OPC UA 是用于工业应用程序数据建模和数据交换的协议。
OPC UA 服务器提供对由参考连接节点网格,组织数据的访问。使用不同引用类型和包含元数据的节点,使客户端能够在无需提前知道其结构的情况下导航和解释数据。
Each node has a unique identifier and attributes that can be read and written. Among others, there are 变量 nodes that store values and callable 方法 nodes with attached nodes describing parameters and return values. Notifications in case of events and monitoring of Variable nodes for value changes are offered too.
Complex objects can be created by combining nodes using references. Inheritance is also possible. OPC UA offers support for pre-made models that can be extended to fit special needs.
OPC UA is the platform-independent successor of OPC Classic intended for usage on all levels, from embedded sensors up to manufacturing execution and enterprise resource planning systems. It has a service-oriented architecture based on standardized messages for service requests and responses. There are different ways for these messages to be encoded and transported over the network. The most common way is binary encoding over TCP.
The following table summarizes the features of OPC UA that are supported by Qt OPC UA.

A subset of the OPC UA data types is currently supported in Qt OPC UA. Most of them are available with all backends.

Two important classes are exposed to the user: QOpcUaClient and QOpcUaNode .
Objects of both classes are owned by the user and must be deleted when they are no longer needed.
The following table summarizes the logging categories that are used by Qt OPC UA.
