Incomplete port name visualization on the Monitor window

[PonomarevDA]

I'm using Yukon for PX4 and Ardupilot. I've added port.List on my custom branch and found out that some of their port names are incompletely visualized in the Monitor window.

Let's study PX4. All port related registers have the following name pattern: uavcan.<pub/sub>.<udral/uorb>.<port name>.<instance number>.id. For example, the ESC related register name is uavcan.pub.udral.esc.0.id. You can check the actual registers names in ParamManager.hpp.

All register names are correctly parsed in the Registers window:

In the Monitor window I expect to see uadral.esc.0 . But I see just their instance numbers:

All ports which have no dot in their name, it is fine.

Should this problem be solved on the autopilot side by changing the port name pattern (for example by using underscore instead of dots), or can Yukon handle such names?

Thanks.

I programmed it in a way that expects the last element separated by dot to be id, the second last to be the link name and the third last to be the port type (pub/sub/cln/srv).

That is, strictly speaking, up to spec, but then the spec is incorrect:

https://github.com/OpenCyphal/public_regulated_data_types/blob/70573cb98a346f5a9aee54ce421a8a79700df2b4/uavcan/register/384.Access.1.0.dsdl#L128-L139

I think it should be updated to allow the full stop symbol inside the PORT_NAME.

Yes, I will do this.

Thanks! With the latest release it works well.
