Designed to work with RTI Data Distribution Service, RTI Developer Platform is a set of tools that provide powerful insight and comprehensive analysis of your distributed data network. They will simplify your distributed system development and make it much easier to integrate and debug your distributed real-time system. The integrated debug and monitoring tools, designed exclusively for RTI Data Distribution Service, provide the insight and analysis to speed development and deployment. RTI Data Distribution Service tools provide informative views into your distributed system.
The RTI Developer Platform includes RTI Analyzer, RTI Scope and RTI Protocol Analyzer.
RTI Analyzer finds the RTI Data Distribution Service objects (like publications, subscriptions, and topics) on each node. You can control how the objects are displayed to accommodate different debug scenarios. For example, you may want the objects grouped by application if you are debugging the application itself. Or you may want to organize the objects by their roles (publications and subscriptions) to debug communication channels between objects. These views can be saved for future use. RTI Analyzer exposes the properties that control each object's behavior.
Another powerful feature is that RTI Analyzer can show you which objects are talking, or more importantly, not talking, to each other. RTI Analyzer will let you quickly determine whether objects are properly connected and if not, what the problem might be.
High-performance, distributed solutions require a view into the middleware to find problems and get the best performance out of the communications channel. Scope gives you a view into the RTI Data Distribution Service middleware without stopping or slowing operation. This makes it easy to find problems and see how changes can improve system performance.
Scope also gives you access to all DDS topics and user data within an RTI network. For example, you can watch a set of variables, see peak values, and quickly find any anomalies.
Scope’s data collection is minimally intrusive. You have full control over when samples are taken, what data is sampled, how much data is stored, and what data to display.
This tool only available on Windows platforms.
Often, you just need to see what’s happening on the wire. The RTI Protocol Analyzer uses the popular Ethereal® network protocol analyzer to look at all the packets in an RTI network and capture the ones you want. For example, you can see all the RTI Data Distribution Service traffic for a given time period, or watch the interaction RTI Data Distribution Service and web services traffic. The graphical display shows packet as they arrive, dissects packet contents, and graphs the output for easy analysis.
