Abstract :
We present the results of a recent effort on the use of software object components for software construction for the Advanced Light Source control system. Components are written for Win32 for low-level access both to the current control system and to EPICS Channel Access, and for higher level physics tools. We discuss the merits of the component-based approach based on our experience with several examples
