RE: [certi-dev] CERTI RTI compatibility

[Gotthard, Petr]

Dear Giovanni,

This is my personal opinion.

YES for the C++ API level, with the exception of some RTI functions that
are not implemented in CERTI. This means the same C++ federate
implementation can be compiled with both MAK and CERTI RTI. But you
cannot rebuild the MAK products.

NO for the binary level. It is currently not possible to exchange the
RTI binaries and run MAK products with CERTI RTI. The binary MAK
products like Stealth must use the MAK RTI.
It may possible to implement a new plug-in for MAK's VR-Exchange and do
MAK RTI to CERTI RTI bridging. Would this be a solution for you?

The MAK's libRTI-NG exports many MAK proprietary (or at least not SISO
standardized) functions. This means it may be possible to replace CERTI
RTI --> MAK RTI in other software, but you probably never get full MAK
functionality (and MAK support for the products you purchased) if you
replace MAK RTI --> CERTI RTI in MAK products.

Subject: [certi-dev] CERTI RTI compatibility

Hello,
my name is Giovanni Geremia and I have the following problem:
I'm managing a distributed simulation that currently is using DIS to
exchange data between the different machines.
The data are graphically displayed using MAK's Plain View Display (2D)
and Stealth(3D).

We're now moving to HLA, and our plan is to use CERTI's RTI.
So my question is: is CERTI's RTI compatible with MAK's PVD and Stealth?
Is it possible to have a federation using CERTI's RTI exchanging data
with MAK's RTI?

Thank you in advance for your help
 Giovanni Geremia
