I was following this link, tf2/tutorials/adding a frame(c++), but after i put the frame_broadcaster.cpp file and compile it using catkin_make im getting this error:

Building CXX object learning_tf2/CMakeFiles/frame_tf2_broadcaster.dir/src/frame_tf2_broadcaster.cpp.o

I'm using ROS indigo 64 bit cpu.

This is the CMakeLists.txt file:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.3)
project(learning_tf2)

find_package(catkin REQUIRED COMPONENTS
  roscpp
  rospy
  tf2
  tf2_ros
  turtlesim
)



catkin_package()

include_directories(
  ${catkin_INCLUDE_DIRS}
)


add_executable(turtle_tf2_broadcaster src/turtle_tf2_broadcaster.cpp)
target_link_libraries(turtle_tf2_broadcaster
 ${catkin_LIBRARIES}
)

add_executable(turtle_tf2_listener src/turtle_tf2_listener.cpp)
target_link_libraries(turtle_tf2_listener
 ${catkin_LIBRARIES}
)

add_executable(frame_tf2_broadcaster src/frame_tf2_broadcaster.cpp)
target_link_libraries(frame_tf2_broadcaster
 ${catkin_LIBRARIES}
)

and this is frame_tf2_broadcaster.cpp file:

    #include <ros/ros.h>
    #include <tf2_ros/transform_broadcaster.h>

    int main(int argc, char** argv){
      ros::init(argc, argv, "my_tf2_broadcaster");
      ros::NodeHandle node;

       tf2_ros::TransformBroadcaster tfb;
      geometry_msgs::TransformStamped transformStamped;

     transformStamped.header.stamp = ros::Time::now();
     transformStamped.header.frame_id = "turtle1";
     transformStamped.child_frame_id = "carrot1";
     transformStamped.transform.translation.x = 0.0;
     transformStamped.transform.translation.y = 2.0;
     transformStamped.transform.translation.z = 0.0;
     tf2::Quaternion q;
           q.setRPY(0, 0, 0);
     transformStamped.transform.rotation.x = q.x();
     transformStamped.transform.rotation.y = q.y();
     transformStamped.transform.rotation.z = q.z();
     transformStamped.transform.rotation.w = q.w();

     ros::Rate rate(10.0);
     while (node.ok()){
       tfb.sendTransform(transformStamped);
       rate.sleep();
       printf("sending\n");
     }

   };

Looks like it's a syntax error or a dependency issue. Can you please share the frame_tf2_broadcaster.cpp and your CMake file? The issue will be in one of those files

I wanted to use tree frame to show point cloud in rviz and than show some markers in the same frame to visualize how the codes are analizing the points, i can do that with tf right?

ok, i hot the error, i have to change the name of ros node my_tf2_broadcaster toframe_tf2_broadcaster, before this also the tutorial says the launch file is in bin folder, but i found it inside lib. ok error solved.
