Segmentation fault whilst trying to publish PointCloud

edit

Hi all,

I'm trying to publish a PointCloud so that I can visualise it in RViz, however even though my node will compile I get a segmentation fault when I run it.

#include <ros/ros.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sensor_msgs/PointCloud.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv){
        // Initialise ROS and set up a node
        ros::init(argc, argv, "send_numbers");
        ros::NodeHandle nh;

    //Creates the publisher, and tells it to publish to a topic
ros::Publisher pub = nh.advertise<sensor_msgs::PointCloud>("number", 5);
//initialise random function
srand (time(0));

//Sets the loop to publish at a rate of 1Hz
ros::Rate rate(1);

while(ros::ok()) {
 sensor_msgs::PointCloud msg;
     msg.header.stamp = ros::Time::now();
 msg.header.frame_id = "/map";
 for(unsigned int i  =  0; i < 100; ++i){
 msg.points[i].x = rand() % 10;
     msg.points[i].y = rand() % 10;
 msg.points[i].z = rand() % 2;
     }
 pub.publish(msg);
     rate.sleep();
}
}

This is my gdb output

Sorry for the funny format. I'm not sure what happened there. I'm new to ROS so if any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
