DATA_REPRESENTATION

This policy has request-offer semantics. A DDSDataWriter may only offer a single representation. Attempting to put multiple representations in a DDSDataWriter will result in DDS_RETCODE_INCONSISTENT_POLICY. A DDSDataWriter will use its offered policy to communicate with its matched DDSDataReader entities. A DDSDataReader requests one or more representations. If a DDSDataWriter offers a representation that is contained within the sequence of the DDSDataReader, the offer satisfies the request and the policies are compatible. Otherwise, they are incompatible.
