Constructor & Destructor Documentation

nodelet::Loader::Loader

(

bool

provide_ros_api = true

)

Construct the nodelet loader with optional ros API at default location of NodeHandle("~")

Todo:

Instance of ROS API-related constructors, just take #threads for the manager

Definition at line 218 of file loader.cpp.

nodelet::Loader::Loader

(

const ros::NodeHandle &

server_nh

)

Construct the nodelet loader with optional ros API in namespace of passed NodeHandle.

Definition at line 227 of file loader.cpp.

nodelet::Loader::Loader

(

const boost::function< boost::shared_ptr< Nodelet >(const std::string &lookup_name)> &

create_instance

)

Construct the nodelet loader without ros API, using non-standard factory function to create nodelet instances.

Member Function Documentation

bool nodelet::Loader::clear

(

)

Clear all nodelets from this loader.

Definition at line 290 of file loader.cpp.

std::vector< std::string > nodelet::Loader::listLoadedNodelets

(

)

List the names of all loaded nodelets.

Definition at line 297 of file loader.cpp.

bool nodelet::Loader::load	(	const std::string &	name,
		const std::string &	type,
		const M_string &	remappings,
		const V_string &	my_argv
	)

Load a nodelet.

Todo:

Can we delay processing the queues until Nodelet::onInit() returns?

bool nodelet::Loader::unload

(

const std::string &

name

)

Unload a nodelet.

Definition at line 276 of file loader.cpp.
