TimeAverage/Total: Uncertain when a Bad value is skipped, an Uncertain value
is used, the value is extrapolated or the interval is not covered; an
interval wholly inside an outage bridges (Uncertain); Total integrates only
the covered part. TimeAverage2/Total2 stop at the end of the data (Partial,
then BadNoData). PercentGood/PercentBad become duration-based and move to
the time-weighted family (now subject to MaxTimeWeightedRawRows). Reverse
reads set Partial on the interval holding the latest sample when nothing
follows (SDK m_startOfData). Parity tests gain end-of-data and outage
datasets; pre-existing #680 masks removed.
New AggregateFamily.TimeWeighted serving TimeAverage, TimeAverage2, Total,
Total2 and Interpolative, evaluated by the shared Sql.Common
TimeWeightedAggregator for both SQL backends (identical results by
construction). HistoryAggregateType gains TimeAverage2 + Total2 (appended);
OtOpcUaNodeManager.MapAggregate maps their NodeIds. Gateway's mapper already
refuses unknown defined members => BadAggregateNotSupported per node.
Semantics (server defaults, client AggregateConfiguration ignored):
TreatUncertainAsBad=false, PercentDataBad=PercentDataGood=100,
UseSlopedExtrapolation=false. Sloped for Double/Int64, stepped for Boolean;
a usable sample followed by a Bad one is held up to the outage (AtTime rule);
stepped Uncertain extrapolation past the last sample. TimeAverage/Total use
interpolated bounding (bridge outages); TimeAverage2/Total2 exclude Bad time.
Bounding values: latest usable + latest any before start, first any + first
usable at/after end (four TOP 1 / LIMIT 1 seeks).
CLIENT-VISIBLE: Total on SqlServer/QuestDb was SUM of samples; it is now the
time-weighted integral (TimeAverage x interval seconds), matching Gateway's
Integral. Release note in docs/Historian.md.
Trade-off (deviation from the preferred hybrid pushdown, allowed by the
design): the time-weighted family is NOT pushed down. Each read streams the
window's rows plus the four bounds (SQL Server: one five-result-set batch;
QuestDB: bounds UNION ALL + window select) into the C# evaluator. Network is
O(samples in window), memory O(buckets). Writing the per-segment
interpolation/edge splitting twice in two SQL dialects and keeping them
bit-identical was judged the bigger risk; this also makes the QuestDB
lag/lead spike moot.
Tests: 35 hand-computed TimeWeightedAggregator unit cases (each of 10
implementation mutations goes red); served-aggregate pin 13 -> 17;
conformance sparse fixture (intervals wider and narrower than sample gaps)
+ an outage straddling both window edges (each of the four SQL seeks
disabled in turn goes red); node-manager NodeId mapping test.
Moves the database-independent logic of the SQL Server historian backend into a new
shared library for the upcoming QuestDB backend (#666): status codes and bits, value/column
mapping, StoredSample + quality clamp, the AtTime and aggregate evaluators, BucketPlan,
LiveWritePreparer and HistoryUpdatePlanner (both with a resolutionTicks parameter, default 1),
tag-name rules, the bootstrap failure cache, health counters, alarm event ids, the event
continuation and severity clamp. The SQL Server backend now calls it; its T-SQL, TVP
builders, connection, bootstrapper and catalog stay.
Tests: StatusCodeOracleTests, ValueWriterPrepareTests, the column half of SampleRowMapperTests
and ProcessedReadTests.Every_enum_member_is_either_served_or_refused move to the new
Sql.Common.Tests under the same names. SqlServer integration tests get mechanical renames
only. Test-name set across the three projects is identical to the baseline (160 tests).
