This specification defines a XRCE Protocol between a resource constrained, low-powered device (client) and an Agent (the server). The XRCE Protocol enables the device to communicate with a DDS network and publish and subscribe to topics in a DDS domain via an intermediate service (the XRCE Agent). The specification’s purpose and scope are to ensure that applications based on different vendors’ implementations of the XRCE Protocol and XRCE Agent are compatible and interoperable.
