The top-level repository for the EPICS areaDetector software. This repository contains mostly documentation, configuration files, and a top-level Makefile to build the entire areaDetector package.
The areaDetector code is contained in submodules under this module. Four of these are "core" submodules:
- ADSupport. This contains the source code for support libraries (TIFF, JPEG, HDF5, XML2, etc.). This is required for Windows and vxWorks, and can optionally be used on Linux and Darwin.
- ADCore. This contains the base classes, plugins, and documentation.
- ADSimDetector. This contains an example 2-D simulation detector driver and IOC.
- ADViewers. This contains viewers for displaying areaDetector images in ImageJ and IDL.
All of the other submodules (ADProsilica, ADPilatus, etc.) contain drivers and EPICS IOC applications for specific detectors.
