.h files for services not created

asked Jun 6 '18

Dear All,

I am developing services for an application and catkin build gave me the following error:

Errors << waypoint_node:make /home/fabrice/catkin_demo_ws/logs/waypoint_node/build.make.000.log                                      
In file included from /home/fabrice/catkin_demo_ws/src/waypoint_node/src/waypoint_node.cpp:12:0:
/home/fabrice/catkin_demo_ws/src/waypoint_node/include/waypoint_navigator/waypoint_node.h:49:43: fatal error: waypoint_navigator/GoToHeight.h: no file

Looks like the .h for the xxx.srv files have not been created and indeed there did not appear in catkin_ws/devel/include

I am running Ros kinetic on ubuntu 16.04

Here is the content of package.xml

<package>
  <name>waypoint_node</name>
  <version>2.0.0</version>
  <description>Waypoint waypoint_node</description>

  <build_depend>geometry_msgs</build_depend>
  <build_depend>sensor_msgs</build_depend>

  <build_depend>roscpp</build_depend>
  <build_depend>std_msgs</build_depend>

  <run_depend>sensor_msgs</run_depend>
  <run_depend>tf</run_depend>
  <run_depend>message_runtime</run_depend>   
</package>

Cmake content:

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.3)
project(waypoint_node)
find_package(catkin REQUIRED COMPONENTS
    roscpp
    mavros
    sensor_msgs
    geometry_msgs
    message_generation
)

# generate services in the 'srv' folder
add_service_files(
  FILES
  GoToHeight.srv
  GoToWaypoint.srv
  GoToWaypoints.srv
)

## Generate added messages and services with any dependencies listed here
generate_messages(
  DEPENDENCIES
  geometry_msgs std_msgs
)

catkin_package(
    LIBRARIES 
    CATKIN_DEPENDS  roscpp mavros std_msgs geometry_msgs sensor_msgs message_runtime
)

include_directories(
    ${catkin_INCLUDE_DIRS}                                                           
)

include_directories(include ${catkin_INCLUDE_DIRS})    
add_executable(waypoint_node src/waypoint_node.cpp)    
add_dependencies(waypoint_node ${catkin_EXPORTED_TARGETS})
target_link_libraries(waypoint_node ${catkin_LIBRARIES})
add_dependencies(waypoint_node ${PROJECT_NAME}_generate_messages_cpp)
install(TARGETS waypoint_node
  ARCHIVE DESTINATION ${CATKIN_PACKAGE_LIB_DESTINATION}
  LIBRARY DESTINATION ${CATKIN_PACKAGE_LIB_DESTINATION}
  RUNTIME DESTINATION ${CATKIN_PACKAGE_BIN_DESTINATION}
)

install(DIRECTORY launch
  DESTINATION  ${CATKIN_PACKAGE_SHARE_DESTINATION}
)

I join as well the content of the directory

waypoint_node
├── CMakeLists.txt
├── include
   └── waypoint_navigator
       ├── waypoint_navigator_node.h
       └── waypoint_node.h
├── launch
   ├── mav_sim.launch
   └── waypoint_navigator.launch
├── LICENSE
├── package.xml
├── README.md
├── src
   ├── waypoint_navigator_node.cpp
   ├── waypoint_nav_node.cpp
   └── waypoint_node.cpp
├── srv
   ├── ExecutePathFromFile.srv
   ├── GoToHeight.srv
   ├── GoToWaypoint.srv
   └── GoToWaypoints.srv
└── viz
└── waypoint_navigator_sim.viz.rviz

Does anybody faces the same issue and thus where is my mistake?

Thank you for your help

Fabrice

Since you used FILES to generate the header files, you should find the .h files generated in the following directory: ~/catkin_demo_ws/devel/include/waypoint_node/

Generally: ~/ws/devel/include/project_name_as_listed_in_the_CMakeLists_file

and since you used:

include_directories(
        ${catkin_INCLUDE_DIRS}                                                           
    )

you can directly include files in the ~/ws/devel/include/ directory, as follows:

#include "waypoint_node/GoToHeight.h"

The problem simply for your case is that you're using a wrong project name "waypoint_navigator"
