create_folder SP21+ fallback, ensure_project_open cross-project switch)
+ bench results
compile_project.py + get_compile_messages.py:
- IronPython 2.7's json.dumps cannot serialize System.Int64-backed `long`
values, which is what CODESYS's compile-message objects expose as
line_number / position. Added _coerce_int + _coerce_str helpers and a
shared _build_message_entry function. Three duplicated message-building
blocks collapsed into single helper calls.
- Defensive `try: json.dumps(...) except TypeError: json.dumps(default=str)`
so a stray field that slips past the helpers doesn't kill the emit.
connect_to_device.py:
- SP21+ may expose the login enum as LoginMode rather than
OnlineChangeOption. Extended the candidate sweep to probe both
script_engine.LoginMode and script_engine.OnlineChangeOption AND
online_app.LoginMode/OnlineChangeOption (some builds attach it to the
app object). Added "OnlineChange" + "Login" + "Download" to the
preferred-priority list. Added a 3-arg call shape variant for SPs
that take (mode, secondary-mode, force-bool).
create_folder.py:
- parent_object.create_folder() is no longer exposed on every parent type
in SP21+. Added two fallback factories tried in order:
1. parent.create_object(typeUuid='85d1215e-6520-4983-9a55-2d39d1f24cb4', name=...)
2. parent.add(script_engine.types.IecFolder, name=...)
with detailed warnings when each path fails. Final TypeError now lists
every factory tried so a future SP rotation surfaces clearly.
ensure_project_open.py:
- Uncommented the close-prior-project branch (was a TODO since the
initial fork). Cross-project switches in a persistent CODESYS now do
save() -> close() -> 500ms pump -> open(target). Without this,
projects.open against a different already-primary project fails
intermittently on file lock contention or pops a "project in use"
modal that freezes the IDE thread.
- save() is best-effort: if it raises (transient lock, save-as required)
we still proceed with close + open rather than getting stuck in a
half-switched state forever.
tests/bench-results.json:
- Captured timings from a clean run on MCPTest2 (PLCWinNT, 5 lib refs,
~12 POUs). 9 tools x 2 modes x iterations.
Headers (mean ms): persistent vs headless --
open_project 7700 vs 40041 (~5x; first call cold)
mirror_export 1547 vs 23723 (~15x)
list_project_libraries 1565 vs 23322 (~15x)
get_all_pou_code 1607 vs 23376 (~15x)
save_project 2095 vs 23321 (~11x)
create_pou (FB) 1540 vs 23903 (~16x)
delete_object 1544 vs 27420 (~18x)
bump_project_version 1540 vs 30678 (~20x)
bump_project_version #2 1556 vs 37769 (~24x)
- set_pou_code FAILED in both modes -- bench harness param-shape issue
(multi-line code passed verbatim to triple-quoted-string interpolation
doesn't survive the round-trip). Tool itself works fine through the
MCP tool call path; bench needs to escape newlines / use the same
prepareScriptWithHelpers shape the server uses. Filed for follow-up.

v0.3.0 returning-watcher architecture — background thread polls for commands
and marshals execution onto the CODESYS UI thread, keeping the IDE fully
responsive between operations. File-based IPC with atomic writes, async mutex
command serialization, headless fallback, and 35 passing tests.
