6.2.14. XML Configuration
6.2.14.1. [Major] Creating Topic-specific entities from a <qos_profile> using QoS profile inheritance and/or composition returned incorrect values
Topic-specific entities include DataWriter, DataReader and Topic.
Their corresponding tags <datareader_qos>, <datawriter_qos> and
<topic_qos> contain the topic_filter attribute that allows you
to indicate which Topic name the XML values should be used for. The
internal mechanism of the Core Libraries XML parser had a bug where
incorrect values could be returned from a <qos_profile> when the
following conditions were true:
The
<qos_profile>used QoS Profile inheritance and/or composition, where the parent QoS Profiles contained any of the above Topic-specific entities.The
<qos_profile>did not contain the QoS tag for the Topic-specific entity being created by pointing to it: for example, in the C API, if you calledDDS_DomainParticipant_create_datawriter_with_profile()on a<qos_profile>that did not contain a<datawriter_qos>tag.
This issue has been resolved.

6.2.14.2. [Major] Using languageBinding attribute on union types in XML caused parsing error
When a union type that used the languageBinding attribute was created in XML, a parsing error would result. This issue has been fixed.

6.2.14.3. [Minor] configuration_variables tag was not effective
The <configuration_variables> tag was visible and accepted by the
Connext .xsd files, but it had no effect: the configured values were
not used by the Core Libraries to set the value of XML-defined
environment variables. This has been corrected. Now, the
<configuration_variables> tag can be used to define default values for
XML-defined environment variables, which will take effect if those
environment variables are not set on the terminal.

6.2.14.4. [Minor] Incorrect parsing of data_representation attribute in XML type definitions
The type attribute data_representation was not parsed correctly. This
could result in a type requiring a different representation (XCDR1,
XCDR2, or both) than defined by the XML for the type.
