Huge patch on trunk: whitespace removal

Hi,

We were noticing lately that some editors (like Eclipse) remove trailing
whitespace when a file is saved. This causes unnecessary hunks in patches.
We're preparing trunk/rtt & ocl to remove these in one commit.

The command used is:

 for i in $(find . -name '*hpp' -o -name '*cpp' | grep -v '.svn'); do 

sed -i -r 's/\t*$//' $i; done

In case you want to preview what will be done, you can use (note: echo):

for i in $(find . -name '*hpp' -o -name '*cpp' | grep -v '.svn'); do echo
sed -i -r 's/\t*$//' $i; done

Typos, corrections and suggestions for the "Getting started" tutorial

Hi all,

I found some typos and things that weren't clear to me in the tutorial. This thread is for corrections and suggestions regarding the "Getting started/Introduction to BFL" tutorial.

unclear:
2.2.1: Although the first example is fully linear, extendedkalmanfilter.h is included. This is somehow misleading. Why not just kalmanfilter.h?

consistency:
2.2.4: In the example files the prior density is named "prior_cont", but in the tutorial just "prior". The same applies to 2.3.4 where both names appear.

unclear:

Is BFL the right thing to use for my problem?

Dear BFL experts,

I found out about BFL when I searched for a library that implements a Kalman filter. So far, everything works well: The BFL examples compile and work. I also read the documentation regarding the examples.

I think that BFL could do what I want but before I start implementing the whole thing I need opinions if BFL is really the right tool for my needs. I want to avoid doing things in vain :-)

linear kalman filter example file compile errors

I am new to using BFL, well i'm really new to linux as well as g++ so this post might sound stupid to some experts.Neways i was trying to compile the test_linear_kalman.cpp found in the /orocos-bfl-0.6.1-src/examples/linear_kalman folder using the command
g++ -o test_linear_kalman.cpp
and the following errors were returned

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

/tmp/ccD1uVFD.o: In function `main':test_linear_kalman.cpp:(.text+0xbe): undefined reference to `MatrixWrapper::Matrix::Matrix(int, int)'

BFL package for GPS navigation?

I have found your site searching a solutions for my outdoor robot
lawn-mover. I am still working on conceptual things - one (a hardest) of them is positioning.
I will use 3 identical GPS +/-2 metre precission devices displaced in regular triangle - about 10
cm from each other, giving each second a global position. I will read
simulateous this data , and compute them to get estimated position by
weighting values by other reads (rotation speed from tyres, turning angle).

The question is - is there a posibility to use this BFL package to
