How much shared memory is required by RTI Connext applications?

Note: Applies to RTI Connext 4.x and above. By default, every time you create a DDS participant with SHMEM transport enabled, the middleware creates two shared memory segments: one to receive discovery traffic and one to receive user traffic. Each one of the shared memory segments will contain a ...

Note: Applies to RTI Connext 4.x and above. Upon changing the liveliness lease duration of both the DataReader and DataWriter , and instrumenting the on_liveliness_changed() listener callback on the reader side, you will see the callback is called twice when you kill the publishing application. ...

How can I prevent deadlocks while invoking the RTI APIs from a Listener?

Note: Applies to RTI Connext 4.2 and above To prevent deadlocks, RTI uses mutexes to coordinate access to critical data and operations between threads. Mutexes are grouped in Exclusive Areas (EAs) code based on the regions they protect. However, deadlocks are still possible if you try to use ...

Note: Applies to RTI Connext 4.x and above. The first and foremost step to reducing the memory footprint is an architectural review. The number of topics, the queue sizes, whether or not you use keys, the number of domains, or the usage of partitions have a great impact on the memory footprint of ...

Why do I see a Java 'usage' error when I run rtiddsgen on Windows?

The short answer is that you need to remove the trailing backslash from your NDDSHOME environment variable. The rtiddsgen code generator calls a Java program within a batch script. This script passes %NDDSHOME% as a define argument to java. If NDDSHOME ends with a backslash, the shell escapes the ...

At what OSI layers does RTI Connext operate?

RTI Connext operates across the host layers (4,5,6,7) using an existing Network, Data Link and Physical layer. RTI Connext's Layer 4 interaction is a little bit open to interpretation; RTI Connext uses an existing layer 4 transport (UDP). The RTPS protocol adds reliability and other QoS to it to ...
