Cannot import module control_msgs
Hi everyone,
I am currently using ROS Crystal from source. I have a second workspace where i have included the control_msgs package for bouncy. LINK.
The problem in that after successfully building the package and sourcing the corresponding install/setup.bash file, I still cannot import that particular module in python.
The error is the typical ImportError: No module named control_msgs
.
Any advide? Thanks
UPDATE
Trying to fix this myself at: https://github.com/nzlz/control_msgs/tree/crystal-devel

Looking at the CMakeLists.txt
file of the package I don't think it is functional at the moment. While it enumerates several interface files (https://github.com/ros-controls/control_msgs/blob/d6e9ea87b3fdbb3449e8c63d70c51fbb939680fe/control_msgs/CMakeLists.txt#L24-L43) it doesn't call rosidl_generate_interfaces
anywhere. You might want to fill a ticket upstream about the problem.

Okay, thanks!

Hello Dirk,
I submitted the issue but I got no answer. Since I have an old repo that I manage to build successfully, I am just trying to migrate the control_msgs myself. Could you please take a look at the updated post?
Thanks in advance,

I have now added an issue to track this: https://github.com/ros-controls/control_msgs/issues/25

What does
python --version
say?Asked by allenh1 on 2018-12-13 14:29:00 UTC
2.7 and 3.6.7. But this must be an issue related to he control_msgs repo as @dirk-thomas has pointed.

Were you able to compile
https://github.com/nzlz/control_msgs
? I had to addunique_identifier_msgs
as a dependency.Asked by ipa-hsd on 2019-02-22 10:31:01 UTC
