Auto code generator is the utility software for developers. It generates source code needed to interface with DDS middleware. Developers defines applications interface with middleware including

• Topics its publishing
• Topics its subscribing
• Quality of service setting for each subscription or publication
• Notification mechanisms (listener settings)

System wide types, topics, application interfaces are generated as a project and updates are performed through code generator.

Generating middleware specific code using a tool has following benefits:

• Application developers does not need to know programming details of DDS API .
• Tool usage speeds up software development as major code is generated by tool
• It eliminates errors generated while implementing middleware interface.
• It ensures type consistency and interface control through the project.
• Easy management of system internal interfaces from configuration control point of view.
