Release notes

• Release date: 2024-07-10
• Changes:
  • Updated the .NET Runtime to v8.0.7 (includes security fixes).
  • Codabix Engine:
    • Synchronous read operations for the same variable nodes that are started within the same node lock are now always combined, if supported by the plugin module.
      This improves predictability in certain cases, for example when using the transfer script with multiple transfers using the same trigger and source nodes.
  • Allen-Bradley Device Plugin:
    • Fixed an issue with the "Check Connection" mechanism (introduced with v1.4.16) which could cause the connection status to show "Connected." even when the connection actually couldn't be established.

  • OPC UA Client Device Plugin:
    • Added setting "Ignore Read During Subscription" which specifies whether the channel worker should ignore read commands for a node (and just return the current node value as result) when a subscription for that node is currently active.
  • SignalR Interface Plugin:
    • Fixed the exception Microsoft.AspNetCore.SignalR.HubException: 'Failed to invoke 'FindNodes' due to an error on the server. HubException: Method does not exist.' which could occur when a client called CodabixClient.ReadNodesAsync().

• Release date: 2024-05-06
• Changes:

  • SQL Exchange Plugin:
    • When browsing a table, nodes in the ColumnsSet folder whose Value Type has been set to Variant-Array (introduced in v1.5.20) will now keep using that type, instead of being changed back to the original Value Type that doesn't allow to read NULL values.
  • REST Interface Plugin:
    • When reading history values, the property receiveTimestamp is now included that returns the receive timestamp of the value.
  • SignalR Interface Plugin:
    • When reading history values, the property receiveTimestamp is now included that returns the receive timestamp of the value.
      Note: When using the Codabix.Web.SignalR NuGet package in a .NET application, this change will require at least version 1.0.0-preview9-240322 in order to be able to read history values.
