title	Change DDS Domain

If you want to change the DDS Domain later, change the corresponding variable DDS_DOMAIN in /etc/profile.d/rti_connext_dds.sh.

The following domain IDs are used in the CPM Lab:

Domain ID	Purpose
21	Lab (main computer, NUCs, vehicles)
61-66	Student computers

Info

title	Change RTI license file

If you want to update your license file, change the file at: /opt/rti_connext_dds-6.0.0/rti_license.dat

Reboot your PC to avoid running source /etc/profile.d/rti_connext_dds.sh in every terminal you open.
Optional:
Setup MATLAB. As a student from RWTH, you can do this with a MathWorks account following these instructions.
Setup the RTI DDS Support from Matlab.
Note
Make sure to create a symbolic link to the MATLAB binary during or after the setup!

title	Troubleshooting

If you have problems during the building process, try starting over again with
Code Block
language bash
cd ~/dev/software/
git pull
sudo git clean -xdf
./build_all.bash
If you ever run build_all.bash as root , you might run into a lot of permission denied errors. You need to delete all files and folders that were created and rerun as your usual user.
If you recieve an error like "dds/someheader.h" not found, run the command "rtiddsgen", which should build the neccesarry cpp-files
If you recieve an error regarding timing issues of unittests, run
Code Block
language bash
sudo git clean -xdf
./build_all.bash
script
again. This error occurs often in VM.
