The OPC UA open62541 historical data reading client is not compiled
On the library's website, the documentation provides options for functions for accessing historical data reading. There is also an example of using historical data reading in the repository. I've simplified this example from the repository a bit, but I still can't compile it.
#include <open62541/client_config_default.h>
#include <open62541/client_highlevel.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
static UA_Boolean readHist(UA_Client *client, const UA_NodeId *nodeId, UA_Boolean moreDataAvailable, const UA_ExtensionObject *data, void *unused)
{
printf("\nRead historical callback:\n");
printf("\tHas more data:\t%d\n\n", moreDataAvailable);
return true;
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
UA_Client *client = UA_Client_new();
UA_ClientConfig_setDefault(UA_Client_getConfig(client));
UA_StatusCode retval = UA_Client_connect(client, "opc.tcp://localhost:62544");
if (retval != UA_STATUSCODE_GOOD)
{
UA_Client_delete(client);
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
UA_NodeId node = UA_NODEID_STRING(1, "MyTag");
retval = UA_Client_HistoryRead_raw(client, &node, readHist, UA_DateTime_fromUnixTime(0), UA_DateTime_now(), UA_STRING_NULL, false, 10, UA_TIMESTAMPSTORETURN_BOTH, (void*) UA_FALSE);
if (retval != UA_STATUSCODE_GOOD)
{
printf("Failed. %s\n", UA_StatusCode_name(retval));
}
UA_Client_disconnect(client);
UA_Client_delete(client);
return retval == UA_STATUSCODE_GOOD ? EXIT_SUCCESS : EXIT_FAILURE;
}
Compilation result:

01:02:56 Build Failed. 10 errors, 0 warnings. (took 2s.585ms)
When compiling, it outputs errors like these, which refer to the file "client.cpp" in which there are no type declarations.
I don't even have a clue what needs to be done. I'm trying to compile the example that the developers provided, but even it can't be compiled. Is this a mistake, a flaw, or am I doing something wrong? It is very necessary to implement a method of reading historical data through OPC UA. I ask for assistance in resolving this issue.
My Tools:
- Windows 10
- MSYS2 (MinGW)
- Eclipse IDE
- open62541 (v1.2.3)
UPDATE
So, I rebuilt the branch library 1.2. The build was successful:

Solution
In order for the mechanism of reading historical data to work, it is necessary to enable the UA_ENABLE_HISTORIZING parameter WHEN BUILDING THE LIBRARY, which is not specified in the official documentation for the library.
