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-fuerte-qt-ros
For a convenient roscreate-qt-legacy-pkg script to aid in building packages, download the pip roscreate package:
> sudo apt-get install python-pip > sudo pip install --upgrade roscreate
Alternatively if you want to 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
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.
