public final class PVContext
extends Object
Handle PV context, pool PVs by name.
When using the pure java CA client implementation, it returns the same 'channel' when trying to access the same PV
name multiple times. That's good, but I don't know how to determine if the channel for this EPICS_V3_PV is actually
shared. Calling destroy() on such a shared channel creates problems.
The PVContext adds its own hash map of channels and keeps a reference count.
