AW: ClassCastException: class org.apache.plc4x.java.opcua.readwrite.ServiceFault cannot be cast to class org.apache.plc4x.java.opcua.readwrite.ReadResponse

[Christofer Dutz]

Hi Thorsten,

first of all: Thank you for providing a Unit Test for demonstrating your 
problem ... that makes our lives a lot easier :-)

I'm sure someone on the community will have a look at the issue soon. I'll try 
to ping the right people for that. 

Chris

Betreff: ClassCastException: class 
org.apache.plc4x.java.opcua.readwrite.ServiceFault cannot be cast to class 
org.apache.plc4x.java.opcua.readwrite.ReadResponse

Hi all,

if I create an OPCUA connection (to milo) and wait 5 minutes before sending a 
read request the error attached below is logged and the read execution blocks 
infinitely.
I'm used codebase 0.9.0 and 0.10.0 snapshot.
Note: The wait simulates a connection created earlier and get from a connection 
pool in a managed environment like application server.
I think theres a timeout for pending connections on the server side. I would 
expect, that the driver should throw an exception rather blocking?

[nioEventLoopGroup-2-1] WARN io.netty.channel.DefaultChannelPipeline - An 
exceptionCaught() event was fired, and it reached at the tail of the pipeline. 
It usually means the last handler in the pipeline did not handle the exception.
