Overview
The purpose of this package is to provide tools and utilities that assist people in developing with qt and ros with a minimum of effort.
Currently it includes templates and create scripts for quickly developing qt-based ros packages.
roscreate-qt-pkg for quickly templating a qt-ros package.
- Includes a master chooser as a docking element.
- Rosbuild and catkin supported.
Installation
> sudo apt-get install ros-electric-qt-ros
or via rosinstall, add the snippet to your rosinstall file or create a new one and overlay:
- git:
uri: https://github.com/stonier/qt_ros.git
local-name: qt_ros
version: electric> sudo apt-get install ros-fuerte-qt-ros
or via rosinstall, add the snippet to your rosinstall file or create a new one and overlay:
- git:
uri: https://github.com/stonier/qt_ros.git
local-name: qt_ros
version: fuerte![/!\](/moin_static193/rostheme/img/alert.png "/!\"){kind=small}
The master branch has been catkinized so it will not work unless doing a catkin source install. This is probably only desirable if doing mingw based cross-compiles.
Issues
Boost signals and qt sigslots don't play nicely. Since we'd like to move both, qt-ros in fuerte will by default use the upper case versions of the signals and slots macros.
By default, the roscreate-qt-pkg script makes it easy to build the single qt executable by globbing all your sources together. It's a simple change to make if you want to start building other target libraries and executables in the same package.
