ROS1 bridge ROS2

edit

Hi,

I am trying to communicate ROS1 (Melodic) and ROS2 (Dashing), but I am not able after several attempts ... My ROS2 package is called new_msgs, the same name that in ROS1 workspace, with the same .msg:

YoloList.msg
YoloObstacle.msg

Now I describe the package.xml and CMakeLists.txt of ROS2 workspace:

package.xml:

Now I describe the package.xml and CMakeLists.txt of ROS1 workspace:

</package>

CMakeLists.txt

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.3)
project(new_msgs)

find_package(catkin REQUIRED COMPONENTS
  roscpp
  rospy
  sensor_msgs
  std_msgs
  message_generation
)

add_message_files(
   FILES
   Header.msg
   YoloList.msg
   YoloObstacle.msg
 )

generate_messages(
   DEPENDENCIES
   sensor_msgs
   std_msgs
 )

catkin_package(
#  INCLUDE_DIRS include
#  LIBRARIES new_msgs
CATKIN_DEPENDS roscpp rospy sensor_msgs std_msgs
#CATKIN DEPENDS message_runtime
#  DEPENDS system_lib
)

include_directories(
# include
  ${catkin_INCLUDE_DIRS}
)

In both cases the content of the messages is exactly the same:

Header.msg

#Common Header for ROS2-ROS1 communication

uint32 seq
int32 sec
uint32 nanosec
string frame_id

YoloObstacle.msg

string type
float64 probability
float64 x1
float64 y1
float64 x2
float64 y2
float64 h
float64 w
float64 l
float64 tx
float64 ty
float64 tz
int8 object_id

YoloList.msg

new_msgs/Header header
YoloObstacle[] yololist # Cannot write the name file with the same msg name (YoloList in this case)

Then, when I try to compile by using:

colcon build --merge-install --symlink-install --packages-select ros1_bridge --cmake-force-configure

I get the following error:
