Component Improvements

OPC UA PubSub

• If a network message parsing error occurs, it is now reported through the dataset message event/callback (only the first occurrence on a subscription, before a dataset receive timeout, is reported).

Configuration and Instrumentation

• Enhanced event tracing in OPC UA PubSub.

Tools and Online Services

• Added system networkInformation listInterfaces command to OpcCmd Utility and UADemoPublisher. The command shows information that describes all network interfaces on the local computer.
• Added system networkInformation pingTest command to OpcCmd Utility and UADemoPublisher. The command tests whether a remote computer is accessible over the network.
• Extended !diagnostics sources setSwitchValue and !diagnostics switches setValue commands with options that allow setting values of multiple switches at once, using various filters.

OpcCmd Utility

• The uaSubscriber subscribeDataSet command now collects statistics about number of datasets received (from each combination of publisher Id, writer group and dataset writer), and displays a table with the dataset data counts before the command finishes.

Demo Servers and Publishers

• It is now possible to run the UADemoPublisher in interactive mode, and use the publish command to start publishing.
• Added --ManualDataSetClock|-mdsc option to UADemoPublisher: Allows to use manually set date&time in simulated datasets, making their contents constant.
• The UADemoPublisher is now also available as ClickOnce installation (for Windows).
