STANAG 4817 / AEP-105 · 0.3.0-rc4 (SD-3 RC4)

Artifacts & Downloads

Every file shipped in the STANAG 4817 / AEP-105 0.3.0-rc4 (SD-3 RC4) release, and what each one is for.

These are the files that make up the 0.3.0-rc4 (SD-3 RC4) release. They live in the release directory alongside this site (STANAG/Draft-3-RC4/) on R2D2, mirrored from the upstream 4817 spec source (see the Overview for how TIDE and R2D2 divide responsibility).

The .zip archives are kept unmodified so they match the upstream spec source. Don't edit a release artifact in place — unzip it into a scratch location to work with it (see Getting Started).

How the artifacts map to volumes

Artifact kindVolumeUse
*_schema_xsdIIXML Schema — validate / define XML HIBW messages.
*_idlII / IIIOMG IDL — generate types for DDS / language bindings.
*_schema_jsonIIIJSON Schema — validate / define JSON HIBW messages.

Earlier releases

For traceability, the two prior drafts are mirrored next to this one:

  • Draft-1-SD1/ — SD-1 (0.1.0), the earliest mirrored draft.
  • Draft-2-SD2/ — SD-2 (0.2.0), superseded.

Use 0.3.0-rc4 for all new work; the earlier drafts are migration reference only.
