Detailed Description

DDSEntity, DDSListener and related items.

DDSEntity subtypes are created and destroyed by factory objects. With the exception of DDSDomainParticipant, whose factory is DDSDomainParticipantFactory, all DDSEntity factory objects are themselves DDSEntity subtypes as well.

Important: all DDSEntity delete operations are inherently thread-unsafe. The user must take extreme care that a given DDSEntity is not destroyed in one thread while being used concurrently (including being deleted concurrently) in another thread. An operation's effect in the presence of the concurrent deletion of the operation's target DDSEntity is undefined.
