ROS + OROCOS migration

Hello,

I am currently using ROS diamondback and OROCOS 2.4 on standard Linux
Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit. I installed everything via Synaptics.
What is the least painful way to move to ROS electric + OROCOS 2.5?
Uninstall everything from diamondback and install all needed stuff
from electric?

Thank you very much in advance :)

Best regards,
Milan

You can even install both of them next to each other, just install ros-
electric-orocos-toolchain and friends and source the setup.bash from the
/opt/ros/electric directory instead of the diamondback version.

That should do the trick.

Be aware that your code may require some changes to fit 2.5 ROS
integration.

To do the changes, do:

rosrun rtt_rosnode rtt-upgrade-2.5<package_dir>

as is stated here: http://www.ros.org/wiki/rtt_ros_integration

ROS + OROCOS migration

Hello,

Thank you all :) I think I will remove the old version in the end,
just to be sure.

And yep... I will have to change manifest.xml, CMakeLists.txt and
probably something else in my OROCOS components.

Best regards,
Milan
