Awesome! Indeed the reason I was asking this is due to Windows related build issues.

REP-2000 is stating that ROS 2 is targeting C++14. What about C? Is it a safe assume that all packages are compiled against C11?

Hello, I am trying to release a stack which depends on Eigen3 as a system dependency. It works for all platforms on Electric/Unstable except Maverick where the CMake Eigen macro is not found:

 [rosbuild] Building package walk_interfaces
 [rosbuild] Cached build flags older than manifests; calling rospack to get flags
 [rosbuild] Including /opt/ros/electric/stacks/ros_comm/clients/roslisp/cmake/roslisp.cmake
 [rosbuild] Including /opt/ros/electric/stacks/ros_comm/clients/rospy/cmake/rospy.cmake
 [rosbuild] Including /opt/ros/electric/stacks/ros_comm/clients/cpp/roscpp/cmake/roscpp.cmake
  CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:18 (find_package):
    Could not find module FindEigen.cmake or a configuration file for package
    Eigen.

Adjust CMAKE_MODULE_PATH to find FindEigen.cmake or set Eigen_DIR to the
directory containing a CMake configuration file for Eigen.  The file will
have one of the following names:

  EigenConfig.cmake
  eigen-config.cmake

Did anyone else encountered the same problem? Is there any issue with Eigen support on Maverick?

Thanks.

It seems to me that the OpenCV dependency is not pulled correctly.

See the job here and the Bloom release repository here.

I have opencv2 both as build_depend and run_depend. However the ros-groovy-opencv2 package does not pull the OpenCV packages currently so I am a bit lost.

2014-04-20 13:20:58 -0500 marked best answer dynamic_reconfigure and catkin

Dear all, I would like to know if there is a way, even a workaround, of generating dynamic_reconfigure files from a catkin package. AFAIK, there is no way currently to use dynamic_reconfigure in a catkin package as the CMake macro is not compatible (rely on rosbuild macros).

  1. Is there a workaround?
  2. Is it planned for dynamic_reconfigure to switch to catkin?

Thanks!
