RTI Connext DDS 6.0.0
If you are new to RTI Connext DDS, the place to begin is the Core Libraries Getting Started Guide. This guide will teach you the core concepts and guide you through writing your first application examples.
For an overview of new features and bug fixes in this release, consult the following documentation:
For information on migration and compatibility with previous releases, consult the following documentation:
- Migration Guide: Migrating from 5.3.1 to 6.0.0
- Migrating from previous releases to 5.3.1: See release notes for 5.3.1 (PDF version)
To learn about an RTI Connext DDS concept in depth, consult the Core Libraries and Utilities User's Manual. This comprehensive guide covers all the material exhaustively and is the definitive reference for the SDK.
RTI Connext DDS provides comprehensive support for configurability and Quality of Service (QoS). Applications can take advantage of this to prioritize the different data Topics and message-flows, control the amount of history maintained by the middleware caches, ensure reliable delivery of information, accommodate low-bandwidth or high-latency links, etc. The following cheat-sheet provides a convenient summary of all the QoS policies.
Once you begin active development, you will want to consult the extensive API documentation. RTI Connext supports C, C++, Java, and .NET (C# and C++/CLI). For information on each of these languages, click the appropriate link below:
- C API Reference
- C++ Traditional API Reference
- C++ Modern API Reference
- .NET API Reference

RTI Connext DDS Pluggable Transport API
The Connext DDS Transport-Plugin API presents an abstract communication model that is independent of underlying physical transport devices. This API is used by the higher layers of Connext DDS to send and receive messages. The use of this API enables applications to use virtually any physical transport that can carry data from one application node to another.
Code that implements the Connext DDS Transport-Plugin API can be plugged into the Connext DDS middleware either by directly linking into the Connext DDS executable, or configuring the ParticipantQoS to load a dynamic library.
For information on how to write and configure a new Transport Plugin, consult the following documentation:
