# EAE Block Fork - Hybrid Manual/Automated Workflow

Fork function blocks from Schneider Electric standard libraries into your custom library using a hybrid approach that combines the best of manual and automated workflows.

**v7.2 ENHANCED - Production-Ready Reliability:**
- **Manual fork in EAE GUI** → Perfect HMI files (generated by EAE's designer)
- **Automated finalization** → Single-command execution updates ALL references
  - ✅ Root namespace updates
  - ✅ Cross-block references (FB/SubCAT in .fbt files)
  - ✅ HMI cross-references (fully qualified types in Designer.cs)
  - ✅ GUID generation + Registration
  - ✅ **Transactional rollback** - Automatic recovery from failures (v7.1)
  - ✅ **UTF-8 encoding** - Works on international Windows systems (v7.1)
  - 🆕 **Pre-fork validation** - Catches errors before manual fork in GUI (v7.2)
  - 🆕 **Better error messages** - Contextual help with recovery suggestions (v7.2)
  - 🆕 **Resume capability** - Gracefully handles interrupted forks (v7.2)
  - 🆕 **Dependency auto-detection** - Automatically suggests all SubCATs to fork (v7.2)

**Why this approach?**
- ✅ **Perfect HMI files** - EAE's GUI generates flawless Designer.cs files
- ✅ **Complete automation** - One command handles all namespace updates
- ✅ **Cross-reference handling** - Automatically updates references between forked blocks
- ✅ **Fast** - ~15 seconds per hierarchy (vs 3+ minutes manual editing)
- ✅ **User control** - Full visibility in GUI during fork
- ✅ **Failure-safe** - Auto-rollback protects your project from corruption
- 🆕 **Resumable** - Interrupted forks can be resumed from last successful block

**Separation of Concerns:**
- **eae-fork** (this skill): Finalize manually forked blocks (namespaces, GUIDs, registration)
- **eae-cat**: Register CAT blocks in dfbproj AND csproj (when called with `--register-only`)
- **eae-composite-fb**: Register composite blocks in dfbproj (when called with `--register-only`)
- **eae-basic-fb**: Register basic blocks in dfbproj (when called with `--register-only`)
- **eae-adapter**: Register adapters in dfbproj (when called with `--register-only`)
- **eae-datatype**: Register data types in dfbproj (when called with `--register-only`)

## Quick Start

**Interactive Guided Workflow** - Just tell the skill what you want:

```
You: Fork AnalogInput into SE.ScadapackWWW

Claude:
  📋 Analyzing AnalogInput...

  This block requires a 3-level hierarchy:
  1. AnalogInputBase (core logic)
  2. AnalogInputBaseExt (extended features)
  3. AnalogInput (full implementation)

  📝 Please fork these blocks in EAE GUI:

  Steps:
  1. Open EAE GUI
  2. Navigate to SE.App2CommonProcess library
  3. For each block, right-click → "Copy Block"
     ☐ AnalogInputBase → SE.ScadapackWWW
     ☐ AnalogInputBaseExt → SE.ScadapackWWW
     ☐ AnalogInput → SE.ScadapackWWW
  4. Reply 'done' when complete

You: done

Claude:
  🔧 Finalizing fork...
  ✓ Validated 3 blocks manually forked
  ✓ Updated namespaces in .fbt files (SE.ScadapackWWW)
  ✓ Updated namespaces in .cs files (15 files)
  ✓ Generated new GUIDs
  ✓ Registered in dfbproj/csproj

  ✅ Fork complete! Blocks ready to use in SE.ScadapackWWW.
```

**What the skill does:**
1. 🔍 **Analyzes** block hierarchy and dependencies
2. 📋 **Guides** you through manual fork in EAE GUI
3. ⏸️ **Waits** for your confirmation
4. 🔧 **Executes finalization script** - Single command updates everything:
   - Root namespaces in .fbt files
   - Cross-block references (FB/SubCAT elements)
   - HMI namespaces in .cs files
   - HMI cross-references (fully qualified types)
   - New GUIDs for all blocks
   - Project registration (dfbproj/csproj)
5. ✅ **Reports** complete summary with counts

### Alternative: Manual Finalization

If you've already forked in EAE GUI:

```bash
/eae-fork --finalize AnalogInput
```

---

## Triggers

| Trigger | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `/eae-fork` | Primary invocation |
| `fork block from library` | Natural language |
| `copy block to custom library` | Alternative phrasing |
| `migrate block namespace` | Namespace-focused |
| `customize EAE block` | Customization intent |

---

## CRITICAL: Fork Depth Selection

**Before forking, ALWAYS ask the user about fork depth:**

```
How deep should the fork go?

1. **Single block only** (Recommended for minor customization)
   - Fork only AnalogInput
   - Uses original library's AnalogInputBaseExt
   - Smallest footprint, easy to maintain

2. **Fork hierarchy** (Base → BaseExt → Full)
   - Fork AnalogInputBase, AnalogInputBaseExt, AND AnalogInput
   - Full control over the entire block chain
   - Best for significant modifications

3. **Fork with all SubCATs**
   - Fork hierarchy PLUS all SubCAT blocks (LimitAlarm, DeviationAlarm, etc.)
   - Maximum customization capability
   - Largest footprint, most maintenance

Which option do you prefer? (1/2/3)
```

### Why This Workflow?

| Aspect | Manual Fork + Finalize | Old Automated Approach |
|--------|----------------------|----------------------|
| **HMI Files** | ✅ Perfect (EAE-generated) | ❌ Decompiled (format issues) |
| **Complexity** | ✅ Low (simple namespace update) | ❌ High (ILSpy, post-processing) |
| **Reliability** | ✅ 100% (proven EAE workflow) | ❌ ~70% (decompilation artifacts) |
| **Speed** | ✅ ~30 sec/block | ⚠️ ~2 min/block |
| **User Control** | ✅ Full visibility in GUI | ⚠️ Black box automation |
| **Maintenance** | ✅ Easy (140 lines of code) | ❌ Hard (500+ lines) |

### Phase 3 Detail: Registration by Block Type

**CAT Blocks (most common):**
```
/eae-cat --register-only {BlockName} {Namespace}
  │
  ├── dfbproj: Add Compile entries for .fbt, _HMI.fbt
  ├── dfbproj: Add None entries for .cfg, .offline.xml, .opcua.xml
  ├── csproj: Add Compile entries for HMI .cs files
  ├── csproj: Add EmbeddedResource entries for .resx, .xml
  └── Folders.xml: Add folder entry
```

**Composite FB:**
```
/eae-composite-fb --register-only {BlockName} {Namespace}
  │
  └── dfbproj: Add Compile entry for .fbt (IEC61499Type=Composite)
```

**Basic FB:**
```
/eae-basic-fb --register-only {BlockName} {Namespace}
  │
  └── dfbproj: Add Compile entry for .fbt (IEC61499Type=Basic)
```

**Adapter:**
```
/eae-adapter --register-only {BlockName} {Namespace}
  │
  └── dfbproj: Add Compile entry for .adp (IEC61499Type=Adapter)
```

**DataType:**
```
/eae-datatype --register-only {BlockName} {Namespace}
  │
  └── dfbproj: Add Compile entry for .dt (IEC61499Type=DataType)
```

---

## eae-fork Responsibilities (Steps 1-5)

### Step 1: Copy IEC61499 Files

Copy from source library to target:

| Source | Target |
|--------|--------|
| `Libraries/{Lib}/Files/{Block}/` | `{Project}/{Target}/IEC61499/{Block}/` |

**IEC61499 Files to copy:**
```
{Block}.fbt              - Main block definition (XML)
{Block}.cfg              - CAT configuration (links to HMI)
{Block}.doc.xml          - Documentation (optional)
{Block}_HMI.fbt          - HMI interface block
{Block}_CAT.offline.xml  - Offline parameters
{Block}_CAT.opcua.xml    - OPC-UA config
{Block}_HMI.offline.xml  - HMI offline parameters
{Block}_HMI.opcua.xml    - HMI OPC-UA config
```

### Step 2: Decompile & Transform HMI Files (CRITICAL)

**HMI files must be DECOMPILED from the source library DLL.** Standard Schneider Electric libraries ship only compiled HMI DLLs - no source files exist in the Files/ directory for HMI.

| Source | Target |
|--------|--------|
| `Libraries/{Lib}-{Ver}/HMI/{Lib}.HMI.dll` (DECOMPILE) | `{Project}/{Target}/HMI/{Block}/` |

**Decompilation Process:**
```bash
# Use the decompile_hmi.py script
python scripts/decompile_hmi.py SE.App2CommonProcess AnalogInputBase SE.ScadapackWWW ./output

# Or with hierarchy (multiple blocks)
python scripts/decompile_hmi.py SE.App2CommonProcess AnalogInput SE.ScadapackWWW ./output \
    --forked-blocks AnalogInputBase AnalogInputBaseExt AnalogInput
```

**What the decompilation does:**
1. Locates the HMI DLL in `C:\ProgramData\Schneider Electric\Libraries\{Lib}-{Ver}\HMI\`
2. Decompiles using ILSpy CLI (ilspycmd)
3. Finds symbol/faceplate classes in `{Lib}.Symbols.{Block}/` and `{Lib}.Faceplates.{Block}/` directories
4. Splits decompiled classes into EAE format: `.cnv.cs` (main) + `.cnv.Designer.cs` (InitializeComponent)
5. Updates namespaces according to the rules below
6. Creates `.cnv.resx` and `.cnv.xml` files

**HMI Files to copy (per symbol/faceplate):**
```
{Block}.def.cs                    - Faceplate accessor definitions
{Block}.event.cs                  - Event argument classes
{Block}.Design.resx               - Design resources

{Block}_fpDefault.cnv.cs          - Faceplate implementation
{Block}_fpDefault.cnv.Designer.cs - Designer-generated code
{Block}_fpDefault.cnv.resx        - Faceplate resources

{Block}_fpParameter.cnv.cs        - Parameter faceplate
{Block}_fpParameter.cnv.Designer.cs
{Block}_fpParameter.cnv.resx

{Block}_fpTrend.cnv.cs            - Trend faceplate
{Block}_fpTrend.cnv.Designer.cs
{Block}_fpTrend.cnv.resx

{Block}_sDefault.cnv.cs           - Default symbol
{Block}_sDefault.cnv.Designer.cs
{Block}_sDefault.cnv.resx
{Block}_sDefault.cnv.xml          - Symbol XML (ONLY for symbols)

{Block}_sVertical.cnv.cs          - Vertical symbol
{Block}_sVertical.cnv.Designer.cs
{Block}_sVertical.cnv.resx
{Block}_sVertical.cnv.xml

{Block}_sDisplayPv.cnv.cs         - Display PV symbol
{Block}_sDisplayPv.cnv.Designer.cs
{Block}_sDisplayPv.cnv.resx
{Block}_sDisplayPv.cnv.xml

{Block}_sInstanceName.cnv.cs      - Instance name symbol
{Block}_sInstanceName.cnv.Designer.cs
{Block}_sInstanceName.cnv.resx
{Block}_sInstanceName.cnv.xml
```

**Important:** Faceplates (fp*) do NOT have .cnv.xml files. Symbols (s*) DO have .cnv.xml files.

### Step 3: Update Namespace & GUID in .fbt Files

```xml
<!-- BEFORE (source) -->
<FBType GUID="422cce07-335e-414d-823c-03c2d1ac0ef6"
        Name="AnalogInput" Namespace="SE.App2CommonProcess">

<!-- AFTER (forked) -->
<FBType GUID="a59ec74d-736e-42ab-a3ff-de74c9003156"
        Name="AnalogInput" Namespace="SE.ScadapackWWW">
```

**Sub-block namespace rules:**

| Block Type | Action |
|------------|--------|
| Forked blocks (in hierarchy) | Update to target namespace |
| Original library blocks | KEEP original namespace |
| Adapter interfaces | KEEP original namespace |
| DataTypes | KEEP original namespace |

```xml
<!-- MUST Update (forked blocks) -->
<FB Name="analogInputBaseExt" Type="AnalogInputBaseExt"
    Namespace="SE.ScadapackWWW" />

<!-- MUST KEEP (original library blocks) -->
<FB Name="rawPv" Type="aISignal" Namespace="SE.App2Base" />
<FB Name="control" Type="analogInputLogic" Namespace="SE.App2CommonProcess" />
<Adapter Name="IPv" Type="IAnalog" Namespace="SE.App2Base" />
```

### Step 4: Update .cfg File

The .cfg file links the CAT block to its HMI symbols. Update all paths:

```xml
<CAT Name="AnalogInputBase"
     CATFile="AnalogInputBase\AnalogInputBase.fbt"
     SymbolDefFile="..\HMI\AnalogInputBase\AnalogInputBase.def.cs"
     SymbolEventFile="..\HMI\AnalogInputBase\AnalogInputBase.event.cs"
     DesignFile="..\HMI\AnalogInputBase\AnalogInputBase.Design.resx"
     DocFile="AnalogInputBase\AnalogInputBase.doc.xml"
     Folder=".SignalProcessing.AnalogInput">

  <HMIInterface Name="IThis" FileName="AnalogInputBase\AnalogInputBase_HMI.fbt">
    <Symbol Name="fpDefault"
            FileName="..\HMI\AnalogInputBase\AnalogInputBase_fpDefault.cnv.cs"
            IsFaceplate="true">
      <DependentFiles>..\HMI\AnalogInputBase\AnalogInputBase_fpDefault.cnv.Designer.cs</DependentFiles>
      <DependentFiles>..\HMI\AnalogInputBase\AnalogInputBase_fpDefault.cnv.resx</DependentFiles>
    </Symbol>
    <Symbol Name="sDefault"
            FileName="..\HMI\AnalogInputBase\AnalogInputBase_sDefault.cnv.cs">
      <DependentFiles>..\HMI\AnalogInputBase\AnalogInputBase_sDefault.cnv.Designer.cs</DependentFiles>
      <DependentFiles>..\HMI\AnalogInputBase\AnalogInputBase_sDefault.cnv.resx</DependentFiles>
      <DependentFiles>..\HMI\AnalogInputBase\AnalogInputBase_sDefault.cnv.xml</DependentFiles>
    </Symbol>
    <!-- More symbols... -->
  </HMIInterface>

  <Plugin Name="Plugin=OfflineParametrizationEditor;..."
          Project="SE.ScadapackWWW"  <!-- UPDATE THIS -->
          Value="AnalogInputBase\AnalogInputBase_CAT.offline.xml" />
</CAT>
```

### Step 5: Update HMI Namespaces (CRITICAL - Complex Rules)

HMI files contain multiple categories of namespace references that require **different handling**:

#### Namespace Reference Categories

| Category | Pattern | Action | Example |
|----------|---------|--------|---------|
| **Block-specific (this block)** | `{Lib}.Symbols.{Block}`, `{Lib}.Faceplates.{Block}` | **UPDATE** to target | `SE.App2CommonProcess.Symbols.AnalogInputBase` → `SE.ScadapackWWW.Symbols.AnalogInputBase` |
| **Cross-block (forked block)** | `{Lib}.Symbols.{OtherForkedBlock}` | **UPDATE** if in forked set | When forking hierarchy, update AnalogInputBase refs in AnalogInput |
| **Cross-block (not forked)** | `{Lib}.Symbols.{NonForkedBlock}` | **KEEP** original | Keep `SE.App2CommonProcess.Symbols.Motor` if Motor not forked |
| **SupportClasses** | `{Lib}.SupportClasses` | **ALWAYS KEEP** | `SE.App2CommonProcess.SupportClasses` - contains shared utilities |
| **Base library** | `SE.App2Base.*` | **ALWAYS KEEP** | `SE.App2Base.Faceplates`, `SE.App2Base.Symbols`, etc. |
| **Framework** | `System.*`, `NxtControl.*` | **ALWAYS KEEP** | Framework namespaces never change |

#### Example: Using Directives in sDefault.cs

```csharp
// From AnalogInputBase/sDefault.cs (decompiled)

// KEEP - Framework namespaces
using System;
using NxtControl.GuiFramework;

// KEEP - Base library (SE.App2Base)
using SE.App2Base.Faceplates;
using SE.App2Base.Graphics;
using SE.App2Base.SupportClasses;
using SE.App2Base.Symbols;

// UPDATE - Block-specific (this block is being forked)
using SE.App2CommonProcess.Faceplates.AnalogInputBase;
// → SE.ScadapackWWW.Faceplates.AnalogInputBase

// KEEP - SupportClasses (shared utilities, NOT block-specific)
using SE.App2CommonProcess.SupportClasses;
// Contains: AnalogInputUnit, MotorAppearance, ValveAppearance, etc.

namespace SE.App2CommonProcess.Symbols.AnalogInputBase;
// → namespace SE.ScadapackWWW.Symbols.AnalogInputBase;
```

#### Cross-Block References (Hierarchy Forks)

When forking a hierarchy (e.g., AnalogInput → AnalogInputBaseExt → AnalogInputBase), child blocks embed parent symbols:

```csharp
// From AnalogInput/sDefault.cs (decompiled)

// UPDATE - Cross-block reference (AnalogInputBase IS in the forked set)
using SE.App2CommonProcess.Symbols.AnalogInputBase;
// → SE.ScadapackWWW.Symbols.AnalogInputBase

// Fully qualified type in field declaration
private SE.App2CommonProcess.Symbols.AnalogInputBase.sDefault analogFunction;
// → SE.ScadapackWWW.Symbols.AnalogInputBase.sDefault

// Instantiation
analogFunction = new SE.App2CommonProcess.Symbols.AnalogInputBase.sDefault();
// → new SE.ScadapackWWW.Symbols.AnalogInputBase.sDefault();
```

#### SupportClasses - Why They Must Be Preserved

The `SupportClasses` namespace contains **library-wide utility classes** shared across all blocks:

```
SE.App2CommonProcess.SupportClasses/
├── AnalogInputUnit.cs        # Used by AnalogInput symbols
├── AnalogOutputUnit.cs       # Used by AnalogOutput symbols
├── MotorAppearance.cs        # Used by Motor symbols
├── ValveAppearance.cs        # Used by Valve symbols
├── PIDUnit.cs                # Used by PID symbols
├── BitExtensions.cs          # Utility methods
├── DynamicPropertyGrid.cs    # UI helpers
└── ... (60+ shared classes)
```

These classes are **NOT part of any specific block** and should **NEVER** have their references updated.

**Files requiring namespace update:**
- `{Block}.def.cs` - Multiple namespaces (Faceplates and Symbols)
- `{Block}.event.cs` - Multiple namespaces
- `{Block}_*.cnv.cs` - Single namespace per file (plus cross-block references)

## What eae-fork Does vs What eae-cat Does

### eae-fork (File Transformation)

| Task | Description |
|------|-------------|
| Copy IEC61499 files | .fbt, .cfg, .offline.xml, .opcua.xml |
| Copy HMI files | .def.cs, .event.cs, .cnv.*, .Design.resx |
| Update namespaces | In .fbt and .cs files |
| Generate new GUIDs | For all forked .fbt files |
| Update .cfg paths | SymbolDefFile, SymbolEventFile, etc. |

### eae-cat (Project Registration)

| Task | Description |
|------|-------------|
| dfbproj registration | 3 ItemGroups (None, Compile, Content) |
| csproj registration | Compile, None, EmbeddedResource items |
| Folders.xml update | CAT folder entries |
| Validation | Verify block appears in library browser |

**Why this separation?**
- eae-fork handles file content transformation (namespace, GUID)
- eae-cat handles project structure (registration, dependencies)
- Each skill has clear, testable responsibilities

---

## Commands

| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `/eae-fork {Block} from {Lib} to {Target}` | Fork a block (asks about depth) |
| `/eae-fork --list {Lib}` | List blocks in source library |
| `/eae-fork --hierarchy {Block}` | Fork block with Base/BaseExt chain |
| `/eae-fork --with-deps {Block}` | Fork block with all dependencies |
| `/eae-fork --dry-run` | Show what would be forked |

---

## Scripts

### Detect Block Type (Orchestration)

The `detect_block_type.py` script examines source library files to determine block type for orchestration.

```bash
# Basic usage
python scripts/detect_block_type.py <block_name> <library_name>

# Examples
python scripts/detect_block_type.py AnalogInput SE.App2CommonProcess
# Output: Detected CAT block, sub-skill: eae-cat

python scripts/detect_block_type.py MyLogicFB SE.App2Base
# Output: Detected BASIC block, sub-skill: eae-basic-fb

# JSON output for automation
python scripts/detect_block_type.py AnalogInput SE.App2CommonProcess --json

# Verbose output with evidence
python scripts/detect_block_type.py AnalogInput SE.App2CommonProcess --verbose
```

**Detection Logic:**

| Block Type | Detection Criteria |
|------------|-------------------|
| **CAT** | Has `.cfg` file with `<HMIInterface>` elements |
| **Composite** | `.fbt` with `Format="2.0"` and `<FBNetwork>`, no `<BasicFB>` |
| **Basic** | `.fbt` with `<BasicFB>` element |
| **Adapter** | Has `.adp` file |
| **DataType** | Has `.dt` file |

**Exit Codes:**
| Code | Meaning |
|------|---------|
| 0 | Success - type detected |
| 1 | Block not found |
| 2 | Unable to determine type |

### Pre-flight Check

Validate prerequisites before fork operations to catch errors early.

```bash
# Basic usage
python scripts/preflight_check.py <block_name> <source_library> <target_library>

# Examples
python scripts/preflight_check.py AnalogInput SE.App2CommonProcess SE.ScadapackWWW

# Allow overwriting existing target block
python scripts/preflight_check.py --allow-overwrite AnalogInput SE.App2CommonProcess SE.ScadapackWWW

# JSON output for automation
python scripts/preflight_check.py --json Motor SE.App2CommonProcess SE.ScadapackWWW
```

**What it checks:**

| Check | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| Source library | Library exists in standard locations |
| Source block | Block folder/files exist in source |
| Block type | Detects CAT/Composite/Basic/Adapter/DataType |
| Source files | Required files present for block type |
| Target library | Target exists in project |
| Target conflict | Block doesn't already exist in target |
| dfbproj exists | Target has valid dfbproj file |

**Exit Codes:**
| Code | Meaning |
|------|---------|
| 0 | Pre-flight passed, ready to fork |
| 1 | Error (missing arguments, etc.) |
| 10 | Pre-flight failed (prerequisites not met) |
| 11 | Target exists (use --allow-overwrite) |

---

### Decompile HMI (Primary Script)

The `decompile_hmi.py` script extracts full HMI functionality from compiled library DLLs.

```bash
# Basic usage: decompile HMI for a single block
python scripts/decompile_hmi.py <source_lib> <block_name> <target_namespace> <output_dir>

# Example: Decompile AnalogInputBase HMI
python scripts/decompile_hmi.py SE.App2CommonProcess AnalogInputBase SE.ScadapackWWW \
    "C:\Project\SE.ScadapackWWW\HMI"

# Hierarchy fork: update cross-references between forked blocks
python scripts/decompile_hmi.py SE.App2CommonProcess AnalogInput SE.ScadapackWWW ./output \
    --forked-blocks AnalogInputBase AnalogInputBaseExt AnalogInput

# Use existing decompiled directory (skip re-decompilation)
python scripts/decompile_hmi.py SE.App2CommonProcess AnalogInput SE.ScadapackWWW ./output \
    --decompiled-dir C:\temp\decompiled-hmi

# Keep decompiled files for inspection
python scripts/decompile_hmi.py SE.App2CommonProcess AnalogInput SE.ScadapackWWW ./output \
    --keep-decompiled
```

**Requirements:**
- ILSpy CLI (`ilspycmd`) - Install with: `dotnet tool install -g ilspycmd`
- Python 3.8+
- Standard library only (no external dependencies)

**Output Structure:**
```
{output_dir}/{BlockName}/
├── {BlockName}.def.cs              # Faceplate/symbol partial class definitions
├── {BlockName}.event.cs            # Event argument classes
├── {BlockName}.Design.resx         # Design resources
├── {BlockName}_fpDefault.cnv.cs    # Faceplate main code
├── {BlockName}_fpDefault.cnv.Designer.cs  # InitializeComponent
├── {BlockName}_fpDefault.cnv.resx  # Faceplate resources
├── {BlockName}_sDefault.cnv.cs     # Symbol main code
├── {BlockName}_sDefault.cnv.Designer.cs   # InitializeComponent
├── {BlockName}_sDefault.cnv.resx   # Symbol resources
├── {BlockName}_sDefault.cnv.xml    # Symbol mapping (symbols only)
└── ... (more symbols/faceplates)
```

**Exit Codes:**
| Code | Meaning |
|------|---------|
| 0 | Success |
| 1 | Error (library not found, decompilation failed, etc.) |

### Fork Block

```bash
# Fork files and update namespaces (Steps 1-4 only)
python scripts/fork_block.py fork AnalogInput SE.App2CommonProcess SE.ScadapackWWW

# Fork with hierarchy
python scripts/fork_block.py fork AnalogInput SE.App2CommonProcess SE.ScadapackWWW --hierarchy

# List blocks
python scripts/fork_block.py list SE.App2CommonProcess
```

### Validate Fork (Files Only)

```bash
# Validate namespace updates (NOT dfbproj registration)
python scripts/validate_fork.py SE.ScadapackWWW AnalogInput
```

---

## Namespace Update Rules

### MUST Update (Forked Blocks)

```xml
<!-- ROOT ELEMENT: Always update -->
<FBType Name="AnalogInput" Namespace="SE.ScadapackWWW">

<!-- SUB-BLOCKS that are ALSO forked: Update -->
<FB Name="analogInputBaseExt" Type="AnalogInputBaseExt"
    Namespace="SE.ScadapackWWW" />
```

### MUST KEEP (Original Library References)

```xml
<!-- Blocks from original libraries: Keep namespace -->
<FB Name="rawPv" Type="aISignal" Namespace="SE.App2Base" />

<!-- Adapter interfaces: Always keep original -->
<Adapter Name="IPv" Type="IAnalog" Namespace="SE.App2Base" />

<!-- DataTypes from original libraries: Keep -->
<VarDeclaration Name="Status" Type="Status" Namespace="SE.App2Base" />
```

---

## Block Hierarchy Pattern

EAE blocks follow a three-tier hierarchy:

```
BlockBase          → BlockBaseExt         → Block
(core logic)         (extended features)    (complete)

Example:
AnalogInputBase    → AnalogInputBaseExt   → AnalogInput
```

---

## Anti-Patterns

| Avoid | Why | Instead |
|-------|-----|---------|
| Registering in dfbproj from eae-fork | Duplicates eae-cat logic | Delegate to eae-cat |
| Creating HMI stubs instead of decompiling | Stubs lack visual functionality | Use decompile_hmi.py |
| Changing original library namespace references | Breaks adapters | Keep original namespaces |
| Reusing source GUID | Conflicts with original | Generate new GUID |
| Not asking about fork depth | Wrong blocks forked | Always clarify with user |
| Updating SupportClasses references | Breaks shared utilities | Keep SE.{Lib}.SupportClasses |

---

## Troubleshooting

| Issue | Cause | Solution |
|-------|-------|----------|
| Block not visible in library | dfbproj not updated | Run eae-cat to register |
| HMI exceptions | Missing or invalid HMI files | Re-run decompile_hmi.py |
| Adapter errors | Wrong namespace | Keep adapter namespaces as SE.App2Base |
| Build errors | Incomplete hierarchy | Use `--hierarchy` flag |
| ILSpy not found | ilspycmd not installed | `dotnet tool install -g ilspycmd` |
| Empty symbol output | Block not in decompiled DLL | Check library path and block name |
| Missing SupportClasses | Namespace incorrectly updated | Keep SE.{Lib}.SupportClasses as-is |

---

## Files Created by eae-fork

### IEC61499 Files

| File | Changes |
|------|---------|
| `{Block}.fbt` | Namespace, new GUID, sub-block references |
| `{Block}.cfg` | SymbolDefFile, SymbolEventFile, DesignFile, DocFile, Plugin Project= |
| `{Block}.doc.xml` | Copy as-is |
| `{Block}_HMI.fbt` | Namespace update, new GUID |
| `{Block}_CAT.offline.xml` | Copy as-is |
| `{Block}_CAT.opcua.xml` | Copy as-is |
| `{Block}_HMI.offline.xml` | Copy as-is |
| `{Block}_HMI.opcua.xml` | Copy as-is |

### HMI Files (All copied and namespace-updated)

| File | Changes |
|------|---------|
| `{Block}.def.cs` | Namespace update (multiple namespaces) |
| `{Block}.event.cs` | Namespace update (multiple namespaces) |
| `{Block}.Design.resx` | Copy as-is |
| `{Block}_fp*.cnv.cs` | Namespace update |
| `{Block}_fp*.cnv.Designer.cs` | Namespace update |
| `{Block}_fp*.cnv.resx` | Copy as-is |
| `{Block}_s*.cnv.cs` | Namespace update |
| `{Block}_s*.cnv.Designer.cs` | Namespace update |
| `{Block}_s*.cnv.resx` | Copy as-is |
| `{Block}_s*.cnv.xml` | Copy as-is |

**Files NOT created by eae-fork (handled by eae-cat):**
- `{Lib}.dfbproj` - Project registration entries
- `{Lib}.HMI.csproj` - HMI project registration entries
- `General/Folders.xml` - CAT folder entries

---

## HMI Decompilation Deep Dive

### Why Decompilation is Required

Standard Schneider Electric libraries (SE.App2Base, SE.App2CommonProcess, etc.) ship with:
- **Source files** for IEC61499 blocks (`.fbt`, `.cfg`, etc.) in `Files/` directory
- **Compiled DLLs** for HMI components in `HMI/` directory
- **No source files** for HMI symbols and faceplates

This means to fork a block with full HMI functionality, we must decompile the HMI DLL.

### Decompilation Architecture

### Class File Splitting

ILSpy produces single-file classes. EAE requires split files:

**Decompiled (ILSpy output):**
```csharp
// sDefault.cs - COMBINED
using System;
using NxtControl.GuiFramework;

namespace SE.App2CommonProcess.Symbols.AnalogInputBase;

public class sDefault : SEAppLibHMISymbol
{
    private AIFunctionName aIFunctionName;
    private AnalogValue analogValue;

    public sDefault()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    }

    private void InitializeComponent()
    {
        this.aIFunctionName = new AIFunctionName();
        this.analogValue = new AnalogValue();
        this.aIFunctionName.Location = new Point(0, 0);
        // ... 100+ lines of visual setup
    }
}
```

**EAE format (split):**
```csharp
// AnalogInputBase_sDefault.cnv.cs - MAIN
using NxtControl.GuiFramework;
using SE.App2Base.Symbols;

namespace SE.ScadapackWWW.Symbols.AnalogInputBase
{
    public partial class sDefault : SEAppLibHMISymbol
    {
        public sDefault()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }
    }
}
```

```csharp
// AnalogInputBase_sDefault.cnv.Designer.cs - DESIGNER
using System.Drawing;
using System.ComponentModel;
using NxtControl.Drawing;
using NxtControl.GuiFramework;

namespace SE.ScadapackWWW.Symbols.AnalogInputBase
{
    partial class sDefault
    {
        private void InitializeComponent()
        {
            this.aIFunctionName = new AIFunctionName();
            this.analogValue = new AnalogValue();
            // ... full visual setup code
        }
    }
}
```

### ILSpy Installation

```bash
# Install ILSpy CLI globally
dotnet tool install -g ilspycmd

# Verify installation
ilspycmd --version

# Common install location (Windows)
~/.dotnet/tools/ilspycmd.exe
```

### Manual Decompilation (for Debugging)

```bash
# Decompile entire HMI DLL
ilspycmd "C:\ProgramData\Schneider Electric\Libraries\SE.App2CommonProcess-25.0.1.5\HMI\SE.App2CommonProcess.HMI.dll" -p -o C:\temp\decompiled

# Explore output structure
dir /s C:\temp\decompiled\SE.App2CommonProcess.Symbols.*
```

  - Net result: Simpler, more reliable overall workflow

### v5.1.0
- **CRITICAL FIX**: Complete HMI file generation (SUPERSEDED by v6.0)
  - Modified `fork_block.py::extract_decompiled_hmi()` to call standalone `decompile_hmi.py` as subprocess
  - Now creates ALL required HMI files: .cnv.cs, .cnv.Designer.cs, .cnv.resx, .cnv.xml, .Design.resx
  - Eliminated code duplication between fork_block.py and decompile_hmi.py
  - Fixed EAE GUI errors "Unable to load Designer.cs/resx" files
- **CRITICAL FIX**: Conditional aspmap.xml registration
  - Modified `register_dfbproj.py` to check if aspmap.xml exists before adding to dfbproj
  - Only SE.App2CommonProcess blocks have aspmap.xml, SE.App2Base blocks don't
  - Eliminated "Solution Integrity" warnings for missing aspmap.xml files
- **IMPROVED**: Files now match manual fork structure exactly
- **TESTED**: All symbols and faceplates open correctly in EAE GUI without errors
- **NOTE**: This version attempted to solve HMI generation via decompilation - v6.0 takes simpler approach

### v5.0.0
- **MAJOR**: Automatic orchestration workflow
  - eae-fork now detects block type and automatically calls appropriate registration sub-skill
  - Users no longer need to manually run registration skills after forking
  - Added `detect_block_type.py` script for block type detection
- **NEW**: Block type detection examines source files to determine:
  - CAT (has .cfg with HMIInterface)
  - Composite (FBNetwork, no BasicFB)
  - Basic (has BasicFB)
  - Adapter (has .adp file)
  - DataType (has .dt file)
- **NEW**: Orchestration routing to sub-skills:
  - CAT → `/eae-cat --register-only`
  - Composite → `/eae-composite-fb --register-only`
  - Basic → `/eae-basic-fb --register-only`
  - Adapter → `/eae-adapter --register-only`
  - DataType → `/eae-datatype --register-only`
- **IMPROVED**: Complete workflow in single command

### v4.0.0
- **MAJOR**: Full HMI decompilation workflow
  - Added `decompile_hmi.py` script for extracting HMI from compiled DLLs
  - Uses ILSpy CLI (ilspycmd) for decompilation
  - Splits decompiled classes into EAE format (.cnv.cs + .cnv.Designer.cs)
  - Preserves full visual implementation (not stubs)
- **NEW**: Decompilation process:
  1. Locate HMI DLL in library folder
  2. Decompile using ILSpy to temp directory
  3. Find symbol/faceplate classes for the target block
  4. Extract InitializeComponent to Designer file
  5. Update namespaces with proper categorization rules
  6. Generate .resx and .cnv.xml files
- **IMPROVED**: Cross-block reference handling for hierarchy forks
  - `--forked-blocks` flag to specify all blocks being forked
  - Updates cross-references only for blocks in forked set
- **REQUIREMENT**: ILSpy CLI (`dotnet tool install -g ilspycmd`)

### v3.1.0
- **CRITICAL FIX**: Smart HMI namespace handling with proper reference categorization
  - Block-specific namespaces (Symbols/Faceplates.{Block}): UPDATE if block is forked
  - Cross-block references: UPDATE only if referenced block is in forked set
  - SupportClasses: ALWAYS PRESERVE (library-wide shared utilities)
  - Base library (SE.App2Base.*): ALWAYS PRESERVE
  - Framework (System.*, NxtControl.*): ALWAYS PRESERVE
- **ENHANCED**: Cross-block reference handling for hierarchy forks
  - When forking AnalogInput hierarchy, AnalogInput's reference to AnalogInputBase.sDefault is properly updated
  - Fully qualified type references and instantiations are updated
- **DOCUMENTED**: Comprehensive namespace reference categories with examples
- **IMPROVED**: Better logging of preserved library references

### v3.0.0
- **CRITICAL FIX**: HMI files must be COPIED from source, not generated
  - Insight from manual fork analysis in EAE GUI
  - HMI files contain complete implementations with designer code
- **EXPANDED**: eae-fork now handles Steps 1-5:
  - Step 1: Copy IEC61499 files
  - Step 2: Copy HMI files (NEW - from source library)
  - Step 3: Update namespaces in .fbt files
  - Step 4: Update .cfg file (expanded: all path attributes)
  - Step 5: Update HMI namespaces in .cs files
- **DOCUMENTED**: Complete file list from manual fork analysis
  - IEC61499 files: 8 file types
  - HMI files: Up to 28 files per block (varies by symbols/faceplates)
- **DOCUMENTED**: Detailed .cfg file structure with all required attributes
- **CLARIFIED**: eae-cat handles project registration only (dfbproj, csproj, Folders.xml)

### v2.1.0
- Clear separation of concerns between eae-fork and eae-cat
- Removed dfbproj registration from eae-fork (delegated to eae-cat)

### v2.0.0
- Added fork depth user interaction question
- Added dfbproj registration (now moved to eae-cat)
- Added HMI file generation (now moved to eae-cat)

### v1.0.0
- Initial release
- Basic file copy and namespace update
