Function Documentation

void dds_set_topic_filter(dds_entity_t topic, dds_topic_filter_fn filter)

Sets a filter on a topic. To be replaced by proper filtering on readers, no guarantee that this will be maintained for backwards compatibility.

Not thread-safe with respect to data being read/written using readers/writers using this topic. Be sure to create a topic entity specific to the reader you want to filter, then set the filter function, and only then create the reader. And don’t change it unless you know there are no concurrent writes.

Parameters

  • topic – [in] The topic on which the content filter is set.

  • filter – [in] The filter function used to filter topic samples.
