GitHub user chrisdutz edited a comment on the discussion: Some questions about developing new protocols
For problem 1 multiple things need to happen for your driver to show up. 1. You need to have a resource file in (I think) META-INF/services that lists your driver class 2. The driver class needs to implement the Drivers interface 3. You need to have your driver on the applications classpath (add a dependency to it) Regarding question 2 I usually make a capture of a working solution using the protocol and then use @sruehl s tool to convert that into a parser-serializer test xml and firstly make sure that passes. Then I take the snippets of this parser serializer test and build a driver test xml (IT - Integration test) and start implementing the driver logic. In parallel I create a manual test, that runs the driver at some real hardware that I've setup with dedicated test data (so I can compare my test results with expected values). Just have a look at some of the existing stuff for other protocols. However... The tests are in the driver implementation modules, the test xml are in the protocol modules, as they are multi-language. Hope that helps GitHub link: https://github.com/apache/plc4x/discussions/1983#discussioncomment-11912043 ---- This is an automatically sent email for dev@plc4x.apache.org.
