Member Function Documentation

def rocon_conductor.connection_manager.Connections.join ( self )

    Wait for the thread to terminate. Note that it doesn't need help - it will terminate
    when ros shuts down.

Definition at line 346 of file connection_manager.py.

def rocon_conductor.connection_manager.Connections.lost_connection_cb	(	self,
		lost_zconf_client
	)

   Relays removed zeroconf connections from the zeroconf/lost_connections topic.

Definition at line 279 of file connection_manager.py.

def rocon_conductor.connection_manager.Connections.new_connection_cb	(	self,
		new_zconf_client
	)

   Relays removed zeroconf connections from the zeroconf/new_connections topic.

Definition at line 258 of file connection_manager.py.

def rocon_conductor.connection_manager.Connections.new_registration_cb	(	self,
		client
	)

Definition at line 255 of file connection_manager.py.

def rocon_conductor.connection_manager.Connections.publish_discovered_clients ( self )

Utilities.

    Provide a list of currently discovered clients. This goes onto a 
    latched publisher, so subscribers will always have the latest
    without the need to poll a service.

Definition at line 357 of file connection_manager.py.

def rocon_conductor.connection_manager.Connections.run ( self )

Come in spinner!

  This loop currently runs a watchdog and publishes current client list.
  See the watchdog method for more detailed information.
   
  Todo: fix a race condition when calling concert_clients in this thread.

Definition at line 328 of file connection_manager.py.

def rocon_conductor.connection_manager.Connections.spin ( self )

  Convenient label if we're spinning in the main thread (i.e. not using this class's thread)..

Definition at line 340 of file connection_manager.py.

def rocon_conductor.connection_manager.Connections.unique_name_generator	(	self,
		suggested_name
	)

  Checks if the suggested name is currently unique and if not, stamps it with a # to guarantee 
  uniqueness.
  
  This could be a little bit 'nicer'. The # increments for every robot, not in parallel for every 
  robot with a particular suggested name. i.e. irobi, robosem, irobo_1, robosem_2, robosem_3, 
  irobi_4.

def rocon_conductor.connection_manager.Connections.watchdog	(	self,
		master
	)

  This keeps tab on the ros master's xmlrpc api to check for new incoming connections.
  It's a bit naive, but it does the job - at least until we can do proper invites across
  the board (android is on-connect only atm).
