The sibling mxaccessgw repo restructured: clients/dotnet/MxGateway.Client
no longer exists, and the proto contracts moved to a new namespace
(ZB.MOM.WW.MxGateway.Contracts.Proto, was MxGateway.Contracts.Proto). The
driver's source still expects the pre-restructure namespace, so the
broken ProjectReference produced 86 build errors in src/ + 1 in tests/
on master.
Resolution: vendor the last known-good build of MxGateway.Client.dll
(99 KB, May 22) and MxGateway.Contracts.dll (490 KB, May 23) under
src/Drivers/.../Driver.Galaxy/libs/, reference them via <Reference
HintPath=...> in both the driver and its test csproj, and declare the
NuGet packages the dropped ProjectReference was supplying transitively
(Google.Protobuf, Grpc.Core.Api, Grpc.Net.Client,
Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.Abstractions, Polly) at versions matching
the sibling repo's ZB.MOM.WW.MxGateway.Contracts.csproj so binary
compatibility is preserved.
Why this over a source migration:
Source migration would require namespace renames across ~19 driver
files PLUS reimplementing MxGatewayClient / MxGatewaySession /
GalaxyRepositoryClient (~2,200 LoC) — the sibling repo dropped the
client library entirely, keeping only the proto contracts. Vendoring
the last known-good binaries unblocks the build in minutes, freezes
the gateway contract surface at a known-good version, and preserves
the option to migrate properly once the sibling repo decides whether
to restore a client library or hand the work back to us.
libs/README.md documents the unwinding plan (either path closes the
debt: sibling restores a client library, or driver migrates to the new
contracts namespace + reimplements the client wrapper).
Verification:
- dotnet build ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.slnx: 0 errors (was 87).
- Driver.Galaxy unit tests: 245/245 pass.
- Integration tests not run here (require a live mxaccessgw gateway).
