boost::shared_ptr< const Goal > acceptNewGoal ()
 Accepts a new goal when one is available. The status of this goal is set to active upon acceptance, and the status of any previously active goal is set to preempted. Preempts received for the new goal between checking if isNewGoalAvailable or invocation of a goal callback and the acceptNewGoal call will not trigger a preempt callback. This means, isPreemptRequested should be called after accepting the goal even for callback-based implementations to make sure the new goal does not have a pending preempt request. More...

Detailed Description

template<class ActionSpec>
class actionlib::SimpleActionServer< ActionSpec >

SimpleActionServer implements a single goal policy on top of the ActionServer class. The specification of the policy is as follows: only one goal can have an active status at a time, new goals preempt previous goals based on the stamp in their GoalID field (later goals preempt earlier ones), an explicit preempt goal preempts all goals with timestamps that are less than or equal to the stamp associated with the preempt, accepting a new goal implies successful preemption of any old goal and the status of the old goal will be changed automatically to reflect this.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class ActionSpec >
actionlib::SimpleActionServer< ActionSpec >::SimpleActionServer ( std::string  name,
ExecuteCallback  execute_callback,
bool  auto_start 
)

Constructor for a SimpleActionServer.

Parameters
nameA name for the action server
execute_callbackOptional callback that gets called in a separate thread whenever a new goal is received, allowing users to have blocking callbacks. Adding an execute callback also deactivates the goalCallback.
auto_startA boolean value that tells the ActionServer whether or not to start publishing as soon as it comes up. THIS SHOULD ALWAYS BE SET TO FALSE TO AVOID RACE CONDITIONS and start() should be called after construction of the server.

Definition at line 47 of file simple_action_server_imp.h.

template<class ActionSpec >
actionlib::SimpleActionServer< ActionSpec >::SimpleActionServer ( std::string  name,
bool  auto_start 
)

Constructor for a SimpleActionServer.

Parameters
nameA name for the action server
auto_startA boolean value that tells the ActionServer whether or not to start publishing as soon as it comes up. THIS SHOULD ALWAYS BE SET TO FALSE TO AVOID RACE CONDITIONS and start() should be called after construction of the server.

DEPRECATED: Constructor for a SimpleActionServer.

Parameters

Member Function Documentation

template<class ActionSpec >
boost::shared_ptr< const typename SimpleActionServer< ActionSpec >::Goal > actionlib::SimpleActionServer< ActionSpec >::acceptNewGoal ( )

Accepts a new goal when one is available. The status of this goal is set to active upon acceptance, and the status of any previously active goal is set to preempted. Preempts received for the new goal between checking if isNewGoalAvailable or invocation of a goal callback and the acceptNewGoal call will not trigger a preempt callback. This means, isPreemptRequested should be called after accepting the goal even for callback-based implementations to make sure the new goal does not have a pending preempt request.

Returns
A shared_ptr to the new goal.
