Hello,
i’m using the Java SDK Evaluation- 2.0.0-194.
I wanted to try the codegenerator. So i downloaded the UaModeler an created an xml file based on my informationmodel (very small, only 7 nodes).
Then i followed the readme.md from the folder codegen. I copied the xml file into the codegen folder. Then i edited the codegen.properties file.
Then i ran the codegen-2.0.0-standalone with all the necessary Parameters.
Now i dont’t know what i’m doing wrong?
My result is: the impl- folder is empty, in the intf- folder i have only 1 file InormationModel.java.
Tanks

Did you define types or only objects and variables in your information model?

I defined Variables with th UaModeler. I think the Modeler automatically creates the types?
I created for example two AnalogItemTypes.
What do i have to create with the Modeler, to make the codegen understand it?
Thanks.

You need code generation to convert the UA type definitions to the respective Java classes, which you can then use in application development.
If you only define instances (objects and variables), you can just load the information model XML to your application to get the instances in the address space.

Thanks a lot.
Now, since i have created types instead of objects the codegen outputs classes.
I will do some testings and read the dokumentation.
up to this point many thanks.

Hi,
i have problems creating a Server and using the generated code. Do you have a tutorial, how to integrate the generated code into a Server and how to create a server?
Thanks

That’s explained in the codegen/Readme.md and ReadmeSample.md files.

Thanks…
I followed the instuctions in the ReadmeSample.md. Now i have a question:
Do i have to load the XML file again? I mean i registered the created InformationModel. I thougt this should be enough to be able to create instances?

Yes, you need to load the XML to read the type definitions into the address space. Then you can instantiate objects based on the generated Java classes in your application.

Hi,
i’m trying to make one of the variableTypes created by the generator historising.I tried to use the class MyHistorian from the SDK, but that doesen’t work, because the function addVariableHistory needs a UaVariableNode as parameter. So, how can i historise my custom created Variables?
Thanks.

MyHistorian is just an example. You should create your own according to your own needs, but you can take that one as a basis.
All variable nodes generated by the code generator should descend from UaVariableNode, though, so it should work for those variables as well. You cannot add a variable type, you need to add variable instances.

Ok,
i will try it.

Hi,
i still have the same problem. My generated Class extends from BaseDataVariableType. I create an instance from that type. What do i have to do now, to make that instance hitorizing? The funktion addVariableHistory does not accept that instance as parameter. Could you please post an example of how to create an instance from my generated classes which will be accepted from addVariableHistory?
Thanks..

If you have a variable instance of your variable type, you can just add it to the Historian.
Maybe you should show how you are trying to do it, so I can tell what goes wrong.

OK,
first i create an instance of DHT22 in my NodeManager, DHT22 extends BaseDataVariableType. The class DHT22 was created by the codegen.
MyHistorian history = new MyHistorian();
DHT22 dht22;
then i try the following:
public void inithistory() throws StatusException{
getHistoryManager().setListener(history);
dht22.setHistorizing(true);
history.addVariableHistory(dht22);
}
but the funktion addVariableHistory doesent accept dht22, because it is not UaVariableNode.

Ah, OK, I think I get it, now.
DHT22 is the interface type. You must declare the variable as DHT22Node, which is the generated server implementation. It descends from UaVariableNode – whereas DHT22 descends from UaVariable.
The NodeBuilder or NodeManagerUaNode.createInstance() will create it as a DHT22Node anyway.
The usage of the interface vs. the class type is not perfectly clear yet in every respect. So you may need to use the class types (XxxNode) in the server for certain things instead of the interface.

OK,
thanks.
Maybe you noticed, that i am not an experienced java developer…
So, thanks for your patience…

No problem. It’s good to get feedback like this, so we can think if the documentation could be improved to make these things easier to understand. I don’t always understand the design at first sight myself either
