End-to-end run on the live ZB galaxy with mxaccessgw on
http://localhost:5120: 14 passed / 1 skipped / 0 failed in 18m53s.
PR 7.2's matrix-gate condition met. Three resolution patches in this
commit; the matrix doc records the new state.
1. Discoverer: defensive `[]` array-suffix strip
----------------------------------------------------
The gw's GalaxyRepository.cs:173-175 appends `[]` to
array-typed full_tag_reference values, but MxAccess COM
IInstance.AddItem doesn't accept `[]`-suffixed addresses.
GalaxyDiscoverer.StripArraySuffix removes the suffix client-side
so SubscribeBulk / Read / Write paths see the canonical form.
Tracked in mxaccessgw/requirements-array-suffix-fix.md; this
workaround is removed when the gw fix lands.
2. WriteByClassification: pin status class, not exact code
---------------------------------------------------------
Legacy MxAccessGalaxyBackend.WriteValuesAsync flat-maps every
failure to BadInternalError (0x80020000); mxgw's
GatewayGalaxyDataWriter.TranslateReply uses
MxStatusProxy.RawDetectedBy to distinguish gw-layer faults
(BadCommunicationError, 0x80050000) from MxAccess HRESULT
faults. Both yield Bad-status — the parity invariant is the
status class (Good/Uncertain/Bad), not the exact code. Both
write tests now use AssertStatusClassMatches; legacy mapping
retires alongside GalaxyProxyDriver in PR 7.2.
3. BrowseAndReadParity Read scenario: drop CLR-type assertion
------------------------------------------------------------
Legacy returns the raw VARIANT (e.g. byte[]) for an attribute
that hasn't received its first value cycle from MxAccess yet,
while mxgw returns the typed value (Single, Int32, etc.). Once
a real value is written or scanned, both converge. Pinning
CLR-type equality across the uninitialized window adds noise
without a real parity invariant — the StatusCode-class
assertion already covers the "did the read succeed" question.
The test still pins StatusCode-class parity per scenario.
4. Galaxy.ParityMatrix.md — first-rig results captured
-----------------------------------------------------
Per-row status flipped from "n/a unverified" to actual
green / yellow / deferred outcomes from this run. Four new
accepted-deltas added (read-value CLR type, write-status code
mapping, single-platform ScanState scope, gw `[]` suffix
workaround), bringing the total to nine. Outstanding deltas
section flipped to "none as of 2026-04-30."

Both backends route a write through the same path keyed off the attribute's
SecurityClassification, so a single write request must produce the same
StatusCode on each:
- FreeAccess_or_Operate_write_returns_same_StatusCode_on_both_backends
picks the first numeric FreeAccess/Operate attribute and writes 0.0.
- Configure_class_write_routes_through_secured_path_on_both_backends
picks a Configure/Tune attribute, writes through the secured path,
asserts StatusCode parity (the test doesn't care whether the write
succeeds — only that both backends produce the same outcome).
