# Description - Add isolated NodeState reference images, TypeTable graph snapshots, EncodeableFactory registration forks/views, StringTable mutation versions/private copies, and ServiceMessageContext mapping-holder generation tracking. Reference images are lazy for empty nodes; selected-image clones own independent storage and publication ownership. - Add the complete generic NodeBrowser continuation-dependency capability. This does not implement server browse-history retention, NodeManager read images, or server batch/readiness admission. - Add optional client binding capture for SessionClient, native Session and ManagedSession, with managed-lease/native-channel generation composition. Bindings capture authenticated-session identity, mapping holders/versions and owned endpoint/policy/configuration observations. Replacement, reconnect, mapping ABA and disposal permanently invalidate stale bindings; disposing a binding does not dispose its owner. - Preserve cancellation and master pooled-response ownership: a rejected pooled response is released exactly once; an accepted response remains caller-owned. Keep native transport submission under its replacement gate and completion outside the gate, without routing ordinary unbound requests through binding machinery. - Rename the existing server lookup interface and all actual consumers with minimal hunks; add focused fixtures, generated FileTypeClient usage guidance, and package/transport documentation. **Breaking preview type identity:** the existing 2.0-preview server lookup `Opc.Ua.ISessionBindingProvider` becomes `Opc.Ua.IServerSessionBindingProvider`. Server lookup consumers must update their referenced type and rebuild. This is neither source-compatible nor binary-additive for that preview type. The new client capability is optional and adds no mandatory members to existing ISession/ISessionClient/ITransportChannel contracts. This preview-to-preview rename is documented in SessionBindings/Transports, not in the 1.5-to-2.0 MigrationGuide. **Ownership boundary:** no RequestLifetime changes, certificate-manager/channel-entry adoption, BaseVariableState changes, Method-result feature extraction, NodeManager batch/readiness or browse-history retention, session restoration, registry federation, WoT conversion, or WoT runtime/planners/events. DependencyInjection/ResourceIsolation/index changes are lookup/link closure only. SessionManager's PR hunk changes only its implemented lookup-interface name; newer master public diagnostic masking is not replaced. ## Related Issues _Reference all GitHub issues this PR addresses.

All five received review threads were replied to and resolved after verification. Factory selector installation and target-selection-plus-commit share the root publication gate, with consistent root→image release/capture ordering. TypeTable selector installation and final mutation routing share its existing gate. Native bound channel validity uses volatile observations; the two owned XML defects are corrected. | Requirement | Evidence | |---|---| | Selector installation must not hide TypeTable mutations | `SelectorInstalledDuringNodePreparationReceivesMutation`: old Add routing failed on both TFMs; corrected routing passes on both within **148/148** factory/TypeTable controls | | Selector installation must not race factory commit routing | Static common-root-gate/order proof plus baseline-GREEN `BuilderCapturedBeforeOwnershipUsesSelectedFactory`, `ViewOwnerReleasePreservesRegistrationsAndAllowsReuse`, `ViewOwnerReleaseCanRetryAfterPendingPublication`, `PublicationProtectsPendingAndRetiredFactoryImages` | | Lock-free validity must observe owner transitions | Static volatile-read reasoning plus native `BoundRequestCannotDispatchWhileNativeReplacementIsPendingAsync`, `BoundResponseRejectsInvalidationAfterNativeDispatchAsync`, `BoundClientCannotRetryAcrossFaultedManagedEntryReplacementAsync`: **12/12 each TFM**; Core binding/pooled ownership controls **17/17 each TFM** | | Correct owned XML documentation | “an unmanaged” and one multiline `ReferenceUpdate.Next` summary; scoped whitespace/INFO and build evidence below | Factory controls are **not** claimed as a deterministic factory RED, and public transport controls are **not** claimed as a deterministic weak-memory RED. No private-lock reflection, artificial production seam, or source-name assertion was added. The TypeTable RED uses the real `ILocalNode.NodeClass` callback during node preparation, and both expected RED receipts/TRX were retained. All accepted review runs use the unchanged admitted SDK wrapper, normal project references, sole mutex, one node/no shared compiler, finite resource guards and canonical short-C build outputs. Source hashes were frozen per command and matched the committed bytes afterward. SDK ownership was released **before** commit/push/review replies. No automatic merge was requested. Scoped whitespace passed across the four affected projects. Review INFO classification is **0 owned findings / 13 untouched baseline findings excluded** (whole-file formatter exits 1,1,0,0); no baseline RCS1140/RCS0055 expansion or suppression. The final normal net10 public Client/Core/Types trim/AOT-analyzer closure passed **0 warnings / 0 errors**. This is not a NativeAOT publish/run. <details> <summary>Accepted review command payloads and results</summary> These exact argument payloads were executed through the unchanged guarded SDK wrapper. `$proof` expands to the protected results-directory below. Successful explicit builds of the same source preceded the `--no-build` runs. ```powershell $proof = 'C:\Users\mschier\.copilot\session-state\a3b74048-c52f-4c87-8773-7a46c9ab0087\files\qualification-review-4752' # Exit 0: 148 passed, 0 failed dotnet test tests\Opc.Ua.Types.Tests\Opc.Ua.Types.Tests.csproj -f net48 -p:CustomTestTarget=net48 -p:UseArtifactsOutput=true -p:ArtifactsPath=C:\cp56-a3b7-v2 -nr:false --no-restore --verbosity minimal --filter "FullyQualifiedName~EncodeableFactorySnapshotTests|FullyQualifiedName~TypeTableTests" --logger "trx;LogFileName=review-types-green-net48.trx" --results-directory $proof # Exit 0: 148 passed, 0 failed dotnet test tests\Opc.Ua.Types.Tests\Opc.Ua.Types.Tests.csproj -f net10.0 --no-restore --no-build --filter "FullyQualifiedName~EncodeableFactorySnapshotTests|FullyQualifiedName~TypeTableTests" --logger "trx;LogFileName=review-types-green-net10.trx" --results-directory $proof -p:CustomTestTarget=net10.0 -p:UseArtifactsOutput=true -p:ArtifactsPath=C:\cp56-a3b7-v2 -nr:false --verbosity minimal # The following two per-TFM payloads each exited 0: # Core: 17/17 net48 and 17/17 net10.0; Client: 12/12 net48 and 12/12 net10.0 foreach ($tfm in @('net48', 'net10.0')) { dotnet test tests\Opc.Ua.Core.Tests\Opc.Ua.Core.Tests.csproj -f $tfm --no-restore --no-build --filter "FullyQualifiedName~SessionBindingResponseTests|FullyQualifiedName~SessionBindingContextTests" --logger "trx;LogFileName=review-actual-core-green-$tfm.trx" --results-directory $proof -p:CustomTestTarget=$tfm -p:UseArtifactsOutput=true -p:ArtifactsPath=C:\cp56-a3b7-v2 -nr:false --verbosity minimal dotnet test tests\Opc.Ua.Client.Tests\Opc.Ua.Client.Tests.csproj -f $tfm --no-restore --no-build --filter "FullyQualifiedName~BoundRequestCannotDispatchWhileNativeReplacementIsPendingAsync|FullyQualifiedName~BoundResponseRejectsInvalidationAfterNativeDispatchAsync|FullyQualifiedName~BoundClientCannotRetryAcrossFaultedManagedEntryReplacementAsync" --logger "trx;LogFileName=review-actual-client-green-$tfm.trx" --results-directory $proof -p:CustomTestTarget=$tfm -p:UseArtifactsOutput=true -p:ArtifactsPath=C:\cp56-a3b7-v2 -nr:false --verbosity minimal } # Exit 0: 0 warnings, 0 errors dotnet build src\Opc.Ua.Client\Opc.Ua.Client.csproj -f net10.0 -p:CustomTestTarget=net10.0 -p:UseArtifactsOutput=true -p:ArtifactsPath=C:\cp56-a3b7-v2 -nr:false --no-restore --verbosity minimal ``` The six expanded GREEN commands, exact results/TRX hashes and two expected RED commands are retained in `qualification-review-4752\qualification-summary.json`, SHA256 `C5E71A4D8D37BAC8803F6DF38B6BCE2B70F3D0AFD5DEC8493FAE9DB440DCFB5A`. Committed/qualified byte identity is in `publication-identity.json`, SHA256 `CD9515FE96703F8B241F2B7B9B71F73EF0FF2626C2C8BCCE40307971A8F8E809`. Per-command raw exits, guards, hashes and reports are retained outside disposable build roots. For each record in the protected `format-inputs.json` (Types/Core/Client libraries and Types.Tests), the recorded Project/Include values expand these exact payloads: ```powershell # Workspace properties recorded with the formatter receipts: $env:CustomTestTarget = 'net10.0' $env:UseArtifactsOutput = 'true' $env:ArtifactsPath = 'C:\cp56-a3b7-v2' # All four exit 0 dotnet format whitespace $Project --no-restore --verify-no-changes --verbosity minimal --include $Include # Exits 1,1,0,0 due only to untouched baseline findings; owned=0, baseline=13 dotnet format $Project --no-restore --severity info --verify-no-changes --verbosity minimal --report "$proof\formats\review-info-$i" --include $Include ``` Initial fresh matrix evidence remains separately identified and unchanged: Types274/Core119/Client151/server137 net10; Types274/Core119/Client151/server135 net48, all passing. Qualification base remains `0dff94bd378e79b8cf1a47e1aaf340f9b4b40048`; the initial published head was `9fee4583`. All 16 initial exact command arrays/results/TRX hashes remain in protected `qualification-v2\qualification-summary.json`, SHA256 `88E10240C20049B59A3401BE007C6528A85DF2F3DCFAF9D11D908CEF2946DA4E`. Failures/incidents remain retained rather than relabeled as success: original disappeared-root historical counts are invalidated; the large-TRX controller DOM-parser failure is preserved separately from accepted streaming receipts; the review argument-array defect/default-D-output controls are preserved but excluded from canonical review qualification. Correctly separated argument rechecks produced the accepted short-C Core/Client receipts. The sole SDK wrapper was not changed. Full UA.slnx, measured coverage increase, CLA verification, NativeAOT publication and current-head/master CI/CodeQL remain unclaimed. Actual merge—not resolved review threads—unlocks Wave B. </details>
Migrating from 1.5.378 to 2.0.x
Version 2.0 introduces a major architectural change from pre-generated code files to runtime source generation and more efficient memory use, with several major breaking changes requiring changes to your applications.
This folder includes all of the 1.5.378 → 2.0 migration content as a set of focused sub-documents so you can read only the parts that affect your application. Start with the Migration sub-doc index below to find the sub-doc that matches the symptom you are seeing.
Automate the migration. Add the
OPCFoundation.NetStandard.Opc.Ua.MigrationAnalyzeranalyzer package to your projects to receive analyzer warnings and one-click fixes for many of the patterns in these sub-docs. The package implements 26 analyzer rules throughUA0030(excludingUA0013,UA0016,UA0017, and the shim-onlyUA0029) across the index below and the cross-cutting guidance in the Migration Guide.UA0029is currently a runtime-shim/manual marker surfaced throughCS0618, not an analyzer. The type-safety subset (UA0002–UA0008,UA0014,UA0019) maps totypes.md.
Pro TIP. Point your favorite coding agent at the
opcua-v20-migrationskill, which knows when to load each sub-doc and runs the codefixer for you.

Migration sub-doc index
Find the row that matches the error / API surface you are dealing with and read only the listed sub-doc. The agent skill uses the same table; loading a single sub-doc keeps the context window small.
