Hi,

I'm using ROS Hydro on Ubuntu 12.04.03 LTS. When I try to use the inflation layer plugin within my costmap, my whole programm crashes in 4 of 5 times with a segmentation fault. This is what I do...

First I'm doing the initialization of the costmap:

tf_listener_Ptr.reset(new tf::TransformListener());
if(!ros::param::has(n_priv.getNamespace()+"/merlin_costmap/robot_base_frame"))
{
 cout << "Setting param " << (n_priv.getNamespace()+"/merlin_costmap/robot_base_frame") << endl;
 ros::param::set(n_priv.getNamespace()+"/merlin_costmap/robot_base_frame",params_str["robot_base_frame"]);
}
mCostmap_Ptr.reset(new costmap_2d::Costmap2DROS("merlin_costmap",*(tf_listener_Ptr.get())));

Then I'm doing some other stuff, which is unrelated to the costmap...

And now this is the place where the programm possibly crashes:

while(ros::ok() && !map_set && !stChk_Ptr->isTFInitialized()){
    spinOnce();
}

with the following stacktrace:

This are my costmap.yaml files (in analogy to the move base tutorial): common_costmap_params.yaml

publish_frequency: 1.0
obstacle_range: 2.5
raytrace_range: 3.0
footprint: [ [-1,-1], [1,-1], [1,1], [-1, 1]]
#robot_radius: ir_of_robot
inflation_radius: 0.55

and global_costmap_params.yaml

#global_costmap:
plugins:   
   - {name: static_map,       type: "costmap_2d::StaticLayer"}
   - {name: obstacles,        type: "costmap_2d::ObstacleLayer"}
   - {name: inflater,         type: "costmap_2d::InflationLayer"}
global_frame: map
robot_base_frame: base_link
update_frequency: 5.0
static_map: false
width: 100
height: 100
#rolling_window: false
obstacles:
  observation_sources: laser_scan_sensor
  laser_scan_sensor: {sensor_frame: /laser, data_type: LaserScan, topic: /scan, marking: true, clearing: true}

When I comment the line with the inflater plugin in the global_costmap_params.yaml and also when I launch move_base with this parameters as described in the ros tutorial everything works fine.

Does anybody know where the segmentation fault comes from? Are there some parameters missing in the configuration file?

Any help will be appreciated...

Update: Today I installed the released patch, but still the problem remains...

Do you still see this behavior with the latest version of the code?

sorry I forgot this question. Since a few month it works. I didn't test it with the latest code version, but as it works with older releases, it is likely to work with the latest code version....
