Summary | 0004513: Tables with DataType structures should indicate the base datatype, when it exists | ||||
Description | It is confusing that in cases where the DataType has a base type, the table that lists the data type fields does not have any mention of the fact that not just the fields explicitly listed in the table belong to the data type, but also the fields of the base data type. Take, for example, parameters for ReaderGroups. The ReaderGroupDataType is formally defined in Table 32. I got confused by thinking that there are no more members to this structure. But there are also members of the PubSubGroupDataType. To find out, one must read the text around, or the table that follows, and figure out that this is a subtype of PubSubGroupDataType. There are multiple cases like this in Part 14. I could not quickly recall or find similar cases in other parts of the spec, to see how we do that usually. I think at as the second row in the table below the header (third row in total), we should add a row that spans all three columns and says something like "All fields of XXXX DataType defined in XX.", similarly as in the tables with DataType definitions. | ||||

|
The end of the last sentence in the issue description should read "...as in the tables with Type definitions.". |
|
All types are defined following the common conventions in the OPC UA specifications. The table with the structure fields never indicates a base DataType (e.g. Table 32 ReaderGroupDataType Structure). This table only defines the fields. The DataType Node and the type relation is defined in an additional table (e.g. Table 33 – ReaderGroupDataType Definition). |
|
I disagree, for following reasons: |
|
There is not a single table in none of the OPC UA parts that define the base type as part of the table that defines the structure fields. |
|
TBD |
|
Added reference to base type to all description fields of the structure name for all derived structure types. |
|
Agreed to changes in meeting. |
|
This was not fixed for at least DataSetMetaDataType. |
|
Added missing reference to base type of DataSetMetaData: Subtype of DataTypeSchemaHeader defined in OPC 10000-5. |
|
Agreed to changes in Dallas meeting. |
