In order to use RosoutPanel in C++ I include rxtools/rosout_panel.h in my class and depend on rxtools in manifest.xml. In Fuerte this works fine, but in Groovy I get a compile error because it cannot find rosout_panel.h:
fatal error: rxtools/rosout_panel.h: No such file or directory
The .h-file is present on the file system (/opt/ros/groovy/share/rxtools/src/rxtools), so why is it not found?
rxtools is deprecated and replaced by rqt_common_plugins in groovy
But since the package (and the h-file) is still there it should still work right?
Yes I can roscd to it and the h-files are present in the Groovy workspace as well. You have to install rxtools separately in Groovy, so that may be why why you cannot roscd to it. I used apt-get to install it.
They are in the share folder in Fuerte as well. Is this something that has changed in Groovy that they have to be in the include folder?
I haven't tested it on my own, but the phenomenon reported sounds strange.
Meanwhile, @kalectro is right. Functionality of rxtools/rosout_panel.h should be found in rqt_console -- Since its API isn't exactly the same, you have to find the equivalent.
A problem for you if you need to stick to C++ may be that it's written in python. One (boring) workaround is to have 2 pkgs, one for python to utilize rqt_console's API and the other in C++.

I believe it's just your typo but
rosout_panel.hnotrosoutpanel.hok?Sorry about that, I am including rosout_panel.h in the code :-)
And I assume you're using
rosbuildviarosmake? If so, can you shareCMakeLists.txt?I made a very simple example that works in Fuerte but not Groovy: http://www8.cs.umu.se/~ringdahl/ros/rxtest.tar.gz
