Metric Class Integer Property is uint?

[Kvargefar]

Is there a reason why the integer property is an unsigned integer? I've encountered several exceptions when creating a new instance of a Metric, or using the SetValue method, when the value is a negative integer.

Good question, I need to check that again. From the first view, uint doesn't make sense...

[SeppPenner]

The problem is the Proto file:

oneof value {
uint32 int_value = 3;
uint64 long_value = 4;
float float_value = 5;
double double_value = 6;
bool boolean_value = 7;
string string_value = 8;
PropertySet propertyset_value = 9;
PropertySetList propertysets_value = 10; // List of Property Values
PropertyValueExtension extension_value = 11;
}

--> Which value should be set if there is an int value in a metric, not an uint? uint32, uint64 and boolean are clearly bullshit in this case. We could transfer it to float / double or to string. Or to extension maybe? I don't really know the answer here...

I need to ask the Sparkplug guys for advice here, I guess...

Waiting on eclipse-sparkplug/sparkplug#495 and / or eclipse-sparkplug/sparkplug#499.

Will be done, for my reference https://github.com/eclipse/tahu/blob/5736e404889d4b95910613040a99ba79589ffb13/java/lib/core/src/main/java/org/eclipse/tahu/message/SparkplugBPayloadDecoder.java and https://github.com/eclipse/tahu/blob/5736e404889d4b95910613040a99ba79589ffb13/java/lib/core/src/main/java/org/eclipse/tahu/message/SparkplugBPayloadEncoder.java.

Should be fixed after 4fdb449 (Version 1.3.0+).
