# helloPutGet

The example implements a simple service that has a top level pvStructure:

    structure
        structure argument
            string value
        structure result
            string value
            time_t timeStamp
                long secondsPastEpoch
                int nanoseconds
                int userTag


It is designed to be accessed via a channelPutGet request.
The client sets argument.value
When the record processes it sets result.value to "Hello " 
concatenated with argument.value.
Thus if the client sets argument.value equal to "World"
result.value will be "Hello World".
In addition the timeStamp is set to the time when process is called.</p>

Specific explanations and instructions can be found in the documentation of the parent 
module `exampleJava`.
