Detailed Description

Provides a hint as to the maximum acceptable delay from the time the data is written to the time it is received by the subscribing applications.

This policy is a hint to a DDS implementation; it can be used to change how it processes and sends data that has low latency requirements. The DDS specification does not mandate whether or how this policy is used.

Entity:

DDSTopic, DDSDataReader, DDSDataWriter

Status:

DDS_OFFERED_INCOMPATIBLE_QOS_STATUS, DDS_REQUESTED_INCOMPATIBLE_QOS_STATUS

Properties:

RxO = YES
Changeable = YES

DDS_PublishModeQosPolicy

DDSFlowController

Usage

This policy provides a means for the application to indicate to the middleware the urgency of the data communication. By having a non-zero duration, RTI Connext DDS Micro can optimize its internal operation.

RTI Connext DDS Micro uses it in conjunction with DDS_ASYNCHRONOUS_PUBLISH_MODE_QOS DDSDataWriter instances associated with a DDS_EDF_FLOW_CONTROLLER_SCHED_POLICY DDSFlowController only. Together with the time of write, DDS_LatencyBudgetQosPolicy::duration determines the deadline of each individual sample. RTI Connext DDS Micro uses this information to prioritize the sending of asynchronously published data;

Compatibility

The value offered is considered compatible with the value requested if and only if the inequality offered duration <= requested duration evaluates to 'TRUE'.
