Hi,

i try to advertise my service, but i am not able to compile.

Here is my msg file:

string sourceRobot
float64 x
float64 y

My srv file:

map_merger/pointFromRobot inputPoint
---
map_merger/pointFromRobot outputPoint

And here are the cpp parts according to the Service:

in map_merger.h:

 map_merger::pointFromRobot transformPoint(map_merger::transformPoint::Request req);

in map_merger.cpp:

 map_merger::pointFromRobot transformPoint(map_merger::transformPoint::Request req)
 {
     map_merger::pointFromRobot returnValue;
    return returnValue;
}

in the Constructor the advertiseService is called (that does not work), here is the code:

 nodeHandle = new ros::NodeHandle("~");
    ros::ServiceServer service = nodeHandle->advertiseService("transformPoint",&MapMerger::transformPoint,this);

regard peter

If you have compile errors, you should always post them along with your question.

It appears you are not using the correct signature for the callback function, as described in Writing a Simple Service and Client (C++)), it should have two arguments (one for the request, one for the response).

i will post the error in future questions. I had to change the method to: bool transformPoint(map_merger::transformPoint::Request &req, map_merger::transformPoint::Response &res);
