How to Add a New Breakpoint Table

Copy menuConvert.dbd from base/dbd to the app’s src directory.
In the src directory, create a breakpoint table file <bpname>.dbd. Look at base/dbd/bpt*.dbd for the proper format.
In src/menuConvert.dbd, add a line for your new breakpoint table, using the breaktable name from the first line of <bpname>.dbd. Look at the existing breakpoint table entries in menuConvert.dbd for the proper format.
Two options depending on the monotonicity and base version
- If the breakpoint table is monotonic or epics base is < 3.14.9, add <bpname>.dbd to src/<appname>Support.dbd:
```
include <bpname>.dbd
```
If Makefile is used instead of <appname>Support.dbd, add to src/Makefile:
```
<appname>_DBD += <bpname>.dbd
```
- If the breakpoint table is non-monotonic and epics base > 3.14.8, install <bpname>.dbd by itself in src/Makefile:
```
DBD += <bpname>.dbd
```
Clean/build src.
Use the breaktable name in the record’s LINR field. Make sure that the device support for the record supports conversion.
If the breakpoint table is non-monotonic and epics base > 3.14.8, change st.cmd to set the non-monotonic flag and load the breakpoint table:

dbBptNotMonotonic=1 (rtems, vxWorks)

or:

var dbBptNotMonotonic 1 (soft)

then:

dbLoadRecords("dbd/<bpname>.dbd")
