Hiho,

while preparing one of our packages for release I encountered a strange problem. While building for ros indigo and jade worked as supposed (no errors), there are warnings for ros kinetic and lunar, which in turn leads to an "unstable" build state. Before releasing to kinetic, i would like to get rid of the warnings.

It seems as the warning message "missing whitespace after the macro name" is related to some macro passed via command-line:
+ e.g. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3...

The package is hosted here: + https://github.com/peterweissig/ros_p...

The build-results can be found here:
+ indigo: http://build.ros.org/job/Idev__pcdfil...
+ kinetic: http://build.ros.org/job/Kdev__pcdfil...

Console-Log: http://build.ros.org/job/Kdev__pcdfil...
+ 12.1. build workspace in isolation and install

In contrast a similar package is build stable for all releases: https://github.com/peterweissig/ros_p...
+ indigo: http://build.ros.org/job/Idev__parame...
+ kinetic: http://build.ros.org/job/Kdev__parame...

Thank you for your help in advance
Peter

Hi,
I finally found the core of the problem: During the make-process the CXX-Flag "-DDISABLE_LIBUSB-1.0" will be set in the file "flags.make". This flag has a bad name as it consists of a "-" Symbol. The file itself was created during the cmake-process based on the added definitions.

The solution was to remove the bad named macro within the "CMakeLists.txt" file be adding
remove_definitions(-DDISABLE_LIBUSB-1.0)
