Writing a simple CMakeLists.txt file for ROS
I am new to ROS (Indigo), and I want to write a C++ program to use the MoveIt! package.
However, I am confused as to what I need to have in my CMakeLists.txt file, such that the header and library files can be found.
For example, here is the file so far:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.1)
project(MicoMoveIt)
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "-std=c++11")
file(GLOB srcs *.cpp)
include_directories(/opt/ros/indigo/include)
link_directories(/opt/ros/indigo/lib)
add_executable(${PROJECT_NAME} ${srcs})
And my main.cpp file is:
#include <ros/ros.h>
#include <moveit/move_group_interface/move_group.h>
int main()
{
moveit::planning_interface::MoveGroup group("right_arm");
return 0;
}
But compiling this gives me the error:
/opt/ros/indigo/include/moveit/robot_model/joint_model.h:47: error: Eigen/Geometry: No such file or directory
#include <Eigen/Geometry>
^
So, I need to specify where to find these Eigen header files. But given that Eigen is a dependency of MoveIt!, then I shouldn't have to manually include all these header file directories.
How should I be writing the CMakeLists.txt file so that all header and library directories of dependencies are included?
Did you review the extensive documentation on
CMakeLists.txt
and catkin and the catkin docs?
