Detailed Description

Given a set a joint names, efficiently extracts a subset of joint positions.

This class is generally more efficient than other methods, because it caches the the mapping from the incoming joint_states message to the deflated vector. It also updates the mapping whenever the ordering in joint_states changes

Member Function Documentation

void JointStatesDeflater::deflate	(	const sensor_msgs::JointStateConstPtr &	joint_states,
		DeflatedJointStates &	deflated_elem
	)

Perform the deflation on a joint_states message.

Parameters:

	joint_states	Incoming JointStates message
	Ouput	datatype. Stores the deflated data, along with the original joint states message

Definition at line 51 of file joint_states_deflater.cpp.

void JointStatesDeflater::prune	(	const sensor_msgs::JointState &	joint_states,
		sensor_msgs::JointState &	pruned_joint_states
	)

Remove all the joints that we don't care about.

Parameters:

	joint_states	Input: The full vector of joint states
	pruned_joint_states	Output: The output vector with a subset of the joint states, in the requested order
