That is, the size of an RMW GID should be defined by the RMW layer and the RMW implementations should conform to it. With that said, 16 bytes is plenty (and happens to match the size of a GUID in DDS, which is also 16 bytes). So reduce this to 16 bytes. Signed-off-by: Chris Lalancette <clalancette@openrobotics.org>

This is approved, and CI is clean. I'm going to go ahead and merge this (and the corresponding rmw_dds_common PR). Thanks for the review. |

Note that this is a rehash of #328, but I think we have sufficient evidence now that this always should have been 16 bytes. This will also require a PR in rmw_dds_common, which is coming up next.
