OPC HDA Client & Server in VB.NET

Please read everything before responding. • Build vb.net DLLs which can function as an OPC (OLE for Process Control) HDA client & server each (the DCOM version). Support full functionality of OPC-HDA. The OPC-HDA Server will work against a MS SQL Server database. The schema will be provided. • A test application that will work with some Historian that supports OPC-HDA. Allow us to test the finished solution with it also. Must specify the Historian intended to be used. • The DLLs must not just be the examples downloaded off the some web site which don’t have the source code. • Need full vb.net source code for the internal part of the server & client. We need this source code in case we have errors or need to do optimization later. • It can have dependencies on PUBLIC and FREELY, UNENCUMBERED AVAILABLE libraries if necessary. • Works with latest .NET framework & Builds in latest MS Visual Studio.
