Hello, everyone.

Thank for looking this thread.

I want to get end-effector(linkt)'s pose using `moveit::planninginterface::MoveGroupInterface::getCurrentPose()`.

But, I could not get end-effector's pose and orientation like below( I wonder that frame_id is world).

header: 
  seq: 0
  stamp: 74.419000000
  frame_id: world
pose: 
  position: 
    x: 0
    y: 0
    z: 0
  orientation: 
    x: 0
    y: 0
    z: 0
    w: 1

I got following error (Failed to fetch current robot state)

robot@robot-NG:~$ rosrun sia20_control sequential_ik_solver

When I run following program.

#include <iostream>
#include <ros/ros.h>
#include <geometry_msgs/Twist.h>
#include <trajectory_msgs/JointTrajectory.h>
#include <moveit/move_group_interface/move_group_interface.h>

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
    ros::init(argc, argv, "sequential_ik_solver");
    ros::NodeHandle node_handle;
    ros::AsyncSpinner spinner(3);
    spinner.start();
    std::cout << "Is start spinner? " << std::boolalpha << spinner.canStart() << std::endl;
    const std::string PLANNING_GROUP = "panda_arm";
    moveit::planning_interface::MoveGroupInterface move_group(PLANNING_GROUP);
    //move_group.setEndEffectorLink("link_t");
     std::cout << "end effector name is " << move_group.getEndEffector() << std::endl;

    while (ros::ok()) {
        std::cout << move_group.getCurrentPose() << std::endl;
   }

   return 0;
   }

I found the cause, take a look following image. My program which try to get end-effector pose is sequenceiksolver. It subscribes /jointstates topic which is not published. And /sia20/jointstates topic which contains joints information is published from gazebo. I want /sequenceiksolver to subscribe /sia20/joint_states topic. How should I do?

I'm glad if you know how to solve this problem it or come up with the cause, let me know it.

Thanks in advance.
