Pull request overview
This PR updates the codegen metadata and templates so generated NI-SLSC Python APIs can expose parameter default values (notably library=None, timeouts, and “default resource” sentinels), and regenerates the affected modules and tests accordingly.
Changes:
- Added
defaultfields tonislscapi_full.jsonfor various parameters (timeouts, default resources). - Updated codegen helpers/templates to emit defaults in generated Python signatures (and to reorder required vs defaulted parameters).
- Regenerated
generated/nislsc/session.pyand updated unit tests/examples to match the new call signatures.
