RTI Connext Integration Toolkit for AUTOSAR

RTI Connext Integration for AUTOSAR Classic

Introduction

RTI Connext Integration Toolkit for AUTOSAR Classic complements Connext Micro and Connext Cert with AUTOSAR-specific code generation. The toolkit enables automatic conversion of data type definitions across standard formats (OMG IDL, OMG DDS-XML and AUTOSAR ARXML). Combined with the Micro Application Generator (MAG), the toolkit generates Software Component ARXML for the DdsCdd supporting C code for data conversion and marshaling between the Run-Time Environment (RTE) and DDS communication  frameworks.

  Figure 1: A Complex Device Driver Integrable in AUTOSAR Classic Platform-based ECUs

  • DDS-XML to ARXML conversion to AUTOSAR base, implementation, CompuMethod and union types
  • ARXML generation for DdsCdd Complex Device Driver
  • Code generation for run-time conversions between DDS and RTE C language type representations
  • Code generation for Complex Device Driver Runnables of marshaling routines between RTE provided and/or required PortPrototypes
  • Code generation of DDS configuration and RTE mapping module template

• Benefits

  The combination of RTI Connext Integration Toolkit for AUTOSAR Classic and MAG combines the AUTOSAR Classic Platform software architecture and methodology with DDS connectivity. It eliminates the need for custom coding through a seamless interface.

RTI Connext Integration for AUTOSAR Adaptive

Introduction

RTI Connext Integration Toolkit for AUTOSAR Adaptive complements Connext Professional, Connext Micro and Connext Cert. It provides a code generator for application-specific DDS Network Binding assets plus a source library implementing the AUTOSAR Communications Management DDS Network Binding.

In this release, the Vector MICROSAR Adaptive integration is experimental. As an experimental release, interfaces and behavior are subject to change. 

• Features

  • AUTOSAR Runtime Adaptive Code Generator
    • ARXML to DDS IDL conversion of AUTOSAR standard and custom types
    • ARXML to DDS XML conversion of AUTOSAR standard and custom types
    • DDS XML to ARXML conversion of AUTOSAR standard and custom types
    • Code generation for run-time conversions between C DDS and C++ Adaptive Platform type representations
    • Code generation for Common, Skeleton, Proxy and DDS-specific C++ assets
    • Code generation of DDS Network Binding deployment configuration files
      
      
  • AUTOSAR DDS Network Binding Library (requires Code Generator described above)
    • Service Instance Discovery
    • Event (incl. zero-copy), Method, Field and Trigger-based Communication
    • Service Availability
      
      
  • AUTOSAR DDS Network Binding for Vector MICROSAR Adaptive (requires Code Generator and Library described above)
    • Service Instance Discovery
    • Event-based (incl. zero-copy) Communication
    • Service Availability

• Benefits

  RTI Connext Integration Toolkit for AUTOSAR Adaptive extends the AUTOSAR Adaptive software architecture and methodology with standards-based DDS connectivity.

  This is made possible by allowing AUTOSAR ECU designers to define data types, service interfaces and their deployment using the AUTOSAR ECU design tools of their choice.
