Issues Descriptions

Simulation specification issue

  • Key: DSS2-113
  • Legacy Issue Number: 3741
  • Status: open  
  • Source: Anonymous
  • Summary:

    The High Level Archicture Programmers Guide states
    (8.3) Encoding and Object Updates:
    "When producing an AHVPS [AttributeHandleValuePairSet, Ralf.],
    the federate is responsible for any data marshalling (encoding)."

    This principles has been transferred to the DSS proposal,
    but encoding is what ORBs are good for;
    a participant in distributed simulation should not explicitly handle it.

    Attribute type names will be listed in the FOM/SOM description
    and are mapped to RTI internal handles,
    but that does not help with generating or interpreting value encodings.

    As we already have a runtime type information packager (CORBA Any),
    we should use it and replace all occurences of "AttributeHandleValuePairSet"
    at least with "any", so a common coding scheme will be used.
    The same holds for HLA interaction parameters.
