wholeBodyDynamics::iCubGenova09: Inclusion of VFT wrappers in the launch-wholebody-dynamics causes yarprobotinterface to crash #96

Open prashanthr05 opened 3 years ago

prashanthr05 commented 3 years ago

I had understood that having the VFT wrappers is required to visualize the contacts in iCubGui and to publish the estimated joint torques through ports. However, the inclusion of the VFT wrappers in the yarprobotinterface, as done in prashanthr05/robots-configuration/feature-wbd causes the interface to crash everytime during startup.

Virtual Torque wrappers are only useful when using an external WBD, so for now we can just remove them. However, the fact that they make the yarprobointerface publisher could be an indication of some other bug

This needs to be investigated.

No updates on this issue. This got pushed down since we never had use for these wrappers so far. Maybe we can close this issue and reopen when necessary.

Since it is most probably a bug, I would keep this open, but remove it from the sprints and the releases.
