Why does my subscriber report multiple liveliness change events when I kill my publisher?

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. ...

What might cause a segmentation fault while reading data? Why do I see an unexpected data sequence length?

Note: Applies to RTI Data Distribution Service 4.1 and 4.2 If a non-keyed DataReader calls take() or read() while max_samples (in the ResourceLimitsQosPolicy ) is LENGTH_UNLIMITED (the default), and, the available data is greater than max_samples_per_read (in the DataReaderResourceLimitsQosPolicy ...

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 ...

How do I minimize the memory footprint and avoid dynamic memory allocation?

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 ...

How do I eliminate the long startup delay on some VxWorks targets with no file system?

Note: Applies to RTI Connext 4.x and above. RTI Connext calls fopen() to load the default XML and NDDS_DISCOVERY_PEERS files if they exist. On some VxWorks targets that either have no file system or use NFS, FTP, or some other network-based file system, and the file system is not mounted, RTI ...

Why does rtiddsgen require a C preprocessor for its code generation? Why does rtiddsgen try to locate cc1plus?

Before processing an IDL file, rtiddsgen attempts to run a C preprocessor to support #if tests and related preprocessor directives. There are several options you can pass to rtiddsgen to control preprocessor use, including: -ppDisable (formerly -ppNotRun ) : Don't use the C preprocessor -ppPath : ...
