Release support

Please, refer to the master branch for the latest version of this document.

eProsima Fast DDS maintains several releases with different support cycles. Major releases are scarce and they are made when public API is broken (more information about eProsima Fast DDS versioning can be found here). Latest major release is v3.0.0 (August 2024), which introduced the DDS-XTypes 1.3. Refer to the migration guide if looking for hints moving from Fast DDS 2.x to v3.0.0.

Each quarter, a new Fast DDS minor version with new features is released. By default, eProsima Fast DDS minor releases have a lifecycle of 6 months. However, the life of certain branches can be extended depending on costumer and user needs. Within the support period of any minor version, there may be several patch releases that either add new functionalities in an ABI compatible way or fix possible issues. Before the minor release end of life (EOL) date, a final patch release including the latest fixes will be made available if there are any changes not included in any previous patch release of the same minor version. Long Term Supported (LTS) versions may have an extended supported period for only critical issues and security fixes, where no other ABI compatible neither bug fixes will be backported. This period applies since the end of standard support date to the end of life (EOL) date.
