Use && instead of & for boolean logic

Instead of obj_coords.points[i] = pt, use obj_coords.push_back(pt). obj_coords.points is a vector, and is initialized w

The .so: undefined reference to symbol indicates the complication is failing at the linker. First off, I would check if

Launching Gazebo paused, setting the model configuration via a gazebo service, then unpausing is the best I have found.

tf2::convert is not designed to convert one message to a different message. http://docs.ros.org/kinetic/api/tf2/html/im

You can do this entirely from launch functions, as spawn_model has an "-unpause" option

Launching Gazebo paused, setting the model configuration via a gazebo service, then unpausing is the best I have found. However, you can do this completely from the launch file, as "spawn_model" has an option to unpause gazebo.

  <node name="urdf_spawner" pkg="gazebo_ros" type="spawn_model" respawn="false" output="screen"
    args="-urdf -model rrbot -param robot_description
          -J joint1 1.0
          -unpause"/>

Note: If you have to spawn multiple models I would not use this method. The order of node launching isn't guaranteed, thus you might unpause gazebo before you intend.

Start gazebo paused, then have spawn_model unpause gazebo.

<include file="(find gazebo_ros)/launch/empty_world.launch">
   ...
   <arg name="paused" value="true">
</include>

<node name="arm_base_spawn_urdf" pkg="gazebo_ros" type="spawn_model" args="-urdf -param robot_description -model schunk_lwa4p_and_base 
    -J schunk_lwa4p_and_base::J_foldingSupport 0.075 
    ...
    -unpause 
    ..."/>

If this does not work, you can make your own version of "spawn_model", where you can pause gazebo, set the configuration, reset your joint controller, then unpause gazebo.
