Allow configuring use tf_static (or not) for static transforms #295

Closed adamantivm closed 7 years ago

adamantivm commented 7 years ago

Many nodes and libraries in the ROS ecosystem still don't support tf_static (TF2). This makes it difficult (or impossible) to use topics published in frames whose TF chain is published through tf_static (i.e.: 'laser').

Please provide a configuration option such as use_tf_static to enable or disable the use of tf_static for the publishing of these transforms, such as it is provided in the robot_state_publisher: http://wiki.ros.org/robot_state_publisher#Parameters
