function is_topic_networked

virtual bool ILLIXR::network::network_backend::is_topic_networked (
    std::string topic_name
) = 0

Used to query if a topic is networked.

The backend should coordinate with the other endpoints to determine if a topic is networked. There are two cases where this should return true: * topic_create has been called with the same topic_name * topic_create has not been called with the same topic_name, but the topic is networked by another endpoint The backend implementation should coordinate with the other endpoints to determine if a topic is networked.

Parameters:

  • topic_name The name of the topic.

function topic_create

virtual void ILLIXR::network::network_backend::topic_create (
    std::string topic_name,
    topic_config & config
) = 0

Called when a topic is created.

The backend must maintain a list of networked topics. This adds a topic to that list.

Parameters:

  • topic_name The name of the topic.
  • config The configuration of the topic.

function topic_send

virtual void ILLIXR::network::network_backend::topic_send (
    std::string topic_name,
    std::string && message
) = 0

Parameters:

  • topic_name The name of the topic.
