DDS — DDS ISSUE# 55] Rename DataType interface to TypeSupport

Open Closed All
  • Key: DDS-150
  • Legacy Issue Number: 6861
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: Real-Time Innovations ( Dr. Gerardo Pardo-Castellote, Ph.D.)
  • Summary:

    Ref-159 Rename_the_interface_DataType

    The name DataType used in the PSM and IDL to refer to the interface
    with the "register_type"operation from which the FooDataType derives
    for each user-data type 'Foo' is causing confusion.

    People think that the FooDataType actually represents the type of the
    objects being propagated. In reality the type is 'Foo' and FooDataType
    just provides the support to intgrate 'Foo' with the middleware

    **PROPOSAL**

    Rename DataType to TypeSupport. FooDataType to FooTypeSupport
