Revision history [back]

Use rostopic or rqt_graph to introspect and make sure that your subscriber is actually subscribed to the right topic, and have a look at the publisher and subscriber logs to make sure that there isn't a topic type mismatch.

Also note that the subscriber only exists for as long as the subscriber object exists; if the subscriber object goes out of scope and is destructed, it unsubscribes from that topic.
