DDS15 — Wrong name for DataRepresentationQosPolicy field

  • Key: DDS15-251
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Real-Time Innovations ( Dr. Gerardo Pardo-Castellote, Ph.D.)
  • Summary:

    Section 7.6.3.1.3 'DataRepresentationQosPolicy: Platform-Specific API' states:

    The topic, publication, and subscription built-in topic data types shall each indicate the data representation of the associated entity with a new member:

    @id(0x0073) DDS::DataRepresentationQosPolicy representation;

    This does not follow the naming conventions for field names. Instead it should have said that the new member should be:
    @id(0x0073) DDS::DataRepresentationQosPolicy data_representation;

    Likewise in Annex D the declarations of structures TopicBuiltinTopicData, TopicQos, PublicationBuiltinTopicData, DataWriterQos, SubscriptionBuiltinTopicData, and DataReaderQos all have the member:

    @id(0x0073) DDS::DataRepresentationQosPolicy representation;
    

    This should be changed so the member is:

    @id(0x0073) DDS::DataRepresentationQosPolicy data_representation;
