The main difference between the two is that ``rmw_fastrtps_dynamic_cpp`` uses introspection type support at run time to
decide on the serialization/deserialization mechanism, while ``rmw_fastrtps_cpp`` uses its own type support, which
generates the mapping for each message type at build time.
The default ROS 2 RMW implementation until *Foxy* is ``rmw_fastrtps_cpp``.
For *Galactic* the environment variable ``RMW_IMPLEMENTATION`` has to be set to select ``rmw_fastrtps_cpp`` in order to
use *Fast DDS* as the middleware layer.
