Fixes¶

• Fixed deadlock in RtpsUdpDataLink::remove_sample locking
• Track latency only when needed for LatencyBudget QoS or statistics

Additions¶

• Support for Visual Studio 2017
• Content-filter expressions can now use 64-bit integer literals
• tcp transport has a new wait_for_acknowledgements implementation

• Bug fixes in the OpenDDS Wireshark dissector (for sample dissection)

Notes¶

• The QoS XML Handler library is now decoupled from DDS4CCM, it requires xerces
