VT MAK is pleased to announce the release of the MAK High Performance RTI 4.0.
   
This is a Major Feature Release which adds full support for the HLA Evolved Standard (IEEE 1516-2010) C++ API. HLA Evolved is the latest version of HLA and introduces support for such features as:

  • Modular FOMS
  • Update Rate Reduction
  • RTI Connectivity, reliability
  • Encoding/Decoding Helpers

This version of the RTI continues to support both HLA 1.3 and HLA 1516 (IEEE 1516-2000) just like previous releases. Additionally, the MAK RTI maintains wire compatibility so that Federates developed with HLA 1.3 or HLA 1516 will continue to work with new Federates developed for HLA Evolved.

While binary compatibility was preserved with old releases, so existing software will continue to run with the RTI out-of-the-box.
Minor changes were required to the include paths, which may require some projects to make minor changes to the way they are compiled, if (and only if) they are under active development. Please refer to the release notes for additional information.

This release does not currently support the HLA Evolved Java Bindings. We will add support for Java shortly in our next maintenance release. Customers with Java requirements should contact support@mak.com for
additional information.

In addition to HLA Evolved many defects were fixed. For a complete list of all changes and improvements please see the Release Notes:
