Rename transformations. #940

Open pifon2a opened 6 years ago

pifon2a commented 6 years ago

Current transforms have naming which is quite difficult to read when several transforms are chained, e.g.: global_pose * landmark_to_tracking.

As @SirVer suggested, it would be better to have names like: global_from_tracking, tracking_from_landmark.

Sounds good to me, but changing this in the entire code base would (in my eyes) require an RFC and is so much work I'm not sure if it's worth the effort.

A couple of sed commands :). It should not be that hard with the exception of protos.

+1 for an rfc :)
