• Fixing driver_base package.xml and CMakelist
• Version bump for release.
• Catkinized
• rosbuild2 taking shape
• Made all the tests that change the driver state more reliable by doing multiple retries.
• Added Ubuntu platform tags to manifest
• Took out state from driver_node.h. It was a vestigial remain from an early version that was causing occasional shutdowns at node startup.
• driver_common: adding in brief descriptions
• Set reviewed tags on all packages.
• Fixed SIGUHP to SIGHUP.
• Added SIGHUP handler to driver_base. Prints a warning and continues.
• Took out message when reconfigure was unable to return to previous state, as it should be covered by other error messages.
• Changed diagnostic summary messages
• Switched over to ROS's default CTRL+C handler to better support CTRL+C when there is no master (and probably other cases too).
• Now holds the lock while doing diagnostics and self_test. Avoids some nasty problems when doing dynamic_reconfigure during self_test.
• Added ability to add diagnostic items to the Driver Status diagnostic. Better control over when status messages get printed.
• Fixed warning.
• Took node name out of driver status diagnostic heading since it is added by the diagnostic_updater.
• Got rid of a deadlock case when external reconfiguration happens at the same time as the device is trying to reconfigure itself.
• Removed obsolete services (seem to have been an early attempte at dynamic_reconfigure).
• cstdio include required for vsnprintf on ubuntu karmic (gcc 4.4)
• Changed sleep(0.1) in main loop into a ros::Duration(0.1).sleep. Doesn't eat CPU now.
• Renamed self_test::Sequencer to self_test::TestRunner as per API review.
• Added missing header
• Got rid of non-constant format string.
• Changed locking on status message to avoid deadlocks when exiting streaming thread.
• Added missing include of stdarg.h
• Added support for debugging messages that only get displayed when the driver state changes.
• Changed sleep behavior in main loop. Now sleeps for a second if there is a crash, but normally only sleeps for 100ms.
• Marked driver_base as internal only for now.
• Remove use of deprecated rosbuild macros
• Updated to new dynamic_reconfigure transport. Added setparam command to dynparam.
• Removed race condition from DriverNode that was causing a spurious device restart after reconfigure.
• Fixed include files, added exception handling, added node handle for private namespace.
• Continued debugging wge100_multi_reconfigurator. Fixed a locking bug in driver_common.
• added missing signal.h include
• updated self_test, diagnostic_updater, dynamic_reconfigure and wge100_camera to use new ~ namespace access method
• Updated package URLs.
• Typo in previous commit.
• Updated manifest.
• Split apart the open and ID self-test steps.
• Updated adds into add as part of the diagnostic message update.
• Added a postOpenHook.
• Bug slipped into previous commit.
• If self-test retries it now issues a warning.
• Increased led_test tolerance to 2. Allowed self test to retry open and start commands before failing.
• Forgotten changes to driver_base that were breaking the build.
• Changed nomenclature in driver_base. Renamed method names to use camelCase. Got forearm_node working with driver_base: now appears to be working well.
• Continuing to move driver_base.
• Moving driver_base.
