Hello!

I checked out today the gazebo package, from simulator_gazebo: https://code.ros.org/svn/ros-pkg/stac... and it does not compile! I get a lot of errors, concerning the urdf2gazebo. Here is the beginning of the error messages:

  /opt/ros/diamondback/stacks/simulator_gazebo/gazebo/src/urdf2gazebo.cpp:755: error: ‘class urdf::Link’ has no member named ‘addCollision’ 
/opt/ros/diamondback/stacks/simulator_gazebo/gazebo/src/urdf2gazebo.cpp: In member function ‘void 
urdf2gazebo::URDF2Gazebo::printCollisionGroups(boost::shared_ptr<urdf::Link>)’:
/opt/ros/diamondback/stacks/simulator_gazebo/gazebo/src/urdf2gazebo.cpp:801: error: ‘class urdf::Link’ has no member named ‘collision_groups’

...

I reinstalled my ROS-System today, from: sudo apt-get install ros-diamondback-desktop-full

Can anyone tell me what I am missing? thanks

If you don't mind, please put the error message in "code" formatting (the button is marked "101010"). It's much easier to read that way. (might want to drop the ! as well)

Actually the "edit" link below your posts allows you to edit it after the fact.

as mentioned, trunk or development branches are not meant to be stable, but if you really want to try and run from gazebo trunk, try compiling against unstable of robot_model and see if that fixes at least part of your problem as stated? hopefully a lot of the new features you might be looking for will be in the latest unstable release simulator_gazebo-1.3.0.

ah ok, thanks! i tried the new robot_model, and it fixed the errors above! But others occur, so i will stay with the older version of gazebo for now and just exchange my needed files per hand.

what are you looking for in the trunk and also, can you try and overlay/compile gazebo trunk against ros-unstable-simulator-gazebo instead of ros-diamondback-desktop-full?

The head of trunk is not necessarily compatible with anything other than the bleeding edge (other trunk heads).

If you want to use an svn copy of gazebo you should probably download the diamondback branch. That one will work with your diamondback install:

stacks/simulator_gazebo/tags/diamondback/
