1 ORTE - OCERA Real-Time Ethernet
5 The ORTE is open source implementation of RTPS communication protocol
6 defined by Real Time Innovations (http://www.rti.com).
7 RTPS is new application layer protocol targeted to real-time communication
8 area, which is build on top of standard UDP stack.
10 Which targets are supported by ORTE?
11 -----------------------------------
12 UNIX - Linux, Solars, MacOS, FreeBSD
13 Windows - MinGW, CygWin, MSVC
14 RTLinux - with preliminary UDP stack
19 powerpc-apple-darwin6.8
23 simply untar instalation package into desired directory, enter this
24 directory and issue following commands.
26 UserSpace compilation:
31 after this procedure ortemanager and orteping are placed in /usr/local/bin
32 , library in /usr/local/lib and include headers /usr/local/include
35 ./configure --with-linux=/patched linux dir/ --with-rtlinux=/rtlinux dir/
40 ./configure --with-linux=/patched linux dir/ --with-rtai=/rtai dir/ --with-rtnet=/rtnet dir/
48 see :ortemanager -h for usage
49 note:ortemanager have to be running during all communication. For future work can
50 be added into /etc/init.d/... script for starting ortemanager during boot
51 of machine. This script (redhat and mandrake) is placed in
52 "orte/manager/rc/ortemanagerd"
53 For developping a RT application, ortemnager can be running in userspace.
54 Start it with parameter "-k 192.168.4.2". This address is IP address of
57 How to test communication?
58 -------------------------
59 in a shell try to type "orteping -p -s". So, now will be created one publisher
60 and one subscriber with same topic and type. If you see messages like
62 [root@localhost ORTEPing]# ./orteping -p -s
64 received fresh issue 1
66 received fresh issue 2
68 received fresh issue 3
70 communication works. If you see only sending messsages, it's sign that ortemanager
71 is not probably running.
72 See "orteping -h" for usaged.
74 Now, you can develop self applications (see documentation).
78 Feedback is welcome - send bug reports, enhancements, checks, money
79 orders, etc. to the address below.
