DDSJAVA — DynamicDataFactory.createData missing a parameter

Source:

RTI (Rick Warren, rick.warren@rti.com)

Summary:

According to DDS-XTypes, the operation DynamicDataFactory.create_data (createData in this PSM) takes a parameter that indicates the DynamicType of the new data object to create. That parameter is missing, leaving implementations with no way to determine—and applications with no way to specify—the type of the created object.

Proposed Resolution:

Add the missing argument.

Proposed Revised Text:

Apply the following difference to the method signature:

• public abstract DynamicData createData();

+ public abstract DynamicData createData(DynamicType type);

This issue is obsolete if the proposal for issue #16324 is accepted: that proposal calls for DynamicDataFactory to be eliminated entirely. Merge this issue with that one.
Disposition: Merged with issue #16324
