Hello all,

My arduino send geometry twist message about robot path on /robotpath topic, when i type rostopic echo /robotpath i see the values (x,y,theta) change, but my subscribe node on ros read just the first value when it runs and hold it. I need to build a path controller for my project.

Thanks a lot.

my code is:

#include <ros/ros.h>
#include <geometry_msgs/Twist.h>

class robocont
{
public:
  robocont();

private:
  void roboCallback(const geometry_msgs::Twist::ConstPtr& robotpath);
  ros::NodeHandle nh_controller;
  ros::Subscriber robo_sub; 
};

 robocont::robocont()
{ 
  robo_sub = nh_controller.subscribe<geometry_msgs::Twist>("/robotpath", 1000, &robocont::roboCallback, this);
}

void robocont::roboCallback(const geometry_msgs::Twist::ConstPtr& robotpath)
{
  while(nh_controller.ok()){  
  ROS_INFO("Robot Postion:(%.2f, %.2f. %.2f)" ,robotpath->linear.x, robotpath->linear.y, robotpath->angular.z);
}
}

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
  ros::init(argc, argv, "odometry_Control");
  robocont odometry_Control;
  ros::spin();
}

Did you write ros::spin() in your code? See this for more information. Most probably, that is the problem. Otherwise, can you post your ros subscriber code?

Update:

This is the correct code:

#include <ros/ros.h>
#include <geometry_msgs/Twist.h>

class robocont
{
public:
  robocont();

private:
  void roboCallback(const geometry_msgs::Twist::ConstPtr& robotpath);
  ros::NodeHandle nh_controller;
  ros::Subscriber robo_sub; 
};

 robocont::robocont()
{ 
  robo_sub = nh_controller.subscribe<geometry_msgs::Twist>("/robotpath", 1000, &robocont::roboCallback, this);
}

void robocont::roboCallback(const geometry_msgs::Twist::ConstPtr& robotpath)
{
  ROS_INFO("Robot Postion:(%.2f, %.2f. %.2f)" ,robotpath->linear.x, robotpath->linear.y, robotpath->angular.z);
}

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
  ros::init(argc, argv, "odometry_Control");
  robocont odometry_Control;
  ros::spin();
}

In your callback function, you had while(nh_controller.ok()){ } because of which it was stuck in the loop and kept on printing the same value.

Then, can you accept the answer so that it will be helpful for others also

I need to ask if the Callback function can read two topic at the same time (refernce path and real path)
