how do i update my current version of melodic i am running vesion 1.14.3 of melodic

I want to select a particular version of indigo to be installed how do I do this?

I want to install 1.11.16 ros indigo 1.11.16 and not the latest indigo release how do I do that

I am finding that if the the rosmaster node is rebooted on one machine and rosmaster is restarted I am finding I am having to restart all the other nodes on the remaining computer. Is their some how a way to prevent the need to restart the other nodes.

The nodelet leaks 207868 - 198449 = 9040

How do I find the memory leak in the kinect2tnl_cam1-1 process?

Any ideas?

None of the launch files and the related swissranger cod is no longer compiled in cob. Can someone point me what has gone on here?

am I to use this git https://github.com/team-diana/swissra... now?

I am buildind the system under indigo and check out the indigo branch. However their are no launch files for the running "roslaunch cob_camera_sensors" only a python script file exists.

I have had to combine 5 different computers where 1 machine is the ROS_MASTER and the other are not. I can get sub microsecond accuracy but this requires a continual time update from the master server.

I use and NTP server on the machine running ROS_MASTER. The remaining machine i run a simple cron job updating the time.

Good or bad the code compiles and links. I will need to check the routine at work: This involved linking in boost and cv_bridge also painful.

void convert_image_BGR82PNG(const sensor_msgs::Image msg) {

//Convert from the ROS image message to a CvImage suitable for working with OpenCV for processing
cv_bridge::CvImagePtr cv_ptr;
try
{
    //Always copy, returning a mutable CvImage
    //OpenCV expects color images to use BGR channel order.

    sensor_msgs::ImagePtr itI = boost::make_shared<sensor_msgs::Image>(msg);


   cv_ptr = cv_bridge::toCvCopy(itI,"bgr8");
   cv::imwrite("jnk.pcd",cv_ptr->image);

}
catch (cv_bridge::Exception& e)
{
    //if there is an error during conversion, display it
    ROS_ERROR("tutorialROSOpenCV::main.cpp::cv_bridge exception: %s", e.what());
    return;
}

}

This is the subroutine I need. What is holding me back from converting the rgb image you send me is converting to a png file. This is done by using cv_bridge to convert from ros to the cv space.

The problem is cv is expecting a const sensor_msgs::imageConstPtr msg

I only have a const sensor_msgs::image. We need to use “boost” some way to make a new member. Do you remember the syntax?

void convert_image_BGR82PNG(const sensor_msgs::Image msg) {

//Convert from the ROS image message to a CvImage suitable for working with OpenCV for processing
cv_bridge::CvImagePtr cv_ptr;
try
{
    //Always copy, returning a mutable CvImage
    //OpenCV expects color images to use BGR channel order.
    const sensor_msgs::ImageConstPtr msgIn;
   //  msgIn = msg::ConstPtr<msg>;
   //msgIn = sensor_msgs::ImageConstPtr(msg);
   cv_ptr = cv_bridge::toCvCopy(msgIn,"bgr8");
   cv::imwrite("jnk.pcd",cv_ptr->image);

}
catch (cv_bridge::Exception& e)
{
    //if there is an error during conversion, display it
    ROS_ERROR("tutorialROSOpenCV::main.cpp::cv_bridge exception: %s", e.what());
    return;
}

}

How do you get an exactime match with an errror of 0.00001 of a second?
