Detailed Description

<<extension>> Configures the distribution of event metrics.

Event metrics are provided to the RTI Observability Library when they change.

For example, if the liveliness of a dds::pub::DataWriter is lost, a matching dds::sub::DataReader will push the new value of dds::core::status::LivelinessChangedStatus to the RTI Observability Library so that the liveliness status change can be distributed.

There are three kinds of event metrics:

  • Configuration metrics: Provided to the RTI Observability Library by pushing changes to QoS policies.
  • Status metrics: Provided to the RTI Observability Library by pushing changes to the event statuses such as dds::core::status::LivelinessChangedStatus.
  • Resource metrics: Provided to the RTI Observability Library when a resource (such as dds::pub::DataWriter) is created or deleted.

◆ concurrency_level() [1/2]

MonitoringEventDistributionSettings & rti::core::MonitoringEventDistributionSettings::concurrency_level ( uint32_t  the_concurrency_level)

Defines how concurrent the push is of event metrics to the RTI Observability Library.

With a concurrency_level of one, all the event metrics pushed to the RTI Observability Library will be stored in a single queue protected by a single mutex.

With a concurrency_level of 'n', the RTI Observability Library will create 'n' queues for event metrics, each queue protected by its own mutex. Each resource (e.g, a dds::sub::DataReader) will be associated with one of the queues when the resource is registered with the RTI Observability Library. Therefore, all the event metrics for a single resource always go to the same queue.

The event metrics for two resources associated with different event queues can be pushed in parallel. This is why a higher concurrency_level provides more concurrency.

The event metrics added to the event queues are processed by a single thread configured using rti::core::MonitoringEventDistributionSettings::thread.

[default] 5

[range] [1, 100]

◆ concurrency_level() [2/2]

uint32_t rti::core::MonitoringEventDistributionSettings::concurrency_level ( ) const

Getter (see setter with the same name).

◆ datawriter_qos_profile_name() [1/3]

MonitoringEventDistributionSettings & rti::core::MonitoringEventDistributionSettings::datawriter_qos_profile_name ( const rti::core::optional_value< std::string > &  the_datawriter_qos_profile_name)

Sets The fully qualified name of the profile used to configure the dds::pub::DataWriter that distributes event metrics.

Parameters
the_datawriter_qos_profile_nameAn optional string. An unset value indicates that the RTI Observability Library uses rti::core::builtin_profiles::qos_lib::generic_observability().

[default] Unset

The dds::pub::DataWriter Topic is MONITORING_EVENT_TOPIC_NAME.

If null (the default value), then the RTI Observability Library uses rti::core::builtin_profiles::qos_lib::generic_observability().

[default] null

◆ datawriter_qos_profile_name() [2/3]

MonitoringEventDistributionSettings & rti::core::MonitoringEventDistributionSettings::datawriter_qos_profile_name ( const char *  the_datawriter_qos_profile_name)

Sets The fully qualified name of the profile used to configure the dds::pub::DataWriter that distributes event metrics.

Parameters
the_datawriter_qos_profile_nameThe profile name. Cannot be NULL.

The dds::pub::DataWriter Topic is MONITORING_EVENT_TOPIC_NAME.

If null (the default value), then the RTI Observability Library uses rti::core::builtin_profiles::qos_lib::generic_observability().

[default] null

◆ datawriter_qos_profile_name() [3/3]

rti::core::optional_value< std::string > rti::core::MonitoringEventDistributionSettings::datawriter_qos_profile_name ( ) const

Getter (see setter with the same name).

◆ thread() [1/3]

MonitoringEventDistributionSettings & rti::core::MonitoringEventDistributionSettings::thread ( const rti::core::ThreadSettings the_thread)

The settings of the event metric thread.

The event metric thread periodically publishes the event metrics pushed into the RTI Observability Library event metric queues after they change their values.

The thread runs at the period configured using rti::core::MonitoringEventDistributionSettings::publication_period.

[default] DDS_THREAD_SETTINGS_DEFAULT

◆ thread() [2/3]

const rti::core::ThreadSettings & rti::core::MonitoringEventDistributionSettings::thread ( ) const

Getter (see setter with the same name).

◆ thread() [3/3]

rti::core::ThreadSettings & rti::core::MonitoringEventDistributionSettings::thread ( )

Getter (see setter with the same name).

◆ publication_period() [1/2]

MonitoringEventDistributionSettings & rti::core::MonitoringEventDistributionSettings::publication_period ( const dds::core::Duration the_publication_period)

Period at which the event metric thread publishes the event metrics that have changed since the last time they were published.

With a period of 0 seconds, changes to event metrics will be published immediately after they are pushed into the RTI Observability Library.

[default] 5 seconds

◆ publication_period() [2/2]

dds::core::Duration rti::core::MonitoringEventDistributionSettings::publication_period ( ) const

Getter (see setter with the same name)
