Please squash 36dbfda in the one adding those lines.
You can rewrite your branch history to accomplish this.

Github dropped some of my review comments 🫠. Will try to remember then again. |

In 1a125c6: I think that this commit can be split in two: The first one adding the module and the second one adding the new IOC image. |
Add twincat-ads repository and separate modules from the example IOC. - Clone twincat-ads recursively to include the BeckhoffADS submodule (traditional download .tar.gz does not contain this submodule). - Split repository into two folders: - ads-modules: EPICS modules (libraries) - ads-ioc: minimal example IOC - The twincat-ads repo does not provide the standard IOC layout (configure/, Makefile, iocBoot/), so a minimal example IOC is generated with makeBaseApp.pl. - Copy compiled modules and startup scripts from ads-modules into ads-ioc to produce a buildable IOC and avoid EPICS build errors. This keeps the module sources intact while providing a consistent, EPICS-compatible IOC structure.

As we discussed in depth in person, we'd like to move forward a more generic and reusable manner of dealing with IOCs inside epics-in-docker; especially in this case where the upstream doesn't provide a standard example IOC. I'm marking this PR as draft until we can tackle such improvements (in another PR), which would be directly applicable for this module's IOC. |
