• object: The most base type
  • exceptions.BaseException: Common base class for all exceptions
    • exceptions.Exception: Common base class for all non-exit exceptions.

        • roslaunch.pmon.FatalProcessLaunch: Exception to indicate that a process launch has failed in a fatal manner (i.e.
        • roslaunch.loader.LoadException: Error loading data as specified (e.g.
        • roslaunch.launch.RLTestTimeoutException
        • roslaunch.xmlloader.XmlParseException: Error with the XML syntax (e.g.
      • roslaunch.depends.RoslaunchDepsException: Base exception of roslaunch.depends errors.
      • roslaunch.substitution_args.SubstitutionException: Base class for exceptions in substitution_args routines
        • roslaunch.substitution_args.ArgException: Exception for missing $(arg) values
  • roslaunch.core.Executable: Executable is a generic container for exectuable commands.
    • roslaunch.core.RosbinExecutable: RosbinExecutables are exectuables stored in ROS_ROOT/bin.
  • roslaunch.loader.Loader: Lower-level library for loading ROS launch model.
    • roslaunch.xmlloader.XmlLoader: Parser for roslaunch XML format.
  • roslaunch.loader.LoaderContext: Container for storing current loader context (e.g.
  • roslaunch.core.Machine: Data structure for storing information about a machine in the ROS system.
  • roslaunch.netapi.NetProcess
  • roslaunch.core.Node: Data structure for storing information about a desired node in the ROS system Corresponds to the 'node' tag in the launch specification.
    • roslaunch.core.Test: A Test is a Node with special semantics that it performs a unit/integration test.
  • roslaunch.core.Param: Data structure for storing information about a desired parameter in the ROS system Corresponds to the 'param' tag in the launch specification.
  • roslaunch.pmon.Process: Basic process representation for ProcessMonitor.
    • roslaunch.server.ChildROSLaunchProcess: API for remote roslaunch processes
      • roslaunch.remoteprocess.SSHChildROSLaunchProcess: Process wrapper for launching and monitoring a child roslaunch process over SSH
    • roslaunch.pmon.DeadProcess: Container class to maintain information about a process that has died.
    • roslaunch.nodeprocess.LocalProcess: Process launched on local machine
  • roslaunch.pmon.ProcessListener: Listener class for ProcessMonitor
  • roslaunch.scriptapi.ROSLaunch: ROSLaunchParent represents the main 'parent' roslaunch process.
  • roslaunch.child.ROSLaunchChild: ROSLaunchChild infrastructure.
  • roslaunch.config.ROSLaunchConfig: ROSLaunchConfig is the container for the loaded roslaunch file state.
  • roslaunch.launch.ROSLaunchListener: Listener interface for events related to ROSLaunch.
  • roslaunch.parent.ROSLaunchParent: ROSLaunchParent represents the main 'parent' roslaunch process.
  • roslaunch.launch.ROSLaunchRunner: Runs a roslaunch.
  • roslaunch.launch.ROSRemoteRunnerIF: API for remote running
    • roslaunch.remote.ROSRemoteRunner: Manages the running of remote roslaunch children
  • roslaunch.depends.RoslaunchDeps: Represents dependencies of a roslaunch file.
  • rosgraph.xmlrpc.XmlRpcHandler: Base handler API for handlers used with XmlRpcNode.
    • roslaunch.server.ROSLaunchBaseHandler: Common XML-RPC API for the roslaunch server and child node
      • roslaunch.server.ROSLaunchChildHandler: XML-RPC API implementation for child roslaunches NOTE: the client handler runs a process monitor so that it can track processes across requests
      • roslaunch.server.ROSLaunchParentHandler: XML-RPC API for the roslaunch server node
  • rosgraph.xmlrpc.XmlRpcNode: Generic XML-RPC node.
    • roslaunch.server.ROSLaunchNode: Base XML-RPC server for roslaunch parent/child processes
      • roslaunch.server.ROSLaunchChildNode: XML-RPC server for roslaunch child processes
      • roslaunch.server.ROSLaunchParentNode: XML-RPC server for parent roslaunch.
  • threading._Verbose
    • threading.Thread
      • roslaunch.pmon.ProcessMonitor
  • basestring: Type basestring cannot be instantiated; it is the base for str and unicode.
    • str: str(object) -> string
