[WIP] Reuse existing instrument when recreating a new instrument with same name and type

Open jenshnielsen opened this issue 3 years ago • 0 comments

This should remove one of the most common errors for users working interactively with qcodes

Obviously still a few issues:

  • [ ] See inline comment about checking that this is the same physical instrument.
  • [ ] Type checking could be cleaner
  • [ ] New tests and adaptions of old tests
  • [ ] Add bolean for recreate true - false

Now that this implements everything that find_or_create_instrument does we can also remove the use of than + perhaps deprecate it.
