Hi, I want to disable the ROS logging in the console completely, but still have the logging to the /rosout topic. I tried these two options:

1. Set output="log" in the launch file. This disables the output of Debug, Info and Warning messages but still, Error and Fatal messages are shown in the console.
2. Set the logger level to Fatal but this completely disables the /rosout topic, too.

Are there any other possibilities I could try out?

Thanks!

Hi, I noticed that ROS does not correctly see message files in subfolders of the "msg" folder. The add_message_files command can take a DIRECTORY command which works partly:

add_message_files(
  DIRECTORY
  msg/subfolder1
  FILES
  testmessage.msg
)

Both catkin_make_isolated and catkin build run perfectly but after a source devel/setup.bash, the rosmsg list command does not show this testmessage. If I change the subfolder name to something different in the CMakeLists file, cmake complaints about the missing path. Hence, the folder path is recognized partly.

The only solution I found was to move all message files out of subfolders such they are directly placed at e.g., msg/testmessage.msg. Then, the rosmsg list command shows the message.

Is there another way to use subfolders for message definitions?

Thanks!

I mean the top-level package. That one that holds the main function...

Hi,

I have a precompiled library that I want to use in multiple catkin packages. Hence, I want to wrap this external library with a catkin package which then can be used in other packages with the XML command <build_depend>wrapper_library</build_depend> and the cmake command find_package(wrapper_library). Can you tell me which commands must be included in the cmakelists file of the wrapper_library such that it easily provides the wrapped library to other packages? Do these other catkin packages need more commands like the target_link_libraries(mypackage wrapper_library)? I don't really know how to start because this use case is not documented in the Ros tutorials, I think... And I am no cmake expert :)

Thanks in advance!

thanks, that helped a lot!

Ah yeah, that's indeed a solution. But I have another logging framework running that should still be able to log everyth

Yeah and I am able to automatically compile it with a similar catkin wrapper. But this library only compiles with things
