Is the rosseral_xbee package compatible to ROS Kinetic?
I am using ROS kinetic, and I am running Ubuntu 16.04 LTS.
I want to sent digital data (pairs of numbers in fixed frequency), from my PC (with ROS) to an XBee. I tried to download and setup the rosserial_xbee package from http://wiki.ros.org/rosserial_xbee . The source link https://github.com/ros-drivers/rosserial was for jade-devel distro by default and there was not the kinetic option in the drop-down menu. I downloaded the jade-devel version. Is this package compatible for ROS kinetic? If it's not, how can I find a compatible package? I didn't find any errors during the downloading process. How can I be sure that the package was correctly downloaded and installed?
Assuming that by downloading you mean cloning the repo, I can't imagine you having errors just by downloading. The errors would probably happen when you compile and/or run the package. Have you tried compiling the package or running the nodes?
I have tried to compile the package with catkin_make command without any errors, though I haven't try to check if it works with xbee hardware yet.
