Hey guys,

I've already found a way to change the parameters of a parameter server via my Android smartphone application. But is there a way to change my parameters of the dynamic_reconfigure?

This is my currently working solution for the normal parameter server:

protected void setup() {
    params.set("/map_information/pDestinationLat", globalParameters.getDestLat());
    params.set("/map_information/pDestinationLon", globalParameters.getDestLng());
}

How can I change this, to work with dynamic_reconfigure?

Thanks.

Are your parameters already configured to be dynamcally reconfigured ?

yes, I created two new parameters in the cfg/config.cfg and i can change them with rosrun dynamic_reconfigure dynparam set .... I already finished the dynamic_reconfigre part. Now Im on the application which should change the dynamic parameters.

Alright, then you need to use a dynamic reconfigure client to send your requests. Have you seen this tutorial ? It's for python but according to #q12276 there is also a C++ API now.

You might need to use rosjava or maybe a socket to communicate with the server.

I'm already using rosjava and it works with the parameter server. But what do I need to implement, so I can communicate with the dynamic_reconfigure server?
