I am looking at adding some code to the publisher and subscriber base code.

Lets start at the beginning, it looks to me that both python and c++ use the same underlying subscription.cpp/hpp code in rclcpp and for python its just wrapped. If i’m wrong thats the issue.

Moving on:

I modified subscription.hpp in rclcpp to print a message in the void handle_message function (everytime you receive a message) it is logged under the RCLCPP_INFO flag so it should print by default.

When I run the pub sub tutorial in python I get no extra print messages.

When I run the pub sub tutorial in c++ I get the print messages.

That's the issue. rclcpp and rclpy are both wrapping a C library called rcl. A change in rclcpp won't affect rclpy.

There's a helpful diagram on this page: http://docs.ros2.org/eloquent/develop...
