rcl_ret_t rcl_publisher_get_network_flow_endpoints(const rcl_publisher_t *publisher, rcutils_allocator_t *allocator, rcl_network_flow_endpoint_array_t *network_flow_endpoint_array)

Get network flow endpoints of a publisher.

Query the underlying middleware for a given publisher’s network flow endpoints

The publisher argument must point to a valid publisher.

The allocator argument must be a valid allocator.

The network_flow_endpoint_array argument must be allocated and zero-initialized. The function returns network flow endpoints in the network_flow_endpoint_array argument, using the allocator to allocate memory for the network_flow_endpoint_array argument’s internal data structures whenever required. The caller is reponsible for memory deallocation by passing the network_flow_endpoint_array argument to rcl_network_flow_endpoint_array_fini function.

Attribute	Adherence
Allocates Memory	Yes
Thread-Safe	No
Uses Atomics	No

[1] implementation may need to protect the data structure with a lock

Parameters:

• publisher – [in] the publisher instance to inspect

• allocator – [in] allocator to be used when allocating space for network_flow_endpoint_array_t

• network_flow_endpoint_array – [out] the network flow endpoints

Returns:

RCL_RET_OK if successful, or

Returns:

RCL_RET_INVALID_ARGUMENT if any argument is null, or

Returns:

RCL_RET_BAD_ALLOC if memory allocation fails, or
