FOCAS Docker simulator — focas-mock + shim DLL

Hardware-free FOCAS fixture for OtOpcUa's integration test matrix. Runs the vendored focas-mock Python server under Docker and pairs it with the shim DLL that masquerades as Fwlib64.dll inside the .NET test process.

The shim bridges the binary ABI (C __stdcall exports with FOCAS struct shapes) to the mock's newline-delimited JSON protocol. OtOpcUa's FocasSimFixture seeds per-test state by sending mock_load_profile + mock_patch admin calls on the same socket. Tests assert the managed driver sees the seeded values through its normal P/Invoke path.

Running

Pick one compose profile (they all publish 8193 — only one at a time):

docker compose -f Docker/docker-compose.yml --profile thirtyone up -d
dotnet test tests/Drivers/ZB.MOM.WW.OtOpcUa.Driver.FOCAS.IntegrationTests
docker compose -f Docker/docker-compose.yml --profile thirtyone down

Available profiles + their focas-mock target:

compose --profile	focas-mock profile	Covers
thirtyone / thirty / thirtytwo	fwlib30i64	30i / 31i / 32i series
sixteen	FWLIB64	16i / 18i / 21i legacy family
zerod / zerof / zeromf / zerotf	fwlib0iD64	0i-D / 0i-F / 0i-MF / 0i-TF
powermotion	fwlib0DN64	Power Motion i
ethernet	fwlibe64	Ethernet-variant DLL
ncguide	fwlibNCG64	NC Guide PC simulator

What this covers — and what it doesn't

Covered:

• All 10 FOCAS functions FwlibNative.cs P/Invokes
• Read-after-write round-trip for parameters, macros, PMC ranges
• PMC bit read-modify-write path (via the pmc_wrpmcrng seam)
• IAlarmSource raise + clear transitions (via mock_schedule_alarms)
• Per-series profile selection — tests can pin one and assert series-gated behaviour

Not covered (still hardware-gated):

• Real FOCAS2 TCP wire protocol (this is a JSON mock; the shim hides the real protocol entirely)
• CNC-specific firmware quirks (position scaling across power cycles, edit-mode session locks, MTB custom screens)
• Concurrent-read behaviour on the real Fwlib64.dll — the shim is single-threaded per connection

See docs/drivers/FOCAS-Test-Fixture.md for the full coverage map.

Skip behaviour

FocasSimFixture probes the mock at collection init time:

• Mock unreachable → tests skip with the compose-up command to run
• Mock reachable but shim DLL not loaded → tests skip with a pointer at Shim/build.ps1
• Both available → tests run

This lets the same test assembly be green on a fresh CI box without docker, green on a dev box with just the docker compose up, and exercise the full wire path when the shim is built.
