One point about rolling this all yourself, which is perfectly possible, is writes blocking reads. The existing system makes sure that if a write is flagged for the future (i.e....

I used this automatic read/write to set up a tag wrapper in C++ that would look like the native data type but would automatically show what was in the PLC....

This is a hard problem to solve generally due to NP completeness. That said, why not start small and work at this for a while? For instance, rather than trying...

Sorry for dropping this one for so long. Have you tried to see if this works? I see in the currently released code that the "@" character is accepted in...
