    I have added multiple instances of objects in my EPICS. and the count is more than 38. But while loading EPICS and checking for consistency errors, It is not showing all the Objects in the Object-list and also throwing error that the Object is in supported object types but not present in the ObjectList. When i check in the Object-List it is showing oly 38 objects and i cross-checked with EPICS file and syntax is correct for the remaining objects and even i am not missing any ",". Please help

    Two things to look at
    1) Are you sure that the problem is the NUMBER of objects rather than the TYPE of objects?  Edit a copy of your EPICS to contain a bunch of analog or binary objects (more than 38…), but avoid any of the "new" objects such as string-value etc.  then edit a copy of your EPICS that has all your object TYPES represented, but only one of each.

    2) The pre-built VTS executable has not been updated for a while.  If you have Visual Studio (NOT the Express edition - VTS uses MFC), you might try building the current source and seeing if there is still a problem.

    Failing that, can you post your EPICS here?

    Hi John,

    The problem was not with the Number of Objects.
    I was using property value '()" (empty brackets) for Start-Time and Stop-Time properties of Trend-Log Object. VTS was not parsing from here and llisting all other objcts present after this as not present in the Test Database.

    I changed the property values to "?", after which VTS was able to parse the remaining objects.
