# Description Stacked on #4650. Until that is merged, this PR also shows its commits; the six commits of this PR start after `fix(server): keep conformance unit aggregation idempotent and ordered with registrations`. This adds OPC 10000-110 Asset Management Basics 1.01.1 (`http://opcfoundation.org/UA/AMB/`) as a companion SDK, in the pattern of the DI, Machinery, Pumps and Scales packages. The tracking issue #4649 describes the scope, the design and the open questions. In short: | Package | Content | |---|---| | `Opc.Ua.AMB` | the model generated by the source generator from the unmodified NodeSet, plus the contracts server and client share (`AssetFaultSeverity`, `AssetLocationKind`, `MaintenanceStateKind`, `DocumentationLinkProperties`) | | `Opc.Ua.AMB.Server` | a sidecar node manager next to the owner of the Device Integration address space (`AddOpcUaDi`, `AddMachinery`, `AddPumps` or `AddScales`), the asset registry `IAssetManagement` with a fluent builder, `AddAssetManagement()` hosting, memory and file system stores, the AMB conformance units and server facet | | `Opc.Ua.AMB.Client` | `AmbClient`: discovery, identification, health alarm and maintenance streams, documentation links, locations, structure and snapshots, plus `AddAssetManagementClient()` | **Sidecar.** An asset stays in the node manager that owns it. Everything AMB adds to it (`DeviceHealth`, health alarms, maintenance conditions, the DocumentationLinks AddIn, AssetId and the other properties) is created there. The AMB node manager serves the AMB model, the alias categories `Assets`, `AssetsByProductInstanceUri` and `AssetsByAssetId` below `0:Aliases`, the location hierarchies below `0:Locations` and the server-specific alarm and condition types. Owners register assets with the shared registry from their setup, in either startup order. **Implemented conformance units** (Table 54): Asset Identification, Configurable Asset Identification, Discovery by ProductInstanceUri and by AssetId, Health Status Base, Alarms, Root Causes and Alarm Categories, Version Information, Operation Counters (inspected only; AMB defines no counters), DocumentationLinks Base, Edit Base and Edit Advanced, Requirements, Capabilities, Classification, Current and Future Maintenance Activities, Local Time, the three location properties and both location object hierarchies, Sub-assets and Asset relations. The two history units (Health Tracking, Past Maintenance Activities) are not part of this PR. `docs/AMB.md` has the matrix with the rule the server applies for each unit and whether a test checks it over a session. **Dependency on #4650.** The health alarms and maintenance conditions are created through `CreateAlarm<TState>`, and the conformance units follow the registered assets through the recomputation in `ConformanceUnitsManager`. ## Changes Six commits, each building on its own: 1. **`feat(amb)`: model package** (`src/Opc.Ua.AMB/`, about 2.4k lines, of which the NodeSet and the two identifier tables are 1.6k). - The NodeSet is the publication from `UA-Nodeset/latest/AMB`, byte for byte (git blob `21f9475b646e9c5508171277ffe5b74edbeb0a58`). `.gitattributes` checks it out with LF endings, because a test pins its SHA-256. - The published identifier table is vendored unchanged; a derived table pins the symbol-to-NodeId mapping, and the generator fails the build when they disagree. `tools/nodesets/README.md` documents the one new kind of renamed symbol (top-level instances below `0:Aliases` and `0:Locations`). 2. **`feat(amb)`: server package** (`src/Opc.Ua.AMB.Server/`, about 10.7k lines). Node manager, registry and builders, discovery, health, maintenance (`MaintenanceEventStateMachine` with all transitions), documentation links, locations, version information, classification (IRDI dictionary entries below `Server/Dictionaries`) and structure, stores, conformance evaluation, hosting. Log messages use the EventId block 8300 to 8379, after Pumps (8100) and Scales (8200). 3. **`feat(amb)`: client package** (`src/Opc.Ua.AMB.Client/`, about 3.0k lines). Calls AddLink and RemoveLink through the generated `DocumentationLinksTypeClient`. 4. **`test(amb)`: test suite** (`tests/Opc.Ua.AMB.Tests/`, 163 tests, about 8.8k lines; commit 6 adds one more). 5. **`docs(amb)`: guide and samples**: `docs/AMB.md`, links from `README.md`, `docs/README.md`, `docs/Samples.md` and `docs/AliasNames.md`; `samples/AMB/AmbServer` (AMB next to `AddMachinery`: two DI devices and a Machinery press as assets, with a simulation) and `samples/AMB/AmbClient`. The sample server listens on 62553, which no other sample uses. 6. **`feat(amb)`: tell the links users added from the links of the manufacturer.** OPC 10000-110 gives a client no way to see which links `RemoveLink` accepts (§10.5.4: only those `AddLink` created). As §10.5.1 lets vendors add metadata Properties to the links, the server gives every link `AddLink` created, and every such link restored after a restart, the `Boolean` Property `UserLink` (`true`), qualified with its namespace of server-specific types, with a NodeId derived from the persisted link identifier; declared links carry none, and `RemoveLink` deletes it with the link. `DocumentationLinkRecord` gets the additive `IsUserLink`, which `ReadDocumentationLinksAsync` fills with one Browse over all links and one Read of the markers found (comparing the name only, as the namespace is configurable; `false` for a server that does not mark links). The name is shared as `DocumentationLinkProperties.UserLink`. `UA.slnx` and `.azurepipelines/expected-packages.txt` get the new projects and packages in the commit that adds them. All projects target `net48;net8.0;net9.0;net10.0` through the repository properties (`LibTargetFrameworks`, `TestsTargetFrameworks`, `AppTargetFrameworks`); `IsAotCompatible` and `PublishAot` are set from net10.0 on, as in the other companion projects. ## Tests - **`Opc.Ua.AMB.Tests`: 164 tests**, most of them against a hosted server over real client sessions: - the model: the SHA-256 of the NodeSet and the generator behaviours AMB is the first companion model to rely on; - each building block in-process and over a session: discovery through every category with NodeVersion and model change events, AssetId writes, health alarms and maintenance activities through all transitions with acknowledgement, AddLink and RemoveLink, locations and structure, the advertised conformance units and the facet; - a restart with the file system stores (links and AssetId survive); - the `UserLink` marker: present on an added link only, the same NodeId after a restart, removed with `RemoveLink`, and `IsUserLink` on the client in the snapshot, after `AddLink`, after a restart and after `RemoveLink`; - composition with `AddOpcUaDi` (both startup orders), `AddPumps` and `AddMachinery`; - `AmbClient` end to end against a hosted server, including a Machinery machine as an asset. - **Results (macOS, local):** 164 passed / 0 failed on net10.0 and on net8.0. .NET Framework is covered by the fork CI's Windows legs. - **Coverage** of the three AMB assemblies (coverlet with `tests/coverlet.runsettings.xml`, net10.0, generated `*.g.cs`, `*TypeClient` proxies and `*Log` classes excluded): lines 93.9 % (4890 of 5206), branches 84.0 % (1294 of 1539); model 100 %, client 94.5 %, server 93.4 %. - **Build:** the three packages, the tests and the two samples build without warnings for net48, net8.0, net9.0 and net10.0; `UA.slnx` builds in Release (its warnings are all in files this PR does not touch, as on master). `dotnet format` (whitespace, style, analyzers with `--severity info`) reports nothing on the 95 changed C# files. - **Samples:** `AmbServer` and `AmbClient` ran against each other on net10.0: the client discovered the three assets, printed their snapshots and the location hierarchies, added and removed a documentation link and streamed alarms and maintenance. - Fork CI (full matrix incl. macOS) and CodeQL: green on the same five package commits before the rebase onto the current #4650 head — [CI run 37144486107](https://github.com/biancode/UA-.NETStandard/actions/runs/37144486107), [CodeQL run 37144487873](https://github.com/biancode/UA-.NETStandard/actions/runs/37144487873). The run on the current head (rebased, plus the user-link commit; AMB tests 164/164 locally on net10.0) is in progress: [CI run 37203517457](https://github.com/biancode/UA-.NETStandard/actions/runs/37203517457). ## Notes for review - **Size.** About 26.8k lines, larger than each of the companion PRs #4577 to #4580. Without changes to the code it splits into the model, server and server tests, and the client, end-to-end tests, samples and docs on top; the issue asks which you prefer. - **Interfaces on types.** §9.4.1 and §12.1 ask for alarm and condition types that implement `IRootCauseIndicationType` and `IMaintenanceEventType`. The server creates subtypes of the DI alarm types in its own type namespace (`urn:opcua-netstandard:amb:types`); `UseServerDefinedAlarmTypes = false` uses `HasInterface` on the instance instead, and then does not report the units that need the type-level interfaces. - **Conformance unit names** follow Tables 54 to 56; the profile database has no AMB entries yet. The QualifiedNames are in namespace 0, as DI and Machinery publish theirs (question 5 in the issue). - **Generator gap.** Children a NodeSet gives to a top-level instance (here the `NodeVersion` properties of the alias categories) get no identifier constants. The fix changes the identifiers of other generated models, the reference server's among them, so it is not part of this PR; `AmbModelTests.NodeVersionHasNoIdentifierConstant` records it and fails once the generator emits the constants. - **net48.** The code that the SDK so far only built for .NET 8 and later uses the `NET5_0_OR_GREATER` pattern of `JsonEncoder` for `Enum.IsDefined` and API forms that .NET Framework has (`string.Format`, `Guid.ToString(format, provider)`); the tests use a small async file helper instead of `File.WriteAllTextAsync`. - **User links.** The `UserLink` Property is metadata of this server, not an AMB name: commit 6 explains why and how a client uses it. Changed lines of that commit covered: 69/70 (the one line left is the loop continuation for a link that has other Properties but no marker). - **Known limitations** are listed in the guide: the `DeviceHealth` SourceTimestamp across a restart, removing optional maintenance members once set, `PatchIdentifiers`, locations only at the deepest level, and the history units. ## Related Issues - Part of #4649 - Stacked on #4650 ## Checklist - [x] I have signed the [CLA](https://opcfoundation.org/license/cla/ContributorLicenseAgreementv1.0.pdf) and read the [CONTRIBUTING](https://github.com/OPCFoundation/UA-.NETStandard/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) doc. - [x] I have added tests that prove my fix is effective or that my feature works and increased code coverage. - [x] I have added all necessary documentation. - [x] I have verified that my changes do not introduce (new) build or analyzer warnings. - [ ] I ran **all** tests locally using the **UA.slnx** solution against at least .net **framework** and .net **10**, and all passed.

NodeSet vendoring helpers
derive-identifier-table.py
Derives a source-generator-compatible identifier table (*.NodeIds.csv) from a
vendored NodeSet2 document and the OPC Foundation's published table.
The published table's numeric ids and node classes are authoritative, but its
symbolic names follow the UA-ModelCompiler's conventions, which differ from the
ones this repository's model source generator derives in
NodeSetToModelDesign.ImportSymbolicName / BuildSymbolicId. Feeding the
published table to the generator as a ModelSourceGeneratorIdentifierFile
therefore fails with MODELGEN025. Four differences occur in practice:
| Published | Generated | Why |
|---|---|---|
Server_Namespaces_http___…_ |
http___…_ |
the publication qualifies the namespace-metadata object with its server path; the NodeSet's own SymbolicName does not |
X_ControlChannel |
X_ControlChannel_Placeholder |
a <Placeholder> BrowseName maps to Name_Placeholder |
DefaultBinary |
RGBWDataType_Encoding_DefaultBinary |
encoding nodes are qualified with the data type they encode |
Aliases_Assets_AssetsByAssetId |
AssetsByAssetId |
the publication prefixes a top-level instance with the path of the objects organizing it, down from a base-namespace object (OPC 10000-110 AMB: 0:Aliases, 0:Locations); the generator starts the symbolic id at the instance, because organized nodes are no children |
The table guards the symbols the generator derives, not the identifier constants
it emits. Two kinds of valid rows have no constant in Variables /
VariableIds: the entries of the type dictionaries
(TypeDictionary_BinarySchema_<DataType>), and the children of a top-level
instance that its type does not declare mandatory, such as a child the NodeSet
adds to an instance on its own (AMB's AssetsByProductInstanceUri_NodeVersion).
Run it once per vendored model and keep both files:
python3 tools/nodesets/derive-identifier-table.py \
src/Opc.Ua.IA/Model/Opc.Ua.IA.NodeSet2.xml \
src/Opc.Ua.IA/Model/Opc.Ua.IA.Upstream.NodeIds.csv \
src/Opc.Ua.IA/Model/Opc.Ua.IA.NodeIds.csv
*.Upstream.NodeIds.csv is the unmodified publication and is deliberately kept
out of <AdditionalFiles>, so the two can be diffed to review exactly what the
derivation changed — the same convention src/Opc.Ua.ISA95 uses.
The script exits non-zero when a published row disagrees with the NodeSet on the numeric id or node class. That is an upstream defect rather than a naming convention and needs a documented repair in the vendored NodeSet, not a silent rewrite of the table.
