Converting existing DQMH modules to HSE GenNet

[hutchforth]

Hi all,

I've been messing around with the HSE generic networking module, and wanted to utilize it in a few modules in my project to facilitate a HMI on a PC communicating with an RT target. 

I wanted to ask if there is there a straightforward way to convert an existing DQMH module to have the generic networking features? At the moment the options seem to be: 

a) Manually remake the modules on top of a copy of the GenNet example

b) Manually add the GenNet functionality to my existing modules - Manual duplication of GenNet Requests

I guess the main reason I'm here is to check that I didn't miss something in the documentation that would make my life easier in retroactively trying to make use of the GenNet functionality in my project! For lack of a better option, I will probably do b), and create a GenNet template to use as a base for future modules, but please let me know if you know of a better way! 

Thanks!

I just noticed the new DQMH feature in 7.1 that allows for duplication of events between different modules, which I suppose will help me with the duplicating of the GenNet requests in other modules! Good timing DQMH consortium! 

EDIT: Looks like duplication is not the way to go, and its better to approach it from the GenNet template, since the GenNet functionality depends on on module specific SubVIS that would also need duplication for each module that I tried to retroactively add GenNet to - easier to just rebuild my modules on top of the GenNet template I think!
