Lets say in my src directory I have 5 packages wherein I dont want to build one...How can i use ament_ignore ?
ament build --symlink-install --AMENT_IGNORE package5
SOmething like this ? and what does symlink install do ?
To skip building specific packages in your workspace you can use the --skip-packages argument for ament:
From ament --help:
--skip-packages [SKIP_PACKAGES [SKIP_PACKAGES ...]]
Set of packages to skip
AMENT_IGNORE is a marker file that can be dropped in any directory of your workspace. This will tell the build tool to not enter that directory. It is similar to ROS1's CATKIN_IGNORE
For more information about symlink install you can refer to the "Optional symlinked install" section of the ament design article
HTH
use this command colcon build --symlink-install --continue-on-error
Using --continue-on-error for this is a pretty bad idea since it makes any kind of error unnoticed. colcon also has a command line option --packages-ignore [PKG_NAME [PKG_NAME ...]].
