2.1. Installing the RTI Connext DDS Micro Package

RTI Connext DDS Micro is provided in one of 4 RTI target packages:

  • rti_connext_dds_micro-3.0.0-Unix.rtipkg
  • rti_connext_dds_micro-3.0.0-Windows.rtipkg
  • rti_connext_dds_micro_security_sdk-3.0.0-Unix.rtipkg
  • rti_connext_dds_micro_security_sdk-3.0.0-Windows.rtipkg

Note: You must first install RTI Connext DDS Professional and either rti_connext_dds_micro-3.0.0-Unix.rtipkg or rti_connext_dds_micro-3.0.0-Windows.rtipkg before the corresponding security SDK packages can be installed.

Once installed, you will see a directory rti_connext_dds_micro-3.0.0 in the RTI Connext DDS Professional installation directory. This installation directory contains this documentation, the rtiddsgen code generation tool, and example source code. Note that a JRE is needed to execute rtiddsgen.

It is strongly recommended that you copy the RTI Connext DDS Micro installation directory outside of the RTI Connext DDS Professional installation. This is because it may not be desirable to build the RTI Connext DDS Micro libraries in the RTI Connext DDS Professional installation directory. To copy RTI Connext DDS Micro to another location, open RTI Launcher, navigate to the Utilities tab, click on Copy Micro SDK and follow the instructions. See the image below for a visual aid.
