to add such functionality there. The question is whether it
would help...
