EXAMPLES

Ownership

1) Description

The ownership example is used to illustrate the concept of Shared Ownership, controlled through QoS, in DDS.

2) Design

It consists of 2 units :

3) Scenario

Two StockQuote Publishers of different ownership strengths publish topics with the same keyfields. The subscriber will receive the topics from the publisher with higher strength. In this example :

Running of examples

Running the examples in a Posix environment

Environment Setup

Let's call OpenSplice_install_dir the OpenSplice installation directory.

The OpenSplice environment variables must be set in order for the examples to build/run correctly. To do this, open a terminal and source the "OpenSplice_install_dir/release.com" script supplied with the distribution.

C Executables

Building the examples is described on the Summary page

Two executables are generated in the bin directory when the example is built:

For C

Java5 executables

Building the examples is described on the Summary page

Two jars are generated in the java5 directory when the example is built:

For Java5

ISO C++ 2 Executables

Building the examples is described on the Summary page

Two executables are generated in the isocpp2 directory when the example is built:

Running the example

Ensure that the environment for OpenSplice is set up correctly as described above for each new terminal used.

It is recommended that you run the subscriber and publisher in separate terminals to avoid mixing the output

Running in single process (heap memory) configuration : the application starts OpenSplice middleware

Running in multiple process shared memory configuration

To enable deployment in this mode, an OpenSplice configuration file must be selected that has shared memory support e.g. one of the ospl_shmem xml configuration files found in the OpenSplice_install_dir/etc/config directory.

Starting the subscriber and publisher

  • In another terminal start the publisher by running either
  • Publisher usage, e.g.:
          c_Ownership_pub [publisher_name] [ownership_strength] [nb_iterations] [stop_subscriber_flag]
            publisher_name
            ownership_strength
            nb_iterations : number of sending message iterations
            stop_subscriber_flag : indicates if the publisher has to send a message to tell the subscriber to stop
        

    Running C/C#/ISO C++ 2/Java5 examples on Windows

    Environment Setup

    Let's call OpenSplice_install_dir the OpenSplice installation directory.

    The OpenSplice environment variables must be set in order for the examples to run correctly. To do this open an OpenSplice Command Prompt which will set up the environment variables for OpenSplice automatically. The OpenSplice Command Prompt can be selected from the launcher. Alternatively, open a windows Command Prompt and execute the "OpenSplice_install_dir\release.bat" batch script supplied with the distribution.

    Running the C/C#/ISO C++ 2/Java5 Examples

    Ensure that the environment for OpenSplice is set up correctly as described above for each new command prompt used.

    The following steps describe how to run the examples:

    Running in single process (heap memory) configuration : the application starts OpenSplice middleware

    Running in multiple process shared memory configuration

    To enable deployment in this mode, an OpenSplice configuration file must be selected that has shared memory support e.g. one of the ospl_shmem xml configuration files found in the OpenSplice_install_dir\etc\config directory.
