Detailed Description

This class contains RTI Distributed Logger configurable options.

Use this API to customize RTI Distributed Logger to adapt it to your needs. Assign the newly created RTI_DLOptions object to RTI Distributed Logger singleton before calling to RTI_DLDistLogger::getInstance.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

RTI_DLOptions::RTI_DLOptions ( )

Default constructor.

Allocates memory for a RTI_DLOptions class and sets the default values needed to create the DL.

See Also
~RTI_DLOptions()
RTI_DLOptions::~RTI_DLOptions ( )

Default destructor.

Frees RTI_DLOptions class. Checks whether the pointer exists or not. If domainParticipant was assigned, its memory is not released.

Member Function Documentation

DDS_DomainParticipant* RTI_DLOptions::getCDomainParticipantI ( )

Gets current C DomainParticipant.

If a customized DomainParticipant have been set, this function returns a pointer to the internal C DomainParticipant that will be used to create DDS entities (Topics, Publishers, Subscribers, DataWriters, and DataReaders) needed by RTI Distributed Logger. The default value is NULL.

Returns
Pointer to the DDS_DomainParticipant contained in the class. Otherwise, NULL.
DDS_ReturnCode_t RTI_DLOptions::setDomainParticipant ( DDSDomainParticipant *  domainParticipant)

Sets current DomainParticipant.

There are several use cases in which you may want to use your own DomainParticipant to create RTI Distributed Logger internal DDS entities. By calling this function, you will have control of the DomainParticipant used by RTI Distributed Logger. Once assigned, domainParticipant will be used to create the DDS entities (Topics, Publishers, Subscribers, DataWriters, & DataReaders) needed by RTI Distributed Logger.

When the DomainParticipant is set to a non-NULL value it is the user's responsibility to handle the memory associated with it.

Parameters
[in]domainParticipantPointer to a valid DDS_DomainParticipant
Postcondition
Memory must be released by the user after finalizing RTI Distributed Logger using RTI_DLDistLogger::finalizeInstance.
bool RTI_DLOptions::isRemoteAdministrationEnabled ( )

Sets current DomainParticipant.

If true, remote administration Topics will be created and used. If false, they will not be created. The default value is true.

Returns
true if the Remote Administration is enabled. Otherwise false.
DDS_ReturnCode_t RTI_DLOptions::setRemoteAdministrationEnabled ( bool  enabled)

Enables or disables remote administration.

Sets remote administration of the Topics to the value passed as parameter.

Parameters
[in]enabledBoolean indicating new remote administration value.
int RTI_DLOptions::getFilterLevel ( )

Gets the log filter level.

Supported Filter Levels: See the IDL file provided with RTI Distributed Logger (<RTI Connext Installation Folder>/resource/idl/distlog.idl)

The default value is RTI_DL_INFO_LEVEL. See setFilterLevel() for more information on filter levels.

Returns
integer containing the log filter level of the options.
See Also
RTI_DLDistLogger::setFilterLevel
DDS_ReturnCode_t RTI_DLOptions::setFilterLevel ( int  filterLevel)

Sets the log filter level.

Filtering controls what type of log messages are sent. This enables filtering on the sending side (in the application using RTI Distributed Logger). You can also enable filtering on the receiving side (such as in a tool that receives log messages, like RTI Admin Console or RTI Monitor).

Supported Filter Levels: See the IDL file provided with RTI Distributed Logger (<RTI Connext Installation Folder>/resource/idl/distlog.idl). The default value is RTI_DL_INFO_LEVEL.

Parameters
[in]filterLevelThe log filter level of the options (see above).
Returns
Error code. DDS_RETCODE_OK if everything goes as planned.
See Also
RTI_DLDistLogger::setFilterLevel
int RTI_DLOptions::getDomainId ( )

Gets the current Domain ID.

Returns the Domain ID to be used by RTI Distributed Logger. This value is only used if setDomainParticipant has NOT been called. Otherwise, the Domain ID used is the one of the DomainParticipant assigned.

The default value is 0.

Returns
Integer containing the DDS Domain ID where RTI Distributed Logger instance will be created.
DDS_ReturnCode_t RTI_DLOptions::setDomainId ( int  domainId)

Sets the current Domain ID.

Updated the Domain ID to be used by RTI Distributed Logger. This value is only used if setDomainParticipant has NOT been called. Otherwise, the Domain ID used is the one of the DomainParticipant assigned.

The default value is 0.

Parameters
[in]domainIdInt representing a DDS Domain ID. Max value: 250
Returns
DDS_RETCODE_OK if the operation was a success.
char* RTI_DLOptions::getQosLibrary ( )

Gets the Qos Library that will be used to create to RTI Distributed Logger.

The QoS library name to use when creating DDS entities. It is up to the application to ensure that this library is available at run time for RTI Distributed Logger to use. The default value is "".

Returns
String containing the current Qos Library. Do not modify the content of this pointer directly nor delete it.
DDS_ReturnCode_t RTI_DLOptions::setQosLibrary ( const char *  qosLibrary)
