Detailed Description
<<interface>> The most basic description of the data to be published and subscribed.
- QoS:
- DDS_TopicQos
- Listener:
- DDSTopicListener
A DDSTopic is identified by its name, which must be unique in the whole domain. In addition (by virtue of extending DDSTopicDescription) it fully specifies the type of the data that can be communicated when publishing or subscribing to the DDSTopic.
DDSTopic is the only DDSTopicDescription that can be used for publications and therefore associated with a DDSDataWriter.
The following operations may be called even if the DDSTopic is not enabled. Other operations will fail with the value DDS_RETCODE_NOT_ENABLED if called on a disabled DDSTopic:
- DDSEntity::enable
- DDSTopic::set_qos, DDSTopic::get_qos
- DDSTopic::set_qos_with_profile
- DDSTopic::set_listener, DDSTopic::get_listener
- DDSEntity::get_statuscondition, DDSEntity::get_status_changes
- DDSTopic::get_inconsistent_topic_status
- Examples:
- HelloWorld_publisher.cxx, and HelloWorld_subscriber.cxx.
Member Function Documentation
◆ narrow()
|
static |
Narrow the given DDSTopicDescription pointer to a DDSTopic pointer.
- Returns
- DDSTopic if this DDSTopicDescription is a DDSTopic. Otherwise, return NULL.
◆ get_inconsistent_topic_status()
|
pure virtual |
Allows the application to retrieve the DDS_INCONSISTENT_TOPIC_STATUS status of a DDSTopic.
Retrieve the current DDS_InconsistentTopicStatus
- Parameters
-
status <<inout>> Status to be retrieved.
- Returns
- One of the Standard Return Codes
- See also
- DDS_InconsistentTopicStatus
◆ set_qos()
|
pure virtual |
Set the topic QoS.
The DDS_TopicQos::topic_data and DDS_TopicQos::deadline, DDS_TopicQos::latency_budget, DDS_TopicQos::transport_priority and DDS_TopicQos::lifespan can be changed. The other policies are immutable.
Policies must be consistent. Immutable policies cannot be changed after DDSTopic is enabled. The special value DDS_TOPIC_QOS_DEFAULT can be used to indicate that the QoS of the DDSTopic should be changed to match the current default DDS_TopicQos set in the DDSDomainParticipant.
- Returns
- One of the Standard Return Codes, DDS_RETCODE_IMMUTABLE_POLICY if immutable policy is changed, or DDS_RETCODE_INCONSISTENT_POLICY if policies are inconsistent
- See also
- DDS_TopicQos for rules on consistency among QoS
- set_qos (abstract)
- Operations Allowed in Listener Callbacks
◆ set_qos_with_profile()
|
pure virtual |
<<extension>> Change the QoS of this topic using the input XML QoS profile.
The DDS_TopicQos::topic_data and DDS_TopicQos::deadline, DDS_TopicQos::latency_budget, DDS_TopicQos::transport_priority and DDS_TopicQos::lifespan can be changed. The other policies are immutable.
- Parameters
-
library_name <<in>> Library name containing the XML QoS profile. If library_name is null RTI Connext will use the default library (see DDSDomainParticipant::set_default_library). profile_name <<in>> XML QoS Profile name. If profile_name is null RTI Connext will use the default profile (see DDSDomainParticipant::set_default_profile).
- Returns
- One of the Standard Return Codes, DDS_RETCODE_IMMUTABLE_POLICY if immutable policy is changed, or DDS_RETCODE_INCONSISTENT_POLICY if policies are inconsistent
- See also
- DDS_TopicQos for rules on consistency among QoS
- Operations Allowed in Listener Callbacks
◆ get_qos()
|
pure virtual |
Get the topic QoS.
This method may potentially allocate memory depending on the sequences contained in some QoS policies.
- Parameters
-
qos <<inout>> QoS to be filled up.
- Returns
- One of the Standard Return Codes
- See also
- get_qos (abstract)
◆ set_listener()
|
pure virtual |
Set the topic listener.
- Parameters
-
l <<in>> Listener to be installed on entity. mask <<in>> Changes of communication status to be invoked on the listener. See DDS_StatusMask.
- Returns
- One of the Standard Return Codes
- See also
- set_listener (abstract)
◆ get_listener()
|
pure virtual |
Get the topic listener.
- Returns
- Existing listener attached to the DDSTopic.
- See also
- get_listener (abstract)
