How to use the latest version of Fastdds on ros2?

I am using ros2_eloquent, its default middleware is FastDDS, and the version is FastRTPSv1.9.3.
The latest version of FastDDS has been updated to version 2.2.0. I was wondering if I could use version 2.2.0 for Eloquent ?
How to do this? Do I need to modify RMW_FASTRTPS_CPP, add FastDDSv2.2.0 src, and compile ros2 again?

Yes, that would be the way forward. However I'm pretty confident that you will have several build and/or runtime issues to fix due to the changes in APIs between the versions.

I suggest you to move to ROS 2 Foxy or even to the Rolling Release (kind of master) if you want to use the latest FastDDS

You need to install the latest fastdds and recompile the whole ros2 source code into binary, then you can use the custom version of ros2.

And I agree with what @alsora said, using rolling release is a quick way.
