Internal version number: 5.59

Key changes:

  • Usability improvements



Licensing

  • Improved the licensing error messages. Besides more precise wording, the typical messages now contain the list of (serial numbers of) licenses that were considered but dropped, together with their "release date covered" field, which is frequently the cause for the license not being recognized.

Examples

  • Added pair of examples UAWcfService1 and UAWcfClient1: A simple Web service using WCF technology. Provides a GetData method to read a value of an OPC UA variable. Accompanied by a console-based client code.
  • Added example UAWindowsService1: A Windows Service that subscribes to variables from the OPC UA sample server, and logs their changes into a file.

Documentation and Help

  • Made clear at multiple places that Product Option licenses (such as Excel Option or StreamInsight Option) require base product license first.

COM Components

  • Documentation for all COM objects now consistently contains "Object Creation" section, with syntax for object creation in following languages or tools: C++, Free Pascal, JScript, Object Pascal (Delphi), Perl, PHP, PowerScript, Python, REALbasic (Xojo), Visual Basic (VB 6.), Visual FoxPro, VBA, VBScript, Xbase++.
