10.2 Information Structure Mapping Principles

Go To Mapping from FX Logical Information Structures to IDL and Generated Types

The Phase 0 Implementation Profile applies the following principles when mapping FX logical information structures to IDL structures and generated types.

Each IDL and generated type mapping identifies:

• FX logical information structure it realizes;
• Runtime Plane or Runtime Planes associated with the information structure;

  • DDS Topic or Topics that carry the generated type;
  • Producing FX logical Node or Node Role;
• Consuming FX logical Node or Node Role;
• IDL structure name;
• Generated type name;
• the source IDL file;
• Applicable generation rule;
• Applicable versioning and compatibility expectations; and
• Traceability relationship back to the Part 3 FX logical information structure.

The mapping does not require every future information structure to exist in Phase 0. Phase 0 maps only the selected information structures needed for the implementation baseline.
