Hi I am trying to subscribe and publish at the same time. I tried to follow the suggestions given for similar questions but am not able to publish the data that I am getting using the callback function. My publisher is created in the constructor of a class and is stored in a member variable. I am calling the member.publish method in the callback function. Is this right ? Also, do I need to run the publish command in a dedicated loop again inside the callback function or the looping because of callback function is enough ?

Here is the error message that I get

[FATAL] [1320088082. 162199274] : ASSERTION FAILED file = /opt/ros/electric/stacks/ros_comm/clients/cpp/rospp/include/ros/publisher.h line = 101 cond = false message =

Can anybody help understand what is going wrong ?

I suggest you post the code where this is failing.

Thanks. I got what was going wrong. I was calling a function while the callback was looping. Because of that, the publish part (after the function call ) was never getting executed. But I still wonder, why would it show this message in that case.
