installation question

Hi All,

I am new to Orocos RTT, and have a few questions regarding the installation instructions on Orocos RTT website: http://www.orocos.org/wiki/orocos/toolchain/getting-started

The first step of the says:
Installation
* Default installation instructions are available at the quick-start page.
* ROS-users might want to take a look at the orocos_toolchain_ros stack.I am a little confused here. I am a ROS-user and probably what I need for real-time applications is the orocos toolchain ROS stack. But do I still need to follow the "Default installation instructions" for non-ROS users?

With many thanks,
Haitao

No, you don't. The orocos_toolchain_ros stack contains everything you
need in a ROS build system. There are debian packages available, so on
Ubuntu installation is as easy as sudo apt-get install
ros-diamondback-orocos-toolchain-ros, for example. In case your using
ROS electric, debs are on the way.

Regards,

Steven

I think the best for you is to take the orocos_toolchain_ros stack
