Basic GDS Feature on Current Server

[vituocgia]

Hello there,
It would be best if we could implement the basic GDS feature for the current server.
Can someone here quickly implement support for this feature?

Thanks!

The demo server does support being managed by a GDS using the push model.

Are you asking about that, or are you asking about implementing your own GDS server?

[kevinherron]

Okay... so there are common GDS types that are part of the default OPC UA namespace, but there is also a separate GDS namespace with types that are required if you implementing the pull model or your own GDS server.

I'll have to add these to Milo or maybe a separate repo/project.

@vituocgia see https://github.com/kevinherron/opc-ua-gds-model, might be enough to get you started.

I am grateful for your effort to verify GDS implementation ...
Do you have any plans to add GDS support for the demo OPC server? It would be best if Eclipse Milo could support GDS as well. For now, I'm researching and adding some functionality. From your point of view, how much effort should we put into adding support for this?
Thanks

No plans to make the demo server a GDS, it’s outside the scope and purpose.

A GDS server is relatively complex and needs to be implemented with care because of the security aspect. I may try to build one as a separate project one day, but I’m too busy right now to consider it further.

Yes, but we should add support to the current Eclipse-Milo, as I’m facing several issues while trying to add GDS feature support. Could you clarify the plan for adding the GDS model and the related support for GDS functionality?
