4.3.1. QoS view now displays supported builtin endpoints for remote participants
The QoS view now displays data from the
available_builtin_endpoints_ext field in
ParticipantBuiltinTopicData. This field contains bits, converted to
human-readable strings, detailing which builtin endpoints are supported
by the remote DomainParticipants.
4.3.2. Support for exact_reliability_kind_match field of Reliability QoS enhances match analysis
Admin Console now recognizes and reports mismatches triggered by the
exact_reliability_kind_match field of the Reliability QoS Policy.
This enhancement provides:
Strict enforcement visibility. When a DataWriter enables
exact_reliability_kind_matchto require an identical reliability kind from its peers, Admin Console now explicitly flags any incompatible DataReaders.Clear diagnostic feedback. These instances are now categorized and displayed as Requested/Offered (RxO) QoS Mismatches, allowing you to quickly identify why entities are failing to match even if their other settings appear compatible.
