RosInterface plugin setup

Post by JJrobo »

Hi
I'm having trouble getting the RosInterface plugin to work:
- I am using Ubuntu 16.04
- Ros Kinetic
- Downloaded vrep 3.4.0
- I followed the tutorial on the readme here https://github.com/fferri/v_repExtRosInterface and built a .so file
- I put the file into vrep folder
- I launched roscore
- Vrep launches but i see:

Plugin 'RosInterface': loading...
this plugin requires at least V-REP 3.4.0 rev9
Plugin 'RosInterface': load failed (failed initialization).


I can't understand why this happens, please help?

Solved it by :
- instead of using the git repo for RosInterface, I copied the code from programming folder and built it instead. RosInterface now loads. Totorials/walkthroughs could mention this
