Detailed Description

A sample of any complex data type, which can be inspected and manipulated reflectively.

Objects of type DDS_DynamicData represent corresponding objects of the type identified by their DDS_TypeCode. Because the definition of these types may not have existed at compile time on the system on which the application is running, you will interact with the data using an API of reflective getters and setters.

For example, if you had access to your data types at compile time, you could do this:

theValue = theObject.theField; 

Instead, you will do something like this:

theValue = get(theObject, "theField"); 

DDS_DynamicData objects can represent any complex data type, including those of type kinds DDS_TK_ARRAY, DDS_TK_SEQUENCE, DDS_TK_STRUCT, DDS_TK_UNION, and DDS_TK_VALUE. They cannot represent objects of basic types (e.g. integers and strings). Since those type definitions always exist on every system, you can examine their objects directly.

Member Names and IDs

The members of a data type can be identified in one of two ways: by their name or by their numeric ID. The former is often more transparent to human users; the latter is typically faster.

You define the name and ID of a type member when you add that member to that type. If you define your type in IDL or XML, the name will be the field name that appears in the type definition; the ID will be the one-based index of the field in declaration order. For example, in the following IDL structure, the ID of theLong is 2.

struct MyNestedType { 
     char theChar; 
     octet theOctetArray[10]; 
     long long theMultidimensionalArray[4][6][12];
     sequence<long> myArrayOfSeq[8]; 
 }; 
 
 struct MyType { 
     short theShort; 
     long theLong; 
     MyNestedType theNestedType; 
 }; 

For unions (DDS_TK_UNION), the ID of a member is the discriminator value corresponding to that member. To access the current discriminator of a union, you must use the DDS_DynamicData::get_member_info_by_index operation on the DynamicData object using an index value of 0. This operation fills in a DDS_DynamicDataMemberInfo, then you can access the populated DDS_DynamicDataMemberInfo::member_id field to get the current discriminator. Once you know the value of the discriminator, you can use it in the proper get/set_xxx() operations to access and set the member's value. Here is an example of accessing the discriminator:

DynamicDataMemberInfo memberInfo; 
 myDynamicData.get_member_info_by_index(memberInfo, 0); 
 DynamicDataMemberId discriminatorValue = memberInfo.member_id; 
 DDS_Long myMemberValue = myDynamicData.get_long(NULL, discriminatorValue); 

Hierarchical Member Names

It is possible to refer to a nested member in a type without first having to use the DDS_DynamicData::bind_complex_member API. You can do this by using a hierarchical name. A hierarchical member name is a concatenation of member names separated by the '.' character. The hierarchical name describes the complete path from a top-level type to the nested member. For example, in the above type, any DynamicData API that receives a member name will accept "theNestedType.theChar" to refer to the char member in MyNestedType:

char myChar = myDynamicData.get_char("theNestedType.theChar", DDS_DYNAMIC_DATA_MEMBER_ID_UNSPECIFIED); 

In order to access the value of theChar without using a hierarchical name, you would have to first bind to theNestedType and then get the value:

myDynamicData.bind_complex_member(myBoundData, "theNestedType", DDS_DYNAMIC_DATA_MEMBER_ID_UNSPECIFIED); 
 DDS_Char myChar = myBoundData.get_char("theChar", DDS_DYNAMIC_DATA_MEMBER_ID_UNSPECIFIED); 

As you can see, using a hierarchical member name removes the need to call the DDS_DynamicData::bind_complex_member and DDS_DynamicData::unbind_complex_member APIs, and allows for access to nested members at any depth directly from the top-level type.

The member name can also contain indexes to address members in arrays and sequences. For example, to set the third member in the array theOctetArray, you can pass in "theNestedType.theOctetArray[2]" as the member name to the DDS_DynamicData::set_octet API. The index values when used as part of the member name are 0-based.

For multi-dimensional arrays, the indexes for each dimension should be listed comma-separated in between brackets. For example, to address a member of theMultidimensionalArray, the member name should be something like "theNestedType.theMultidimensionalArray[3,2,5]".

In complex types with arrays and sequences that contain other arrays and sequences, the hierarchical name may include multiple index values, one right after another. For example, in MyNestedType, myArrayOfSeq is an array of sequences. In order to set the third member of the sequence in the fourth member of the array, the member name would be "myNestedType.myArrayOfSeq[3][2]".

Arrays and Sequences

The "members" of array and sequence types, unlike those of structure and union types, don't have names or explicit member IDs. However, they may nevertheless be accessed by "ID": the ID is one more than the index. (The first element has ID 1, the second 2, etc.)

Multi-dimensional arrays are effectively flattened by this pattern. For example, for an array theArray[4][5], accessing ID 7 is equivalent to index 6, or the second element of the second group of 5.

To determine the length of a collection-typed member of a structure or union, you have two choices:

1. Get the length along with the data: call the appropriate array accessor (see Getters and Setters) and check the resulting length.
2. Get the length without getting the data itself: call DDS_DynamicData::get_member_info and check the resulting DDS_DynamicDataMemberInfo::element_count.

Available Functionality

The Dynamic Data API is large when measured by the number of methods it contains. But each method falls into one of a very small number of categories. You will find it easier to navigate this documentation if you understand these categories.

Lifecycle and Utility Methods

Managing the lifecycle of DDS_DynamicData objects is simple. You have two choices:

1. Usually, you will go through a DDSDynamicDataTypeSupport factory object, which will ensure that the type and property information for the new DDS_DynamicData object corresponds to a registered type in your system.
2. In certain advanced cases, such as when you're navigating a nested structure, you will want to have a DDS_DynamicData object that is not bound up front to any particular type, or you will want to initialize the object in a custom way. In that case, you can call the constructor directly.

Lifecycle

DDSDynamicDataTypeSupport	DDS_DynamicData
DDSDynamicDataTypeSupport::create_data	DDS_DynamicData::DDS_DynamicData(const DDS_TypeCode *, const DDS_DynamicDataProperty_t &)
DDSDynamicDataTypeSupport::delete_data	DDS_DynamicData::~DDS_DynamicData

You can also copy DDS_DynamicData objects:

• DDS_DynamicData::copy
• DDS_DynamicData::operator=

You can test them for equality:

• DDS_DynamicData::equal

Getters and Setters

Most methods get or set the value of some field. These methods are named according to the type of the field they access.

The names of types vary across languages. The programming API for each language reflects that programming language. However, if your chosen language does not use the same names as the language that you used to define your types (e.g., IDL), or if you need to interoperate among programming languages, you will need to understand these differences. They are explained the following table. (Note: for modern C++, see the RTI Connext Modern C++ API reference.)

When working with a DDS_DynamicData object representing an array or sequence, calling one of the "get" methods below for an index that is out of bounds will result in DDS_RETCODE_NO_DATA. Calling "set" for an index that is past the end of a sequence will cause that sequence to automatically lengthen (filling with default contents).

When working with a DDS_DynamicData object whose type contains optional members, calling one of the "get" methods below on an unset optional member or any member that is part of an unset complex optional member will result in DDS_RETCODE_NO_DATA.

In addition to getting or setting a field, you can "clear" its value; that is, set it to a default zero value.

• DDS_DynamicData::clear_all_members
• DDS_DynamicData::clear_optional_member

Query and Iteration

Not all components of your application will have static knowledge of all of the fields of your type. Sometimes, you will want to query meta-data about the fields that appear in a given data sample.

• DDS_DynamicData::get_type
• DDS_DynamicData::get_type_kind
• DDS_DynamicData::get_member_type
• DDS_DynamicData::get_member_info
• DDS_DynamicData::get_member_count
• DDS_DynamicData::get_member_info_by_index
• DDS_DynamicData::member_exists
• DDS_DynamicData::member_exists_in_type
• DDS_DynamicData::is_member_key

Type/Object Association

Sometimes, you may want to change the association between a data object and its type. This is not something you can do with a typical object, but with DDS_DynamicData objects, it is a powerful capability. It allows you to, for example, examine nested structures without copying them by using a "bound" DDS_DynamicData object as a view into an enclosing DDS_DynamicData object.

• DDS_DynamicData::bind_type
• DDS_DynamicData::unbind_type
• DDS_DynamicData::bind_complex_member
• DDS_DynamicData::unbind_complex_member

Keys

Keys can be specified in dynamically defined types just as they can in types defined in generated code.

MT Safety:

UNSAFE. In general, using a single DDS_DynamicData object concurrently from multiple threads is unsafe.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

DDS_DynamicData::DDS_DynamicData	(	const DDS_TypeCode *	type,
		const DDS_DynamicDataProperty_t &	property
	)

The constructor for new DDS_DynamicData objects.

The type parameter may be NULL. In that case, this DDS_DynamicData must be bound with DDS_DynamicData::bind_type or DDS_DynamicData::bind_complex_member before it can be used.

If the DDS_TypeCode is not NULL, the newly constructed DDS_DynamicData object will retain a reference to it. It is not safe to delete the DDS_TypeCode until all samples that use it have themselves been deleted.

In most cases, it is not necessary to call this constructor explicitly. Instead, use DDSDynamicDataTypeSupport::create_data, and the DDS_TypeCode and properties will be specified for you. Using the factory method also ensures that the memory management contract documented above is followed correctly, because the DDSDynamicDataTypeSupport object maintains the DDS_TypeCode used by the samples it creates.

However you create a DDS_DynamicData object, you must delete it when you are finished with it. If you choose to use this constructor, delete the object with the destructor: DDS_DynamicData::~DDS_DynamicData.

DDS_DynamicData* sample = new DDS_DynamicData( 
     myType, myProperties); 
 // Failure indicated by is_valid() method. 
 // Do something... 
 delete sample; 

NOTE that RTI Connext does not explicitly generate any exceptions in this constructor, because C++ exception support is not consistent across all platforms on which RTI Connext runs. Therefore, to check whether construction succeeded, you must use the DDS_DynamicData::is_valid method. Alternatively, you can create an DDS_DynamicData object with DDSDynamicDataTypeSupport::create_data, which returns NULL on failure, eliminating the need to call DDS_DynamicData::is_valid.

Parameters

type	<<in>> The type of which the new object will represent an object.
property	<<in>> Properties that configure the behavior of the new object. Most users can simply use DDS_DYNAMIC_DATA_PROPERTY_DEFAULT.

Member Function Documentation

DDS_Boolean DDS_DynamicData::is_valid

(

)

const

Indicates whether the object was constructed properly.

This method returns DDS_BOOLEAN_TRUE if the constructor succeeded; it returns DDS_BOOLEAN_FALSE if the constructor failed for any reason, which should also have resulted in a log message. It is only necessary to call this method if you created the DDS_DynamicData object using the constructor, DDS_DynamicData::DDS_DynamicData(const DDS_TypeCode *, const DDS_DynamicDataProperty_t &).

Possible failure reasons include passing an invalid type or invalid properties to the constructor.

This method is necessary because C++ exception support is not consistent across all of the platforms on which RTI Connext runs. Therefore, the implementation does not throw any exceptions in the constructor.

DDS_ReturnCode_t DDS_DynamicData::clear_optional_member	(	const char *	member_name,
		DDS_DynamicDataMemberId	member_id
	)

Clear the contents of a single optional data member of this object.

This method is only applicable to optional members. Members of unions, sequences, and arrays are not considered optional.

MT Safety:

UNSAFE.

Parameters

member_name	<<in>> The name of the member (to look up the member by name), or NULL (to look up the member by its ID).
member_id	<<in>> The ID of the member (to look up the member by its ID), or DDS_DYNAMIC_DATA_MEMBER_ID_UNSPECIFIED (to look up the member by name). See Member Names and IDs.

DDS_DynamicData::clear_all_members

DDS_ReturnCode_t DDS_DynamicData::set_buffer	(	DDS_Octet *	storage,
		DDS_Long	size
	)

[DEPRECATED] Associate a buffer with this dynamic data object.

The DynamicData object will use the input buffer to store its value.

If the DynamicData object already has a value, this function will clear the contents of all data members.

The memory of the buffer being replaced will be freed, unless the buffer was assigned by a previous call to this method.

If the size of the input buffer is not big enough to hold the future value of the DynamicData object, the set operations will return DDS_RETCODE_OUT_OF_RESOURCES when the size is exceeded.

The internal representation of a DynamicData object introduces additional overhead beyond the data representation of the equivalent C structure. When providing an input buffer, try to account for that overhead.

The method DDS_DynamicData::get_estimated_max_buffer_size can be used to obtain an estimated maximum size for the input buffer.

MT Safety:

UNSAFE.

Parameters

storage	<<in>> Storage buffer.
size	<<in>> Buffer size in bytes.

Returns

One of the Standard Return Codes

DDS_ReturnCode_t DDS_DynamicData::get_estimated_max_buffer_size

(

DDS_Long &

size

)

const

[DEPRECATED] Get the estimated maximum buffer size for a DynamicData object.

This method gets the estimated maximum buffer size of a DynamicData object based on the associated type.

Depending on how the members are set, the maximum size returned by this method may not be representative. For example, if variable-sized members (strings and sequences) are reset multiple times to various lengths, the underlying memory allocator used by the DynamicData implementation may be fragmented in such a way as to require more memory than is stricly required.

This method can be used to obtain the size of the buffer provided to the method DDS_DynamicData::set_buffer.

MT Safety:

UNSAFE.

Parameters

size	<<out>> Estimated maximum buffer size in bytes.

Returns

One of the Standard Return Codes

DDS_ReturnCode_t DDS_DynamicData::from_cdr_buffer	(	const char *	buffer,
		unsigned int	length
	)

Deserializes a DynamicData object from a buffer of octets.

This method deserializes a DynamicData object from a CDR buffer of octets.

The content of the buffer generated by the method DDS_DynamicData::to_cdr_buffer can be provided to this method to get the DynamicData object back.

Parameters

buffer	<<in>>. Deserialization buffer.
length	<<in>>. Length of the serialized representation of the DynamicData object in the buffer.

Returns

One of the Standard Return Codes

DDS_ReturnCode_t DDS_DynamicData::to_cdr_buffer	(	char *	buffer,
		unsigned int &	length
	)

Serializes a DynamicData object into a CDR buffer of octets.

This method serializes a DynamicData object into a buffer of octets, using CDR as the data representation. Calling this method is equivalent to calling DDS_DynamicData::to_cdr_buffer_ex with DDS_AUTO_DATA_REPRESENTATION as the representation.

The input buffer must be large enough to store the serialized representation of the DynamicData object. Otherwise, the method will return an error code.

To determine the minimum size of the input buffer, the user must call this method with the buffer set to NULL.

Parameters

buffer

<<out>>. Serialization buffer.

length

<<inout>>. When the buffer is set to NULL, after the method executes, length will contain the required size for the serialization buffer. When buffer is not NULL, length must contain the size of the input buffer when the method is invoked. After the method executes, length will be updated to contain the actual size of the serialized content, which may be smaller than the size obtained when buffer is set to NULL.

Returns

One of the Standard Return Codes

DDS_ReturnCode_t DDS_DynamicData::to_cdr_buffer_ex	(	char *	buffer,
		unsigned int &	length,
		DDS_DataRepresentationId_t	representation
	)

Serializes a DynamicData object into a buffer of octets.

This method serializes a DynamicData object into a buffer of octets using the input data representation. See DDS_DynamicData::to_cdr_buffer for details.

Parameters

buffer	<<out>>. Serialization buffer.
length	<<inout>>. Serialization buffer length.
representation	<<in>>. Representation used to serialize the data

DDS_ReturnCode_t DDS_DynamicData::to_string	(	char *	str,
		DDS_UnsignedLong &	str_size,
		const DDS_PrintFormatProperty &	property
	)

Get a string representation of a DynamicData object.

This method takes a dynamic data sample and creates a string representation of the data.

The input character buffer must be big enough to store the string representation of the sample. Otherwise, the method will return an error.

To determine the minimum size of the input character buffer, the user must call this method with the buffer set to NULL.

If the size of the output string is longer than the size of an unsigned 32-bit integer, this operation will fail with DDS_RETCODE_OUT_OF_RESOURCES.

Parameters

str	<<out>>. Output string representing the dynamic data sample.
str_size	<<inout>>. When str is set to NULL, after the method executes, str_size will contain a buffer size big enough to hold the string representation of the data. When str is not NULL, str_size must contain the size of the input buffer when the method is invoked. If the size of the input buffer is too small, after the method executes, str_size will be updated to contain the required size of the string content and the method will return DDS_RETCODE_OUT_OF_RESOURCES.
property	<<in>>. Properties describing what the format of the output string should be. Cannot be ull.

Returns

One of the Standard Return Codes, DDS_RETCODE_OUT_OF_RESOURCES

DDS_ReturnCode_t DDS_DynamicData::print	(	FILE *	fp,
		int	indent
	)		const

Output a textual representation of this object and its contents to the given file.

This method is equivalent to DDSDynamicDataTypeSupport::print_data.

MT Safety:

UNSAFE.

Parameters

fp	<<in>> The file into which the object should be printed, or null (to print to stdout)
indent	<<in>> The output of this method will be pretty-printed. This argument indicates the amount of initial indentation of the output.

Returns

One of the Standard Return Codes

)

const

<<out>> The descriptor object whose contents will be overwritten by this operation.

DDS_ReturnCode_t DDS_DynamicData::bind_type

(

const DDS_TypeCode *

type

)

If this DDS_DynamicData object is not yet associated with a data type, set that type now to the given DDS_TypeCode.

This advanced operation allows you to reuse a single DDS_DynamicData object with multiple data types.

DDS_DynamicData* myData = new DDS_DynamicData(NULL, myProperties); 
 DDS_TypeCode* myType = ...; 
 myData->bind_type(myType); 
 // Do something... 
 myData->unbind_type(); 
 delete myData; 

Note that the DDS_DynamicData object will retain a reference to the DDS_TypeCode object you provide. It is not safe to delete the DDS_TypeCode until after it is unbound.

MT Safety:

UNSAFE.

Parameters

type	<<in>> The type to associate with this DDS_DynamicData object.

Returns

One of the Standard Return Codes

See Also

DDS_DynamicData::unbind_type

DDS_ReturnCode_t DDS_DynamicData::unbind_type

(

)

Dissociate this DDS_DynamicData object from any particular data type.

This step is necessary before the object can be associated with a new data type.

This operation clears all members as a side effect.

MT Safety:

UNSAFE.

Returns

One of the Standard Return Codes

DDS_DynamicData::bind_type

DDS_DynamicData::clear_all_members

DDS_ReturnCode_t DDS_DynamicData::bind_complex_member	(	DDS_DynamicData &	value_out,
		const char *	member_name,
		DDS_DynamicDataMemberId	member_id
	)

Use another DDS_DynamicData object to provide access to a complex field of this DDS_DynamicData object.

For example, consider the following data types:

struct MyFieldType { 
     float theFloat; 
 }; 
 
 struct MyOuterType { 
     MyFieldType complexMember; 
 }; 

Suppose you have an instance of MyOuterType, and you would like to examine the contents of its member complexMember. To do this, you must bind another DDS_DynamicData object to that member. This operation will bind the type code of the member to the provided DDS_DynamicData object and perform additional initialization.

The following example demonstrates the usage pattern. Note that error handling has been omitted for brevity.

DDS_DynamicData outer = ...; 
 DDS_DynamicData toBeBound(NULL, myProperties); 
 outer.bind_complex_member( 
     toBeBound, 
     "complexMember", 
     DDS_DYNAMIC_DATA_MEMBER_ID_UNSPECIFIED); 
 float theFloatValue = 0.0f; 
 toBeBound.get_float( 
     theFloat, 
     "theFloat" 
     DDS_DYNAMIC_DATA_MEMBER_ID_UNSPECIFIED); 
 outer.unbind_complex_member(toBeBound); 

This operation is only permitted when the object toBeBound (named as in the example above) is not currently associated with any type, including already being bound to another member. You can see in the example that this object is created directly with the constructer and is not provided with a DDS_TypeCode.

Only a single member of a given DDS_DynamicData object may be bound at one time – however, members of members may be recursively bound to any depth. Furthermore, while the outer object has a bound member, it may only be modified through that bound member. That is, after calling this member, all "set" operations on the outer object will be disabled until DDS_DynamicData::unbind_complex_member has been called. Furthermore, any bound member must be unbound before a sample can be written or deleted.

This method is logically related to DDS_DynamicData::get_complex_member in that both allow you to examine the state of nested objects. They are different in an important way: this method provides a view into an outer object, such that any change made to the inner object will be reflected in the outer. But the DDS_DynamicData::get_complex_member operation copies the state of the nested object; changes to it will not be reflected in the source object.

Note that you can bind to a member of a sequence at an index that is past the current length of that sequence. In that case, this method behaves like a "set" method: it automatically lengthens the sequence (filling in default elements) to allow the bind to take place. See Getters and Setters.

MT Safety:

UNSAFE.

Parameters

value_out	<<out>> The object that you wish to bind to the field.
member_name	<<in>> The name of the member or NULL to look up the member by its ID.
member_id	<<in>> The ID of the member or DDS_DYNAMIC_DATA_MEMBER_ID_UNSPECIFIED to look up by name. See Member Names and IDs.

Returns

value

)

Copy the state of the given DDS_DynamicData object into a member of this object.

The member may be of type kind DDS_TK_ARRAY, DDS_TK_SEQUENCE, DDS_TK_STRUCT, DDS_TK_VALUE, or DDS_TK_UNION. It may be specified by name or by ID.

Example: Copying Data

This method can be used with DDS_DynamicData::bind_complex_member to copy from one DDS_DynamicData object to another efficiently. Suppose the following data structure:

struct Bar { 
     short theShort; 
 }; 
 
 struct Foo { 
     Bar theBar; 
 }; 

Suppose we have two instances of Foo, foo_dst and foo_src, and we want to replace the contents of foo_dst.theBar with the contents of foo_src.theBar. The following example shows how to do this (error handling has been omitted for the sake of brevity).

DDS_DynamicData* foo_dst = ...; 
 DDS_DynamicData* foo_src = ...; 
 DDS_DynamicData* bar = new DDS_DynamicData(NULL, myProperties); 
 // Point to the source of the copy: 
 foo_src->bind_complex_member( 
     bar, 
     "theBar", 
     DDS_DYNAMIC_DATA_MEMBER_ID_UNSPECIFIED); 
 // Just one copy: 
 foo_dst->set_complex_member( 
     "theBar", 
     DDS_DYNAMIC_DATA_MEMBER_ID_UNSPECIFIED, 
     bar); 
 // Tear down: 
 foo_src->unbind_complex_member(bar); 
 delete bar;
