17.3 Implementation Versioning

Go To Phase 0 Implementation Governance

Phase 0 implementation versioning identifies the versions of implementation artifacts, generated artifacts, configuration artifacts, mappings, scripts, and handbook rules that belong to the Phase 0 implementation baseline.

Implementation versioning applies to:

1. Source files
2. IDL files
3. Generated types
4. DDS Topic mappings
5. QoS profiles
6. Configuration files
7. Scripts
8. Repository structure
9. Traceability records
10. Developer Handbook versions
11. Implementation profile revisions

Versioning must allow reviewers to determine which implementation artifact version realized which Part 3 FX logical element at a given point in the Phase 0 baseline.

Implementation versioning also supports compatibility review. A publisher, subscriber, IDL structure, generated type, DDS Topic, QoS profile, and consuming implementation module must align on compatible versions before the interaction can become part of the implementation baseline.
