Detailed Description

template<class ROS_MSG>
class GenericSensorRosPublisher< ROS_MSG >

The parameters accepted by this device are:

Parameter name SubParameter Type Units Default Value Required Description Notes
topic - string - - Yes The name of the ROS topic opened by this device. MUST start with a '/' character
node_name - string - $topic + "_node" No The name of the ROS node opened by this device Autogenerated by default
period - double s - Yes Refresh period of the broadcasted values in seconds

Member Function Documentation

◆ attachAll()

template<class ROS_MSG >
bool GenericSensorRosPublisher< ROS_MSG >::attachAll ( const yarp::dev::PolyDriverList p)
overridevirtual

Attach to a list of objects.

Parameters
pthe polydriver list that you want to attach to.
Returns
true/false on success failure.

Implements yarp::dev::IMultipleWrapper.

Definition at line 191 of file GenericSensorRosPublisher.h.

◆ close()

template<class ROS_MSG >
bool GenericSensorRosPublisher< ROS_MSG >::close
overridevirtual

Close the DeviceDriver.

Returns
true/false on success/failure.

Reimplemented from yarp::dev::DeviceDriver.

Definition at line 178 of file GenericSensorRosPublisher.h.

◆ detachAll()

template<class ROS_MSG >
bool GenericSensorRosPublisher< ROS_MSG >::detachAll ( )
overridevirtual

Detach the object (you must have first called attach).

Returns
true/false on success failure.

Implements yarp::dev::IMultipleWrapper.

Definition at line 229 of file GenericSensorRosPublisher.h.

◆ open()

template<class ROS_MSG >
bool GenericSensorRosPublisher< ROS_MSG >::open ( yarp::os::Searchable config)
overridevirtual

Open the DeviceDriver.

Parameters
configis a list of parameters for the device. Which parameters are effective for your device can vary. See device invocation examples. If there is no example for your device, you can run the "yarpdev" program with the verbose flag set to probe what parameters the device is checking. If that fails too, you'll need to read the source code (please nag one of the yarp developers to add documentation for your device).
Returns
true/false upon success/failure

Reimplemented from yarp::dev::DeviceDriver.

Definition at line 98 of file GenericSensorRosPublisher.h.

◆ run()

template<class ROS_MSG >
void GenericSensorRosPublisher< ROS_MSG >::run ( )
overridevirtual

Loop function.

This is the thread itself. The thread calls the run() function every <period> ms. At the end of each run, the thread will sleep the amounth of time required, taking into account the time spent inside the loop function. Example: requested period is 10ms, the run() function take 3ms to be executed, the thread will sleep for 7ms.

Note: after each run is completed, the thread will call a yield() in order to facilitate other threads to run.

Implements yarp::os::PeriodicThread.

Definition at line 239 of file GenericSensorRosPublisher.h.

◆ threadRelease()

template<class ROS_MSG >
void GenericSensorRosPublisher< ROS_MSG >::threadRelease
overridevirtual

Release method.

The thread executes this function once when it exits, after the last "run". This is a good place to release resources that were initialized in threadInit() (release memory, and device driver resources).

Reimplemented from yarp::os::PeriodicThread.
