Building issue

[JuliusSustarevas]

Hi,
I'm trying to build this on u18.04 melodic. Getting this issue:

reuleaux_moveit/map_generation/include/map_generation/utility.h:7:10: fatal error: map_generation/WorkSpace.h: No such file or directory
 #include "map_generation/WorkSpace.h"

It does not seem to be related to melodic however. Any advice? The file just isn't there

I'm having the same problem here.

I sort of doubt that one year later you're still worried about this... But in case anyone else happens across this problem, here's a short explanation and fix. As you say, the header file doesn't exist. That's because in the CMakeLists file, we have the following lines:

add_message_files(
 FILES
 WsSphere.msg
 WorkSpace.msg
)

This tells us that WorkSpace.h is actually a header file containing a message definition. So what is happening here is that messages are not getting built before the rest of the project, in particular before discretization.cpp and utility.cpp. To fix this, just add the following lines underneath the add_library(...):

add_dependencies(discretization map_generation_generate_messages_cpp)
add_dependencies(utility map_generation_generate_messages_cpp)

I'm having other compilation errors, but this fixes the one mentioned here.

@jbeck28 For me it fixed the compilation error and I was able to build it (kinetic-devel branch) completly now without any more changes.

I applied the above fix to both the master and kinetic-devel branches and I am now faced with a new issue.

/home/user/catkin_ws/src/reuleaux_moveit/map_generation/src/map_generation/utility.cpp:82:33: error: ‘format’ is not a member of ‘boost’
   82 |   std::string name = str(boost::format("%s_%s_%d_reachability.h5") %robot_name %group_name % res);
      |                                 ^~~~~~
/home/user/catkin_ws/src/reuleaux_moveit/map_generation/src/map_generation/utility.cpp:82:22: error: ‘str’ was not declared in this scope; did you mean ‘std’?
   82 |   std::string name = str(boost::format("%s_%s_%d_reachability.h5") %robot_name %group_name % res);
      |                      ^~~
      |                      std

Needed to add...

#include <boost/format.hpp>

...to reuleaux_moveit/map_generation/include/map_generation/utility.h

The master branch now shows...

/home/user/catkin_ws/src/reuleaux_moveit/map_generation/src/map_generation/reachability.cpp:31:8: error: ‘moveit_msgs::PositionIKRequest’ {aka ‘struct moveit_msgs::PositionIKRequest_<std::allocator<void> >’} has no member named ‘attempts’
   31 |    req.attempts = 10;
      | 

Which is strange as the message type clearly has an attempts field.

Whereas the kinetic-devel branch now shows...

/home/user/catkin_ws/src/reuleaux_moveit/map_generation/include/map_generation/reachability.h:10:9: fatal error: moveit/move_group_interface/move_group.h: No such file or directory
   10 | #include<moveit/move_group_interface/move_group.h>
      |         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Moving over to working in this fork should anyone else find themselves here in the future.
