Hello Hans-Uwe

TypeDictionary.init() method is called when an UaClient connects to the Server and initTypeDictionaryOnConnect has been set to true, which is also its default value. If you attempt to call TypeDictionary.init() method manually from your code after it has already been called, it won’t do anything as the TypeDictionary has already been initialized. Instead, you need to call TypeDictionary.refresh(), which clears old definitions and reads new ones from the Server.

If you think that the Server isn’t ready to provide a proper TypeDictionary when you’re connecting to it, you should set initTypeDictionaryOnConnect to false with UaClient.setInitTypeDictionaryOnConnect(boolean initTypeDictionaryOnConnect) and call TypeDictionary.init() when the Server is ready and later TypeDictionary.refresh() if the TypeDictionary needs to be updated. This will save you the time it would take to initialize the TypeDictionary.

BR,
Matti
