Wire compatibility	eCAL UDP: 100% compatible eCAL TCP: New in 5.10. Prior versions of eCAL will not be able to receive data from TCP publishers. Services: 100% compatible eCAL Shared Memory: Downwards compatible eCAL 5.10 offers an option to use multi-buffering for increased performance. Prior Versions of eCAL cannot receive data from publishers using that feature. By default, the feature is turned off, which makes the Shared memory layer 100% compatible.
