dynamic reconfigure: How explicity fetch data from parameter server?
I have a dynamic reconfigure server. In my application, eventually an update of the parameter server is done. However these changes are not notified to the dynamic reconfigure server.
I would love to force programatically to the dynamic reconfigure server to fetch again the data from the paramter server. I haven't found any function that do that in the cpp API (I think that there exist something in the python api, but it is not my case). I've also tried to remove the parameter server and later build a new parameter server on the same address. It looks like the master meta-information gets messy and the new parameter server does not appear even if the old is not active anymnore.
Any idea?
I think you could have a look at the hokuyo node, it uses dynamic reconfigure and may do what you need. You could borrow their code.
It is not the case. Hokuyo node uses the dynamic reconfigure in the usual way. It just waits for parameters updates using the topics mechanism used in the dynamic reconfigure server.
