Working with the KDL library

My group is trying to use your KDL library in a joint kinematic calculation
for a robotics simulation design. But the documentation for the library is
vague, so I need to ask.
How can we set a joint array from a joint state message in ROS?

KDL is a _library_, while your question is about how to embed a library in
a "component" infrastructure, and it would not be a good idea to polute a
library documentation with examples of how to use the library in particular
use cases.

Anyway, there are an infinite ways of doing what you want to do. Maybe this
PR2 mechanism tutorial can help you:
