Revision history [back]

I dont know whether it is important for you to run this particular command.

However using roscpp your CMakeLists.txt should contain:

find_package(catkin REQUIRED COMPONENTS 
roscpp
)

And your package.xml should contain:

<build_depend>roscpp</build_depend>
<run_depend>roscpp</run_depend>

After "making" your workspace, you should be able to use roscpp.
