Struct MessageInfo 

pub struct MessageInfo {
    pub source_timestamp: Option<SystemTime>,
    pub received_timestamp: Option<SystemTime>,
    pub publication_sequence_number: u64,
    pub reception_sequence_number: u64,
    pub publisher_gid: PublisherGid,
}

Additional information about a received message.

Fields

source_timestamp: Option<SystemTime>

Time when the message was published by the publisher.

The rmw layer does not specify the exact point at which the RMW implementation must take the timestamp, but it should be taken consistently at the same point in the process of publishing a message.

received_timestamp: Option<SystemTime>

Time when the message was received by the subscription.

The rmw layer does not specify the exact point at which the RMW implementation must take the timestamp, but it should be taken consistently at the same point in the process of receiving a message.

publication_sequence_number: u64

Sequence number of the received message set by the publisher.

This sequence number is set by the publisher and therefore uniquely identifies a message when combined with the publisher GID. For long running applications, the sequence number might wrap around at some point.

If the RMW implementation doesn’t support sequence numbers, its value will be u64::MAX.

Requirements:

If psn1 and psn2 are the publication sequence numbers received together with two messages, where psn1 was obtained before psn2 and both sequence numbers are from the same publisher (i.e. also same publisher gid), then:

• psn2 > psn1 (except in the case of a wrap around)
• psn2 - psn1 - 1 is the number of messages the publisher sent in the middle of both received messages. Those might have already been taken by other messages that were received in between or lost. psn2 - psn1 - 1 = 0 if and only if the messages were sent by the publisher consecutively.

reception_sequence_number: u64

Sequence number of the received message set by the subscription.

This sequence number is set by the subscription regardless of which publisher sent the message. For long running applications, the sequence number might wrap around at some point.

If the RMW implementation doesn’t support sequence numbers, its value will be u64::MAX.

Requirements:

If rsn1 and rsn2 are the reception sequence numbers received together with two messages, where rsn1 was obtained before rsn2, then:

• rsn2 > rsn1 (except in the case of a wrap around)
• rsn2 = rsn1 + 1 if and only if both messages were received consecutively.

publisher_gid: PublisherGid

An identifier for the publisher that sent the message.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for MessageInfo

fn clone(&self) -> MessageInfo

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for MessageInfo

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Hash for MessageInfo

fn hash<__H: Hasher>(&self, state: &mut __H)

Feeds this value into the given Hasher.

fn hash_slice<H>(data: &[Self], state: &mut H)

where H: Hasher, Self: Sized,

Feeds a slice of this type into the given Hasher.

impl Ord for MessageInfo

fn cmp(&self, other: &MessageInfo) -> Ordering

This method returns an Ordering between self and other.

fn max(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the maximum of two values.

fn min(self, other: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Compares and returns the minimum of two values.

fn clamp(self, min: Self, max: Self) -> Self

where Self: Sized,

Restrict a value to a certain interval.

impl PartialEq for MessageInfo

fn eq(&self, other: &MessageInfo) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.

impl PartialOrd for MessageInfo

fn partial_cmp(&self, other: &MessageInfo) -> Option<Ordering>

This method returns an ordering between self and other values if one exists.

fn lt(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests less than (for self and other) and is used by the < operator.

fn le(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests less than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the <= operator.

fn gt(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests greater than (for self and other) and is used by the > operator.

fn ge(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests greater than or equal to (for self and other) and is used by the >= operator.

impl Eq for MessageInfo
