org.omg.dds.topic
Interface Topic<TYPE>

Type Parameters:

TYPE - The concrete type of the data that will be published and/ or subscribed by the readers and writers that use this topic.

All Superinterfaces:

DDSObject, DomainEntity<Topic<TYPE>,DomainParticipant,TopicListener<TYPE>,TopicQos>, Entity<Topic<TYPE>,TopicListener<TYPE>,TopicQos>, TopicDescription<TYPE>

public interface Topic<TYPE>
extends TopicDescription<TYPE>, DomainEntity<Topic<TYPE>,DomainParticipant,TopicListener<TYPE>,TopicQos>

Topic is the most basic description of the data to be published and subscribed. A Topic is identified by its name, which must be unique in the whole Domain. Topic is the only TopicDescription that can be used for publications and therefore associated to a DataWriter. All operations except for the inherited operations Entity.setQos(org.omg.dds.core.EntityQos), Entity.getQos(), Entity.setListener(java.util.EventListener), Entity.getListener(), Entity.enable(), and Entity.getStatusCondition() may fail with the exception NotEnabledException.
