Member Enumeration Documentation

enum dds::core::policy::DestinationOrderKind_def::type

The underlying enum type.

Enumerator:

BY_RECEPTION_TIMESTAMP

[default] Indicates that data is ordered based on the reception time at each dds::sub::Subscriber. 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.

BY_SOURCE_TIMESTAMP

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::core::policy::DestinationOrderKind::BY_SOURCE_TIMESTAMP and dds::core::policy::DestinationOrderScopeKind::INSTANCE, then the rti::core::policy::Batch::source_timestamp_resolution and rti::core::policy::Batch::thread_safe_write setting of rti::core::policy::Batch should be set to dds::core::Duration::zero() and true respectively.
