Detailed Description

Configuration of RTI Routing Service.

This structure must be initialized with RTI_RoutingServiceProperty_INITIALIZER.

Field Documentation

◆ cfg_file

char* RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::cfg_file

Path to an RTI Routing Service configuration file.

If not NULL, this file is loaded; otherwise, if cfg_strings is not NULL, that XML code is loaded.

[default] NULL.

◆ cfg_strings

const char** RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::cfg_strings

XML configuration represented as strings.

An array of strings that altogether make up an XML document to configure RTI Routing Service. This parameter is used only if cfg_file is NULL.

For example:

int MY_ROUTING_SERVICE_CFG_SIZE = 3;
const char * MY_ROUTING_SERVICE_CFG[MY_ROUTING_SERVICE_CFG_SIZE] =
{"<dds><routing_service>",
"<domain_route><participant_1><domai",
"n_id>0...</dds>"};
property.cfg_strings = MY_ROUTING_SERVICE_CFG;
property.cfg_strings_count = MY_ROUTING_SERVICE_CFG_SIZE;

The reason for using an array instead of one single string is to get around the limited size of literal strings in C. In general, if you create the XML string dynamically using one single string in the array, setting cfg_strings_count to 1 is enough:

property.cfg_strings = malloc(sizeof(char *));
property.cfg_strings[0] = "<dds><routing_service>...</dds>";
property.cfg_strings_count = 1;

If your target system doesn't support a file system, you can use XML strings to configure the service. To ease this process, a utility is shipped to generate a C string array from a text file. You can find this utility in [RTI Routing Service installation directory]/resource/perl/cStringifyFile.pl

[default] NULL.

◆ cfg_strings_count

int RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::cfg_strings_count

Size of the array cfg_strings.

[default] 0.

◆ service_name

char* RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::service_name

The name of the Routing Service instance to run.

This is the name used to find the <routing_service> XML tag in the configuration file; the name that will be used to refer to this execution in remote administration and monitoring.

[default] NULL (use RTI_RoutingService)

◆ application_name

char* RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::application_name

Assigns a name to the execution of the RTI Routing Service.

Remote commands and status information will refer to the routing service using this name. In addition, the name of DomainParticipants created by RTI Routing Service will be based on this name.

[default] service_name if this value is different than NULL. Otherwise, "RTI_Routing_Service".

◆ enforce_xsd_validation

DDS_Boolean RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::enforce_xsd_validation

Controls whether the service applies XSD validation to the loaded configuration.

[default] DDS_BOOLEAN_TRUE

◆ service_verbosity

int RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::service_verbosity

◆ dds_verbosity

int RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::dds_verbosity

The verbosity of RTI Connext core libraries.

Values:

[default] RTI_ROUTING_SERVICE_LOG_VERBOSITY_EXCEPTIONS

◆ domain_id_base

int RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::domain_id_base

Value that is added to the domain IDs of the domain routes in the XML configuration.

By using this, an XML file can use relative domain IDs.

[default] 0

◆ plugin_search_path

char* RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::plugin_search_path

This path is used to look for plug-in libraries.

If the plug-in class libraries specified in the XML file don't contain a full path, RTI Routing Service looks for them in this directory. If not present, it will rely on the system library path.

[default] NULL (current directory)

◆ dont_start_service

DDS_Boolean RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::dont_start_service

Set this to true to if you do not want RTI Routing Service enabled when RTI_RoutingService_start is called.

RTI Routing Service can be enabled afterwards through remote administration.

[default] DDS_BOOLEAN_FALSE

◆ enable_administration

DDS_Boolean RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::enable_administration

Set this to true to enable remote administration or false to disable it.

[default] DDS_BOOLEAN_FALSE

◆ administration_domain_id

int RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::administration_domain_id

If enable_administration is true, this is the domain ID to use for remote administration.

Takes precedence over the XML configuration. If enable_administration is false, this value is not used even if remote administration is enabled in the XML configuration.

[default] 0

◆ enable_monitoring

DDS_Boolean RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::enable_monitoring

Set it to true to enable remote monitoring or false to disable it.

[default] DDS_BOOLEAN_FALSE

◆ monitoring_domain_id

int RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::monitoring_domain_id

If enable_monitoring is true, this is the domain ID to use for remote monitoring.

Takes precedence over the XML configuration. If enable_monitoring is false, this value is not used, even if remote monitoring is enabled in the XML configuration.

[default] 0

◆ skip_default_files

DDS_Boolean RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::skip_default_files

Set it to true to avoid loading the standard files usually loaded by RTI Routing Service.

Only the configuration in cfg_file or cfg_strings will be loaded.

[default] DDS_BOOLEAN_FALSE

◆ identify_execution

DDS_Boolean RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::identify_execution

Set this to true to append the host name and process ID to the RTI Routing Service execution name.

Used to get unique names for remote administration and monitoring.

[default] DDS_BOOLEAN_FALSE

◆ registered_transports

struct RTI_RoutingServiceTransportConfig RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::registered_transports[8]

Transports to be loaded by RTI Connext.

See also
registered_transports_count
Precondition
Maximum 8 transports

◆ registered_transports_count

int RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::registered_transports_count

Number of transports configured in registered_transports.

Precondition
Minimum 0 (no custom transport to load), maximum 8.

[default] 0

◆ license_file_name

char* RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::license_file_name

Path to an RTI Routing Service license file.

If not NULL, this file is checked for a valid license; otherwise, default location will be used. This parameter is only used if your installation requires a license file.

[default] NULL.

◆ user_environment

struct RTI_RoutingServiceProperties RTI_RoutingServiceProperty::user_environment

Dictionary of user variables. The dictionary provides a parallel way to expand XML configuration variables in the form , when they are not defined in the environment.

[default] empty
