General Information

Our software team uses Robot Operating System (ROS) to develop our code. ROS is a flexible framework developed for quickly prototyping of code for robotic applications. There are many libraries of code that use ROS which allow us to integrate them into our code base with ease.

NodeUtils

NodeUtils is a utility class which contains methods that are generally useful to nodes:

igvc::param(const ros::NodeHandle pNh, const std::string &param_name, T &param_val, const T &default_val)
Calls pNh.param with the provided parameters, outputting to ROS_ERROR_STREAM if the parameter is not provided and set from the default value
igvc::getParam(const ros::NodeHandle &pNh, const std::string &param_name, T &param_val)
Calls pNh.getParam with the provided parameters, outputting to ROS_ERROR_STREAM if the parameter is not provided, then calls ros::shutdown() to exit.
