DDSXTY14 — API for pre-cached type assignability

Open Closed All
  • Key: DDSXTY14-196
  • Status: open  
  • Source: MIT/Lincoln Laboratory ( Mr. Daniel Herring)
  • Summary:

    feature request: define APIs so multiple type definitions can be pre-processed, thus avoiding runtime type lookup between known IDL versions

    use case: a system grows over time with IDL versions 1, 2, ... N. All these versions are designed for interoperability or with known breakages. Avoiding unnecessary discovery traffic is important for system performance.

    An API to load XML type definitions would be useful in many situations. An IDL-compiler based API would be more efficient for embedded platforms.
