DDS_Boolean DDS_WriteParams_t::replace_auto |
Allows retrieving the actual value of those fields that were automatic.
When this field is set, the fields that were configured with an automatic value (for example, DDS_AUTO_SAMPLE_IDENTITY) receive their actual value after FooDataWriter_write_w_params is called.
To reset those fields to their automatic value after calling FooDataWriter_write_w_params, use DDS_WriteParams_reset
struct DDS_SampleIdentity_t DDS_WriteParams_t::identity |
Identity of the sample.
Identifies the sample being written. The identity consists of a pair (Virtual Writer GUID, Virtual Sequence Number).
Use the default value to let RTI Connext determine the sample identity as follows:
The virtual sequence numbers for a virtual writer must be strictly monotonically increasing. If the user tries to write a sample with a sequence number smaller or equal to the last sequence number, the write operation will fail.
A DataReader can access the identity of a received sample by using the fields DDS_SampleInfo::original_publication_virtual_guid and DDS_SampleInfo::original_publication_virtual_sequence_number in the DDS_SampleInfo.
[default] DDS_AUTO_SAMPLE_IDENTITY.
struct DDS_SampleIdentity_t DDS_WriteParams_t::related_sample_identity |
The identity of another sample related to this one.
Identifies another sample that is logically related to the one that is written.
When this field is set, the related sample identity is propagated and subscribing applications can retrieve it from the DDS_SampleInfo (see DDS_SampleInfo_get_related_sample_identity).
The default value is DDS_UNKNOWN_SAMPLE_IDENTITY, and is not propagated.
A DataReader can access the related identity of a received sample by using the fields DDS_SampleInfo::related_original_publication_virtual_guid and DDS_SampleInfo::related_original_publication_virtual_sequence_number in the DDS_SampleInfo.
[default] DDS_UNKNOWN_SAMPLE_IDENTITY
struct DDS_Time_t DDS_WriteParams_t::source_timestamp |
Source timestamp upon write.
Specifies the source timestamp that will be available to the DDS_DataReader objects by means of the source_timestamp
attribute within the DDS_SampleInfo.
[default] DDS_TIME_INVALID.
struct DDS_Cookie_t DDS_WriteParams_t::cookie |
Octet sequence identifying written data sample.
Used in the callback DDS_DataWriterListener::on_sample_removed to associate a removed sample with a written sample.
[default] Empty sequence (zero-length).
DDS_InstanceHandle_t DDS_WriteParams_t::handle |
Instance handle.
Either the handle returned by a previous call to FooDataWriter_register_instance, or else the special value DDS_HANDLE_NIL.
[default] DDS_HANDLE_NIL
DDS_Long DDS_WriteParams_t::priority |
Publication priority.
A positive integer value designating the relative priority of the sample, used to determine the transmission order of pending writes.
Use of publication priorities requires an asynchronous publisher (DDS_ASYNCHRONOUS_PUBLISH_MODE_QOS) with DDS_FlowControllerProperty_t::scheduling_policy set to DDS_HPF_FLOW_CONTROLLER_SCHED_POLICY.
Larger numbers have higher priority.
For multi-channel DataWriters, the publication priority of a sample may be used as a filter criteria for determining channel membership.
If the publication priority of the parent DataWriter, or for multi-channel DataWriters, if the publication priority of the parent channel, is set to DDS_PUBLICATION_PRIORITY_AUTOMATIC, then the DataWriter or channel will be assigned the priority of the largest publication priority of all samples in the DataWriter or channel.
If the publication priority of the parent DataWriter, and for multi-channel DataWriters, if the publication priority of the parent channel, are set to DDS_PUBLICATION_PRIORITY_UNDEFINED, then the DataWriter or channel will be assigned the lowest priority, regardless of the value of the publication priorities of samples written to the DataWriter or channel.
The publication priority of each sample can be set in the DDS_WriteParams_t of FooDataWriter_write_w_params.
For dispose and unregister samples, use the DDS_WriteParams_t of FooDataWriter_dispose_w_params and FooDataWriter_unregister_instance_w_params.
[default] 0 (lowest priority)
DDS_SampleFlag DDS_WriteParams_t::flag |
Flags associated with the sample.
The flags are represented as a 32-bit integer, of which only the 16 least-significant bits are used.
RTI reserves least-significant bits [0-7] for middleware-specific usage.
The application can use least-significant bits [8-15].
The first bit (DDS_REDELIVERED_SAMPLE) is reserved for marking samples as redelivered when using RTI Queuing Service.
The second bit (DDS_INTERMEDIATE_REPLY_SEQUENCE_SAMPLE) is used to indicate that a response sample is not the last response sample for a given request. This bit is usually set by a Replier sending multiple responses for a request.
An application can inspect the flags associated with a received sample by checking the field DDS_SampleInfo::flag.
[default] 0 (no flags are set)
struct DDS_GUID_t DDS_WriteParams_t::source_guid |
Identifies the application logical data source associated with the sample being written.
When this field is set, the source_guid is propagated and subscribing applications can retrieve it from the DDS_SampleInfo (see DDS_SampleInfo::source_guid).
The default value is DDS_GUID_AUTO, and is not propagated.
This field is used by RTI Connext in the following cases:
You can use this field for your own purposes unless you are using Queuing Service or Routing Service as described above.
[default] DDS_GUID_AUTO (the source_guid is automatically set to the DDS_DataWriter virtual GUID).
struct DDS_GUID_t DDS_WriteParams_t::related_source_guid |
Identifies the application logical data source that is related to the sample being written.
When this field is set, the related_source_guid is propagated and subscribing applications can retrieve it from the DDS_SampleInfo (see DDS_SampleInfo::related_source_guid).
This field and DDS_WriteParams_t::source_guid are used by RTI Queuing Service, to ensure that replies are correctly routed back to the requester in request/reply scenarios.
The default value is DDS_GUID_UNKNOWN, and is not propagated.
[default] DDS_GUID_UNKNOWN
struct DDS_GUID_t DDS_WriteParams_t::related_reader_guid |
Identifies a DataReader that is logically related to the sample that is being written.
When this field is set, the related_reader_guid is propagated and subscribing applications can retrieve it from the DDS_SampleInfo (see DDS_SampleInfo::related_subscription_guid).
The default value is DDS_GUID_UNKNOWN, and is not propagated.
The main use case for this field is point-to-point sample distribution using CFT. DataReaders install a CFT on the related_reader_guid using a unique GUID. For example, the filter for DataReader 'n' can be:
Then, a DataWriter that wants to send the sample to DataReader 'n' will use the FooDataWriter_write_w_params function and set related_reader_guid to the value used by DataReader 'n' in its filter expression.
This field is currently used by RTI Queuing Service to distribute a sample to only one of the Consumer's DataReaders attached to a SharedReaderQueue.
[default] DDS_GUID_UNKNOWN
