Detailed Description

GenericAnalyzerBase is the base class for GenericAnalyzer and OtherAnalyzer.

GenericAnalyzerBase contains the getPath(), getName(), analyze() and report() functions of the Generic and Other Analyzers. It is a virtual class, and cannot be instantiated or loaded as a plugin. Subclasses are responsible for implementing the init() and match() functions.

The GenericAnalyzerBase holds the state of the analyzer, and tracks if items are stale, and if the user has the correct number of items.

bool diagnostic_aggregator::GenericAnalyzerBase::init	(	const std::string	base_path,
		const ros::NodeHandle &	n
	)			`[pure virtual]`

Analyzer is initialized with base path and namespace.

The Analyzer initialized with parameters in its given namespace. The "base_path" is common to all analyzers, and needs to be prepended to all DiagnosticStatus names.

Parameters:
