From 3525653c2b95577fcdddc5d741200270dc8f8ac9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joseph Doherty Date: Mon, 22 Jun 2026 06:03:38 -0400 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] fix(grpc): extended-property read parser + GetConnectionStatus over gRPC MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit - HistorianTagExtendedPropertyProtocol.ParseResponse: fix the multi-property/ multi-group response shape captured live from the 2023 R2 server. The server returns one group per property (the tag name repeats), each propertyCount=1, and a uint16 searchability-flags trailer per property (0x0003 built-in, 0x0001 user- added) — NOT the single-byte group trailer the old model assumed, which drifted one byte per group and threw "expected 0x09 found 0x01" on any buffer with more than one property. Now reads the per-property uint16 trailer (tolerates a legacy 1-byte tail). Fixes read-back on both WCF and gRPC. Adds GetTagExtendedPropertiesRaw for future captures. - HistorianGrpcStatusClient.GetConnectionStatusAsync (plan #5): synthesize connection status from a measured gRPC handshake (OpenConnection yielding a storage-session GUID => connected), mirroring the WCF synthesize-from-probe approach. Routed in Historian2020ProtocolDialect on UseGrpc (the WCF path used the MDAS binding, which can't reach the gRPC port). - HistorianGrpcSqlClient: record the negative plan-#4 result — a HistoryService. RegisterTags prime does NOT clear the server-side CSrvDbConnection fault (tried live on both 0x402/0x401); the op stays bounded behind ProtocolEvidenceMissingException.
