OdEntry Class¶
A single subindex entry in the local Object Dictionary (FR-CO-001): value + declared data
type + access flags + PDO mappability. Stored inside ObjectDictionary; not
intended to be constructed directly by callers — use the fluent Add* methods on the
dictionary.
Inheritance Object → OdEntry
Remarks¶
The stored raw value is a little-endian byte array in the same layout SDO expedited encoding uses on the wire. This keeps the SDO server code path allocation-cheap (no round-trip through typed converters on every request) while typed accessors on ObjectDictionary preserve type-safety for local reads/writes. The value is only ever read or replaced under the dictionary's lock; the non-copying RawSpan view is therefore internal and used solely from code paths that already hold that lock.
Properties¶
OdEntry.Access Property¶
Access permissions (read-only / write-only / read-write).
Property Value¶
OdEntry.DataType Property¶
CiA 301 data type of the entry.
Property Value¶
OdEntry.PdoMappable Property¶
Whether the entry may be mapped into a PDO — the PDOMapping attribute of a
CiA 306 device description. Communication-profile objects (1000h–1FFFh)
are mappable only where CiA 301 permits it (for example 1001h/1002h); application objects default to mappable. A mapping
entry that references a non-mappable object is rejected with SDO abort
0604 0041h (CiA 301 §7.5.2.36 / §7.5.2.38).
Property Value¶
OdEntry.Size Property¶
Fixed on-the-wire size in bytes for the entry's DataType. For Domain the value is variable and this property returns the current stored length.
Property Value¶
Methods¶
OdEntry.GetRawValue() Method¶
Snapshot of the raw little-endian bytes. Safe to hand out — callers get a fresh copy and cannot mutate the dictionary's private buffer.
