Suggestion
Checks user [Array]s (structs with the attribute [Array]).
When the type of the Anchor can be mapped to multiple IEC types, a default type is used.
Consider using the [DataType] attribute on the struct to explicitly choose a mapped type.
Ambiguous types and their IEC types are shwon in the following table (all mappings are shown inside the Readme.txt of each VS Template). If no [DataType] attribute is specified the type is mapped by default to the IEC data type in bold letters:
| C# | .NET Framework | IEC 61131-3 types |
|---|---|---|
byte |
System.Byte |
USINT, BYTE |
int |
System.Int32 |
DINT, TIME |
long |
System.Int64 |
LINT, LTIME, LDATE, LTIME_OF_DAY, LDATE_AND_TIME |
ushort |
System.UInt16 |
UINT, WORD |
uint |
System.UInt32 |
UDINT, DWORD |
ulong |
System.UInt64 |
ULINT, LWORD |
| --- | System.Iec61131Lib.Any |
ANY, ANY_MAGNITUDE, ANY_NUM, ANY_INT, ANY_SIGNED, ANY_UNSIGNED, ANY_REAL, ANY_BIT, ANY_ELEMENTARY, ANY_STRING |
You can also use the provided automatic Code Fixes to add a [DataType] attribute to the struct with one of the possible mappings inside. ( Press Alt + Enter on the Error line to find the Code Fix in the context menu)
Insert a [DataType] attribute on the struct with the name of the IEC type you want to map to.
