The
GaussianSlewLimited
quantity class only generated simulation values that are python primitive types (float in this case) which are appropriate for attributes with a SCALAR data format.This is a problem for the attrbiutes with more complex data formats,
SPECTRUM
/IMAGE
. When reading an attribute, the quantity returns a primitive type which PyTango is not expecting, therefore resulting in the error,Wrong Python type for attribute... Expected a sequence
. This change here allows us to cater for the complex data formats. The methodnext_val
now generates the simulation data according to the data format, given by themeta
dictionary.Resolves #157
