Good results!

Hi everyone!
I haven't post in a while cause after I installed everything fine, and watched beautifully how player ran with the simple.cfg stage driver file, tried to run another one, that called other kind of drivers, but then I sadly discovered that it caused an error. Carlos L. and me spent many time trying to find what was wrong, to finally discovered that maybe in the latest version of player they changed the syntaxis and instead of having something like this in the cfg file:

requires ["odometry::position2d:0" ]

it should look like this:

requires ["odometry:::position2d:0" ]

it only needed to have another ":" after odometry.

This kind of errors make my nerves but we solved it at the end.

All the tasks were successfully done, getting some good satisfaction.

Regards

    Hi Luis,

    Thanks for your comment.

    I would encourage you to post this sort of problems, only after some time of had been googled. The idea is that everybody can see your message, and if we have experienced something similar, we can recommend you a possible answer.

    This way of working will allow our work to be more efficient and pleasent rather than trying to solve everything by ourselves (and I mean ourselves as doing it individually not in team work). I hope you won't be getting stressed in the future since the idea of this project is to have fun and learn a bit more about Robotics.

    Moreover, if you don't mind I would ask you to post your next problem directly to me and perhaps then we can both do something more as I have some experience with Player/Stage too.

    Also, I am asking you to post (and to everybody else who could be reading this message) because we will find a lot (or maybe even worse!) bugs like this, as Player/Stage is an Open Source framework. Actually, this has been so problematic that you can even ask for more professional advices in the "Help" mailing list. They should be able to answer many of your questions.

    Please feel free to contact me or Jorge whenever you would like to receive help.

    Best regards,

    Renato.
