Hi,
I have a device using Connext Micro and other devices in the system are using Connext Core. Some topics that were developed for Core are using the @Optional keyword on some fields in the IDL. I found that these topics will not match up with the Micro device. Is there any way to get these topics to match other than removing the @Optional extension? Is there any plan for Micro to support Xtype extensions?
Thanks,
Anne Fiore
