Calling roscd with no arguments gives "No ROS_WORKSPACE set" error while using catkin workspaces in Groovy. So it is not supported anymore?
Is there any other way to quickly jump into either top level directory of catkin workspace or its development space?
Thanks,
Boris
UPDATE: Opened a ticket.
No, currently no such tool exists. However you can manually set ROS_WORKSPACE currently, to achieve either.
You could also raise a ticket on catkin to start a discussion if you feel others would benefit from such a feature.
how to set it manually ? is so correct:
sudo gedit ~/.bashrc then type export ROS_WORKSPACE=~/catkin_ws/src
As you can read in the groovy install from source tutorial to use the older workspace system you need to create one.
The catkin workspace isn't really a workspace as the older was: meaning no global variables get set, there is no auto-looking up of the folders, no setup.bash, etc.
So if you want/need to use rosmake and the likes, you need to setup a rosws workspace just like before. Take care to point it to the actual ros root otherwise it won't work
$ rosws init ~/my_ros_workspace /opt/ros/groovy
or wherever you installed ros groovy.
