Please use the following process to download and install RTI Connext DDS.

Click here to access RTI Connext 6.0.0 files.

The installation files for the RTI Connext DDS Secure 6.0.0 evaluation are provided in a single compressed file (.tar.gz for Linux and macOS systems, .zip for Windows systems). Copy the archive file to a temporary directory and extract it to that location.

The archive decompresses into the following files:

    • rti_connext_dds-6.0.0-eval-<platform>.[exe/run/dmg]*
    • rti_security_plugins-6.0.0-eval-<platform>.rtipkg
    • openssl-1.0.2o-6.0.0-host-<platform>.rtipkg
    • openssl-1.0.2o-target-<platform>.[tar.gz/zip]*

* file extension depends on the platform type

  1. Install the Connext host development tools and platform target libraries by executing the host installer application.

    On Windows systems:
    rti_connext_dds-6.0.0-eval-<Windows_platform>.exe

    On Linux systems:
    rti_connext_dds-6.0.0-eval-<Linux_platform>.run

    On macOS systems:
    rti_connext_dds-6.0.0-eval-<macOS_platform>.dmg

  2. After the installation is complete, start the RTI Launcher application, browse to the Configuration tab, and set the location of the trial license file that RTI emailed to you. 

    07-connext6-eval_launcher

    Upon completing this step, you are ready to evaluate Connext DDS Professional.  See below for Getting Started resources and tutorial.

    To install the RTI Security Plugins, continue with step 3.

     

  3. Install the RTI Security Plugins package and OpenSSL host package using the “RTI Package Installer” utility (also located on the Configuration tab in RTI Launcher).

    RTI Security Plugins:
    rti_security_plugins-6.0.0-eval-<platform>.rtipkg

    OpenSSL host package: 
    openssl-1.0.2o-6.0.0-host-<platform>.rtipkg

    08-connext6-eval_packages

    After installation, you can find the header files and security libraries under the include/ndds/security and lib/<target_architecture> directories.

  4. Extract the OpenSSL target package to your host machine. The location is up to you, but common options include:

    • /local/rti

    • <Connext_Install_Dir>/

    • C:\rti
