2.7.5 (2018-06-04)

• Don't ignore robotNamespace in gazebo_ros_control nodes (lunar-devel) (#706) * Don't ignore robotNamespace When creating the NodeHandle for reading the PID parameters, the model_nh was always ignored. Instead, all parameters were read from /gazebo_ros_control/pid_gains/<joint_name>/* instead of /<robot_name>/gazebo_ros_control/pid_gains/<joint_name>/*. This commit restores the intended behavior, i.e., the parameters will now read from <robot_name>/..., where <robot_name> is specified via the robotNamespace plugin parameter or the parent name.
• add physics type for dart with joint velocity interface (#701)
• Fix for preserving world velocity when set positions for Gazebo9: #612 This commit fixes #612, but only for Gazebo9. Fixing it for Gazebo7 (the version used in ROS Kinetic) requires the following PR to be backported to Gazebo 7 and 8: https://bitbucket.org/osrf/gazebo/pull-requests/2814/fix-issue-2111-by-providing-options-to/diff

• clean up merge from indigo-devel

• Use Joint::SetParam for joint velocity motors Before gazebo5, Joint::SetVelocity and SetMaxForce were used to set joint velocity motors. The API has changed in gazebo5, to use Joint::SetParam instead. The functionality is still available through the SetParam API. cherry-picked from indigo-devel Add ifdefs to fix build with gazebo2 It was broken by #315. Fixes #321.

• Fix DefaultRobotHWSim puts robotNamespace twice DefaultRobotHWSim::initSim() member function uses both namespaced NodeHandle and robot_namespace string to create parameter names. For example, if a robotNamespace is "rrbot", DefaultRobotHWSim tries to get parameters from following names: - /rrbot/rrbot/gazebo_ros_control/pid_gains/* - /rrbot/rrbot/joint_limits/* This commit change these names to: - /rrbot/gazebo_ros_control/pid_gains/* - /rrbot/joint_limits/*
