Marc Schier 5899354441 Clarify documentation, migration guidance, and SDK selection (#4823)
# Description

Remove stock phrasing and correct misleading or inconsistent technical
documentation. The initial two passes covered 367 Markdown files,
followed by an interactive review of 169 editorial flags. The U5
interpretation originally deferred in that review has since received the
upstream Mantis answer recorded by #4843; remaining server/spec
follow-ups stay explicit in the CTT log.

- Correct package responsibilities, migration steps, API names,
ownership, protocol descriptions and links. Keep bundled migration
guides synchronized. Preserve historical conclusions as historical
records with separate re-check notes.
- Provide at least two rendered TOC levels throughout `docs/`. Convert
appropriate architecture figures to Mermaid without changing code
examples, transcripts or historical quotations.
- Address the October 19 feedback with concrete setup/migration
instructions, corrected certificate paths and PubSub names, shorter
repeated caveats, consistent XML comments, and a full review of the
Concepts guide. Retain #4839's API corrections.
- Integrate #4841's runtime/performance guidance and review
incoming/recent prose. Preserve dated measurements rather than claiming
new benchmark runs; clarify allocation ratios, startup-only processor
settings, JIT warm-up and the benchmark commit's scope. Missing raw
measurement artifacts and repeat ranges remain tracked by #4842.
- Merge master through `e8c5d800a` in `32c6394b7`. Resolve the CTT log
conflict using the updated Mantis states and OPC answers, retaining
historical framing and re-checks for C28/C32/C43.
- Address the latest naming/index feedback in `adb5bf693`: rename the
guides to `docs/WotCon.md` and `docs/WotNodeSetConversion.md`; move the
provider and DataType-declaration contracts into the conversion guide
and remove `docs/WoT.md`. Rename `samples/DI` to `samples/Di` and
`samples/Isa95` to `samples/ISA95`. Add content-index READMEs to Di,
FluentApi, ISA95, Lds and PubSub; update solution entries, project
references, Docker/CI paths, test fixture paths and documentation links
with exact casing.

**WoT guide scope.** This branch retains the detailed conversion guide
that #4758 had replaced with an anchor stub. Conversion limits, verified
document sets, preservation rules and provider ownership now live
together in `WotNodeSetConversion.md`; binding/runtime guidance remains
in `WotBindings.md` and `WotCon.md`. The design-rationale/test-ledger
prose was shortened, the oversized argument-table cell moved into its
section, and existing anchors preserved.

**SDK policy is a separate, explicit user-directed change.**
`global.json` sets a stable minimum of `10.0.400`, `rollForward:
latestMajor`, and `allowPrerelease: false`. Newer major SDKs are
permitted; CI's explicit SDK pins are unchanged. README, GettingStarted,
DeveloperGuide and Recycling instructions reflect the possible analyzer
differences. The image-contract regression fix accepts compatible stable
SDK images instead of requiring exact equality with the floor.

The latest four rename/index threads are resolved after publication.
Three older threads remain open: universal obsolete-removal timing,
unconditional nonce-strength wording, and a blanket Vision NativeAOT
claim. Existing implementation/evidence constraints are explained in
their inline replies. The two-level TOCs remain as requested.

## Validation

- `git diff --check` and staged diff checks: passed. The untouched
upstream AutoID NodeSet retains its provenance bytes, including two
existing license-header trailing spaces.
- `.\.azurepipelines\validate-migration-plugin.ps1`: passed; 15 bundled
migration documents and manifests synchronized.
- Documentation/path validation: **101** documents retain two rendered
TOC levels (**2,228** entries), with idempotent formatting. **52** new
relative links and their anchors passed exact-case checks. No tracked
references to the old guide/sample paths remain. Both relocated
provider-contract sections are preserved in the destination.
- `dotnet sln UA.slnx list`: passed; shows the renamed Di/ISA95 projects
and the existing FluentApi/Lds/PubSub projects. Updated solution and
pump ProjectReference paths also passed exact-case existence checks.
- Latest focused commands, run from the repository root:

```powershell
# Passed: 61 channel send-order and reconnect tests.
dotnet test tests\Opc.Ua.Core.Tests\Opc.Ua.Core.Tests.csproj -p:CustomTestTarget=net10.0 --filter 'FullyQualifiedName~UaSCBinaryChannelSendOrderTests|FullyQualifiedName~TcpReconnectKeyAgreementTests' --verbosity minimal

# Passed: 5 pump datasheet tests; builds the renamed pump sample.
dotnet test tests\Opc.Ua.Di.Tests\Opc.Ua.Di.Tests.csproj -p:CustomTestTarget=net10.0 --filter 'FullyQualifiedName~PumpDatasheetConformanceTests' --verbosity minimal

# Passed: 4 repository NodeSet path/round-trip tests, including the moved pump models.
dotnet test tests\Opc.Ua.Types.Tests\Opc.Ua.Types.Tests.csproj -p:CustomTestTarget=net10.0 --filter 'FullyQualifiedName~RepositorySourceSurvivesSerializedLinkedPartitionsAsync' --verbosity minimal

# Passed: build, zero warnings/errors.
dotnet build samples\ISA95\MinimalIsa95Server\MinimalIsa95Server.csproj -p:CustomTestTarget=net10.0 -f net10.0 --verbosity minimal

# Passed: dependent sample-test project build, zero warnings/errors.
dotnet build tests\Opc.Ua.WotCon.Samples.Tests\Opc.Ua.WotCon.Samples.Tests.csproj -p:CustomTestTarget=net10.0 -f net10.0 --verbosity minimal
```

Earlier focused integration checks passed 2,620 tests across AutoID,
event queues/scheduling, source generation, MCP/package profiles and
WoT. Both reviewed Mermaid diagrams rendered locally without network
access. These checks are not a full solution run.

The full solution has **not** been rerun for this review. Earlier
`dotnet test UA.slnx -p:CustomTestTarget=net10.0 --verbosity quiet` did
not pass: three AOT projects rejected VSTest and 20 Vision tests failed
during graphics initialization with `OutOfMemoryException`. Remaining
long-running tests were stopped at the user's request. A focused Vision
rerun passed 558 tests and reproduced those 20 failures. The earlier
`dotnet test UA.slnx -p:CustomTestTarget=net48 --verbosity quiet` was
blocked by the former SDK pin and was not retried after the policy
change. The user approved proceeding with those limitations documented;
current remote CI is not claimed green.

## Related Issues

- Follow-up #4842 tracks the requested 2.0.2+ benchmark/tuning and
diagnostic-tool documentation refresh. #4841 supplies documentation and
earlier results, not all newly requested measurements.
- #4758 explains the conversion guide's earlier consolidation; the
current provider contracts are now consolidated into
`WotNodeSetConversion.md`.
- #4839 supplies the reviewed API corrections; #4843 supplies the
updated CTT issue record.
- The original prose cleanup and SDK policy were user-requested without
a source issue. No new runtime architecture is introduced by these
documentation edits.

Wolfgang Colsman fc0687a2dc Source generator: a NodeSet2 Variable without a Value has a null Value (#4798)
# Description

A Variable or VariableType in a NodeSet2 that has no Value element has a
null Value (OPC 10000-6 F.5); the runtime NodeSet2 importer loads it
that
way. The source generator initialized such a node with the default value
of its DataType instead ((int)0, (double)0, ...), so a server built from
the generated code reported values the model never declared.

The NodeSet2 importer now records that the node declares no Value
(NodeSetValueIsNull), the flag follows the node into the merged instance
hierarchy, and the node state generator emits Variant.Null for it when
no
value was merged in from elsewhere. ModelDesign inputs, where a missing
DefaultValue implies the DataType default, are unchanged.

The tests generate a DI-style NodeSet2 together with the DI NodeSet2 and
check the generated values of a type's InstanceDeclaration, of an
instance's children with and without a Value, and of a VariableType.

Marc Schier 724757122b Add recycling simulator and plastics/rubber companion packages (#4772)
# Description

Add a generic, company-neutral recycling simulation sample and reusable
plastics/rubber companion-model packages. One durable causal coordinator
and ten separately launched OPC UA process views provide deterministic
material balances, finite buffers, genealogy, utilities, quality
holds/disposition, authenticated controls and crash recovery. Process
views consume committed state instead of running independent
simulations.

Real companion-model equipment instances use DI/Machinery/AMB discovery,
Machine Vision, Pumps/Scales, granulate drying, extrusion, filtration
and pelletizing. Vendor/process extensions remain sample-local.
Connectors and WoT conversion are out of scope. **External
source-contract parity and complete deployment qualification are not
claimed complete.**

The sample and managed tests target **.NET 8, 9 and 10**. The
consolidated [recycling guide](samples/Recycling/README.md) explains the
actual composition, simulation, observation paths and exposed data; the
application-directory README points to that guide.

Typed client member extensions are emitted at build time through the
default-false `ModelSourceGeneratorClientAccessorsOnly` opt-in.
Extrusion uses it for all twelve parts instead of checked-in generated
C# and a Python generator. The shared client runtime retains typed
values, quality, timestamps and streaming behavior.

### Package layout

Six packages contain fourteen models in two model-producing assemblies:

| Specifications | Model | Typed client | Server runtime |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| OPC 40083 and OPC 40082-6 | `Opc.Ua.PlasticsRubber` |
`Opc.Ua.PlasticsRubber.Client` | `Opc.Ua.PlasticsRubber.Server` |
| OPC 40084 parts 1–12 | `Opc.Ua.Extrusion` | `Opc.Ua.Extrusion.Client`
| `Opc.Ua.Extrusion.Server` |

NuGet IDs use the `OPCFoundation.NetStandard.` prefix. All six packages
are registered in `.azurepipelines/expected-packages.txt` and the
generated preview-pack solution. Granulate-drying code lives in
`GranulateDrying` folders in the PlasticsRubber projects; extrusion uses
per-part folders. There are no standalone granulate-drying or per-part
extrusion packages. Published model identities and CLR namespaces remain
distinct and unchanged.

The common 1.03 interface is independently authored on the explicitly
MIT-licensed 1.02 implementation basis; the official 1.03 XML is not
redistributed. The other imported models retain their individual MIT
notices. All 42 pinned model, identifier and basis files retain their
manifest-backed bytes, including their staged Git blobs. No formal
companion certification is claimed; the disputed Filter profile is not
advertised.
