In relation to this: OROMACS I have been working on a refactoring of TaskCore; details see my personal gitorious clone (vri-rtt).

My intentions:

1. to (if possible) make minimal changes from the perspective of the OROCOS application/component builder; the API of classes used by the end user should change as little as possible. Click below to read the rest of this post.

It seems that the UseOROCOS-RTT.cmake macro contains an error on line 217; this line should be

ADD_EXECUTABLE( ${EXE_TARGET_NAME} ${SOURCES} )

ADD_EXECUTABLE( ${EXE_TARGET_NAME} SHARED ${SOURCES} )

right?

The Orocos Toolchain ROS stack developers are pleased to announce a new
release of the orocos_toolchain_ros stack
http://www.ros.org/wiki/orocos_toolchain_ros.

Debian packages are already available for unstable, diamondback and cturtle
(only for lucid and maverick) will be available soon.

Most important changes:

* We moved the development to GIT: the stack is available on
http://git.mech.kuleuven.be/robotics/orocos_toolchain_ros.git (only http
protocol is supported). Click below to read the rest of this post.

Hi all,

I have an Orocos component (PEA_Orocos_Right) using the rtt_ros_integration for communication with ROS. When using ROS cturtle and RTT v2.1.0 it does compile. However when i switch to ROS diamondback with RTT v2.2.0 I get the error message as shown below. Variables and ports appear to be not declared all off a sudden while they are. Click below to read the rest of this post.

I try to install the toolchain on 64-bit Archlinux from the gzipped source. I have ruby installed, and also zlib 1.2.5. After entering "autoproj build" I enter ruby or none, as I prefer to install osdeps myself. In both cases, the system aborts; last report is as follows:

autoproj: installing autoproj and its dependencies (this can take a long time)
failed: there is an osdeps definition for zlib, but not for this operating system

How to deal with this? Help appreciated.

Thanks, Theo.

Hi,

I have a question regarding the use of the deployer and the soem_master.

When I launch my xml file using the deployer

sudo `rospack find ocl`/bin/deployer-gnulinux -s test_package.xml

Using wireshark I noticed that some data is inserted in the ethernet-packages, which I guess would be the cause of the problem:

EtherCAT frame header

Hello everyone. I'm using the latest version of the toolchain and would like access to a card D / A Comedi. Since it has no support in the toolchain Comedi, could create the drivers and put in the "Chapter 8. Hardware Device Interfaces" (http://www.orocos.org/stable/documentation/rtt/v2.x/doc-xml/orocos-components-manual.html#orocos-fdi).

From what I understand, I have to create a class that implements the interface, in my case, AnalogOutInterface, but I have some doubts programming. Has anyone created a class that implements some interface? Click below to read the rest of this post.

Hi RTT-devs.

I'am trying to make a patch for the bug '802 : Test if a peer has an operation/property'.

I submit you a first attempt. For ports, attributes and properties, it should be ok. But for operations it's not definitive.

I need your help because i don't understand the Service + Operation philosophy.

I add an hasOperation method to the TaskContext class. But i can't implement it with (Service::getOperation != 0) because the behavior should be different (mustn't display the message). Click below to read the rest of this post.

Dear all,

I am running deployer-xenomai (RTT and OCL 2.2) on powerpc. When I quit by:

 Deployer [S]> quit

 144.690 [ ERROR  ][Logger] Failed to stop thread TaskBrowser: breakLoop() returned true, but loop() function did not return after 1 second.

Does anyone have any idea?

Thanks!

Hi all. I am a student of the Polytechnic University of Valencia and I am doing a project with Orocos. I've created some simple components to learn the basics of this library.

Well, I have Advantech PCI1720 card (card D / A). I've installed Comedi (is supported) and I created a C program to check its operation.

When I try to create a component that uses this card Comedi (following The Orocos Comedi interface), when I compile I get error " undefined_reference in function comedi_data_read" I think that I'm doing something wrong in the "include" sentencies. Click below to read the rest of this post.
