2.1. Installing the RTI Connext Micro Package

RTI Connext Micro is provided in two zip archives:

  • rti_connext_dds_micro-<version>-Unix.zip

  • rti_connext_dds_micro-<version>-Windows.zip

where <version> matches the product version, such as 2.4.14.1.

The only difference between the two archives is the line endings in the source code. The archive ending in Unix uses LF line endings, and the archive ending in Windows CRLF line endings.

RTI Connext Micro requires a Java Run-Time Environment (JRE) to run rtiddsgen and version 1.8.121 or better is required. Note that JRE 1.9 and higher is not supported. If a compatible JRE run-time environment is not already installed a compatible JRE can be installed from one of the following bundles:

  • rti_connext_dds_micro-<version>-jre-darwin.zip – JRE for Darwin 32 and 64 Bit

  • rti_connext_dds_micro-<version>-jre-i86Linux.zip – JRE for 32 bit Linux

  • rti_connext_dds_micro-<version>-jre-i86Win32.zip – JRE for 32 bit Windows

  • rti_connext_dds_micro-<version>-jre-x64Linux.zip – JRE for 64 bit Linux

  • rti_connext_dds_micro-<version>-jre-x64Win64.zip – JRE for 64 bit Windows

Once installed, you will see a directory |me_bundle_name|-<version>. in the installation directory. This installation directory contains this documentation, the rtiddsgen code generation tool, and source code.
