I am using OpenSplice to publish data and to subscribe to data.
On the subscribe side I want to be able to query the ip-address of the publisher.
The primary reason for wanting to do this is that I need to copy very large files from the publisher and I don't need to share the files via DDS and I may need to terminate/'rate limit' the copy if bandwidth becomes constrained/limited.
The copying is one off so I can use rsync and ssh, but to achieve this I need the ip-address of the publisher. I could iterate over the network interfaces on the publisher side, however there is likly to be more that one valid network interface.
I've spent quite sometime trying to find a way to query the necessary information from the dds::sub::DataReader (or associated classes) but my search skills have failed me and was wondering if it was at all possible before I fallback to something less elegant.
There is a related RTI question/answer: Get IP Address of DataWriter/Publisher on RTI DDS?
