DDSJAVA — RxO QoS Policies should be Comparable (idem for QoS)

  • Key: DDSJAVA-23
  • Legacy Issue Number: 16532
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: ZettaScale Technology ( Angelo Corsaro, PhD.)
  • Summary:

    Some of the DDS QoS Policies are Request vs. Offered in the sense that
    the value of matching policies on communicating entities have to satisfy a
    specific ordering relationship. Specifically, the policy set on the receiving side
    should always be less or equal than the analogous QoS Policy on the
    sending side. As a result there is a natural total ordering for RxO Policies
    which is not currently captured nor reflected in the API.

    As a consequence also QoS should be defining a total order.

    [Resolution]
    Ensure that all RxO Policies implement the Comparable interface. This is
    pretty logical as for this QoS Policies it has to be established
    a total order.

    Let QoS classes also implement a comparable interface.

  • Disposition: Resolved — DDS-Java 1.0b2
  • Disposition Summary:

    Define an interface RequestedOffered; all QoS policy types that require requested/offered compatibility extend this interface. The interface has one method, requestedOfferedContract, which returns a Comparable object. That objects compares the policy against another instance of the policy based on the requested/offered compatibility rule(s) for that policy type.
