rust / build / test / clippy / fmt (push) Has been cancelled
Investigation via examples/asb-relay.rs middleman captured the full
S→C bytes of a working PublishResponse from the .NET probe against
MxDataProvider. Decoder fix verified by regression test against the
captured fixture; one further wire-format gap surfaced and is filed.
Closed in this commit:
1. collect_asbidata_payloads filtered out empty <ASBIData/> elements
so positional payload[N] indexing collapsed when Status was
empty-but-present. The wire form for PublishResponse is:
<Status><ASBIData/></Status> ← empty placeholder
<Values><ASBIData>{bytes}</ASBIData></Values>
Our decoder lost the positional info and read Values as Status,
then panicked on the malformed parse. Fix: always push every
<ASBIData> element (empty or not) so payloads[0]=Status and
payloads[1]=Values stay aligned. New regression test
tests/publish_capture.rs runs the full decode chain over the
captured wire bytes (305-byte frame at
tests/fixtures/publish-response-with-value.bin) and asserts
values.len() == 1.
2. MinimalMonitoredItem.active: Option<bool> + new with_active()
constructor. The .NET reference's MxAsbDataClient.AddMonitoredItems
defaults to active: true (cs:441). Without <Active>true</Active>
on the wire, MxDataProvider treats the subscription as inactive
and Publish polls return empty Values. Both binary build and
canonical XML emitters now conditionally emit <Active> when
active.is_some(). Shared push_monitored_item_body helper
eliminates the duplicate MonitoredItem encoder between
AddMonitoredItems and DeleteMonitoredItems builders.
3. SampleInterval unit: clarified as **milliseconds** in
MinimalMonitoredItem.sample_interval doc + the example
(sample_interval_ticks → sample_interval_ms = 1000). Matches the
.NET reference's `ulong sampleInterval = 1000` default.
Open: F34's deeper finding — `MonitoredItem`'s wire schema is
DataContract field-suffix names (`activeField`, `bufferedField`,
`itemField`, `sampleIntervalField`, etc., per the per-session NBFX
dictionary the .NET probe declares), NOT XmlSerializer property
names (`Active`, `Buffered`, `Item`, `SampleInterval`). Our binary
NBFX builder still uses the property names, so MxDataProvider
silently fails to register monitored items — successField=true with
a 0-length Status array. The fix needs a complete rebuild of
build_add_monitored_items_request_body and
build_delete_monitored_items_request_body to use the field-suffix
names plus emit the *Specified siblings (activeFieldSpecified,
idFieldSpecified, etc.) as their own elements. The HMAC canonical
XML side is unaffected (XmlSerializer naming is correct there;
verified byte-equal to .NET via the F28 fixtures). Detailed in
design/followups.md F34's "Open" section.
Live verification of the F34-partial bonus context:
- Read still returns 99 end-to-end via canonical XML signing.
- AddMonitoredItems still returns Status[0] = 0 items
(server doesn't recognize our DataContract-misnamed payload).
- Publish still returns 0 values (the F34-open consequence).
- All other 13 canonical-XML signed ops succeed at the request
level (no SOAP faults, no HMAC rejections).
Workspace: mxaccess-asb 95 → 96 (+1 capture-driven decoder test);
