DSS2 — Simplify representation of Logical Time

  • Key: DSS2-110
  • Legacy Issue Number: 5301
  • Status: closed  
  • Source: DMSO ( Michael Shadid)
  • Summary:

    The use of valuetypes for time in the DistributedSimulation IDL require
    a user of this cap to provide matching implementations of LogicalTime
    and LogicalTimeInterval for both the client federate and RTI. This
    would require coordinated efforts to match implementations (perhaps in
    different implementation languages) for federates and the RTI. Since a
    user of the IDL interface will only be writing code on the client
    (federate) side, this approach adds unnecessary complexity. It is
    recommended that the abstract valuetype for logical time and logical
    time interval be replaced with a double in the section headed “Logical
    time, time stamps, and lookahead”, and that the IDL also be changed
    analogously, with the forward reference to LogicalTimeInterval being
    removed and the definitions of abstract valuetypes LogicalTimeFactory
    and LogicalTimeIntervalFactory being removed.
