Detailed Description

Controls the criteria used to determine the logical order among changes made by DDSPublisher entities to the same instance of data (i.e., matching DDSTopic and key).

Enumeration Type Documentation

Kinds of destination order.

QoS:
DDS_DestinationOrderQosPolicy
Enumerator:
DDS_BY_RECEPTION_TIMESTAMP_DESTINATIONORDER_QOS 

[default] Indicates that data is ordered based on the reception time at each DDSSubscriber.

Since each subscriber may receive the data at different times there is no guaranteed that the changes will be seen in the same order. Consequently, it is possible for each subscriber to end up with a different final value for the data.

DDS_BY_SOURCE_TIMESTAMP_DESTINATIONORDER_QOS 

Indicates that data is ordered based on a time-stamp placed at the source (by RTI Connext or by the application).

In any case this guarantees a consistent final value for the data in all subscribers.

Note: If Batching is needed along with DDS_BY_SOURCE_TIMESTAMP_DESTINATIONORDER_QOS and DDS_INSTANCE_SCOPE_DESTINATIONORDER_QOS, then the DDS_BatchQosPolicy::source_timestamp_resolution and DDS_BatchQosPolicy::thread_safe_write setting of DDS_BatchQosPolicy should be set to DDS_DURATION_ZERO and DDS_BOOLEAN_TRUE respectively.

Scope of source destination order.

QoS:
DDS_DestinationOrderQosPolicy
Enumerator:
DDS_INSTANCE_SCOPE_DESTINATIONORDER_QOS 

[default] Indicates that data is ordered on a per instance basis if used along with DDS_BY_SOURCE_TIMESTAMP_DESTINATIONORDER_QOS.

The tolerance check and the current sample's timestamp is computed based on a previously written DDS sample belonging to the same instance.

DDS_TOPIC_SCOPE_DESTINATIONORDER_QOS 

Indicates that data is ordered on a per topic basis if used along with DDS_BY_SOURCE_TIMESTAMP_DESTINATIONORDER_QOS.

The tolerance check and the current sample's timestamp is computed based on a previously written DDS sample belonging to any instance.
