How to install vrep plugin in ros lunar?

Post by wetayupanta »

Hi, I'm working with Ros Lunar, but the tutorial in the installation folder is with the Kinetic version. Can you create a different compiler?

Hello,

the best is probably to check the rosInterface on Github. For the newest RosInterface to work, you will have to install the last revision of V-REP 3.4.0 that you can find here.

Cheers

Lunar hasn't been tested yet.

You'll need to modify CMakeLists.txt to add (at least)

Code: Select all

link_directories("/opt/ros/lunar/lib")
Please let us know if it works.

Thanks, added the line suggested compile but when running the vrep and install V-REP 3.4.0

Code: Select all

Plugin 'RosInterface': loading...                                                                                       
this plugin requires at least V-REP 3.4.0 rev9                                                                          
Plugin 'RosInterface': load failed (failed initialization). 
What can I do to eliminate the error?

you can safely disregard that warning, it won't affect the functionality of the plugin.
