I followed rosjava_core 0.0.0-SNAPSHOT documentation.
What's the meaning of this command?
rosws merge /opt/ros/electric/.rosinstall
Is it suitable for any ROS version?
Thank you~
rosws merge merges your local .rosinstall with another rosinstall file. Often projects define several stacks or packages to download from different sources in a single xyz.rosinstall file. Rather than copying the contents of that file into your local .rosinstall file, you can use rosws merge.
Calling
rosws merge foo.rosinstall
is equivalent to calling
rosinstall . foo.rosinstall
The rosws command works with any ROS version.
Also see the rosws documentation: http://www.ros.org/wiki/rosws
Please have a look at the ros overlay installation page for more information on how to properly set up a ros overlay. You need to merge /opt/ros/electric/.rosinstall to your current workspace if you want to use stacks installed as debian pkgs.
A ros workspace is a directory that contains a .rosinstall file that points to all repositories you installed from source, to local directories that should be part of your ROS_PACKAGE_PATH. rosws merge merges the content of another rosinstall file with your workspace.
