ros2 branch has ros1 headers

[ashBabu]

Hi, I would like to use sound_play in ros2 C++. The aim is that when an obstacle is detected (ros2 subscriber), provide an audio alert to the user. I followed the this and got it to work by ros2 run sound_play soundplay_node.py and ros2 run sound_play say.py "Hello". However when I do,

#include <sound_play.h>

class sound
{
sound_play::SoundClient sc_;
}

this starts complaining about ros1 headers. Any fixes for this?

I haven't implemented sound_play.h into ROS2 yet. Your contribution is welcome, but I recommend to use python version.

BTW, can you paste full error log?

Hi, thanks for the reply. I have removed all the sound_play stuff from my program and hence dont have a full error log now. From memory, I can say that these lines were the main causes and wherever ros::Nodehandle is used

I think including sound_play.h for ros2 is useless, because it doesn't support ros2....

I am actually migrating to ros2 from ros1. The sound_play.playWave() really worked for me in ros1. So was just trying to replicate the same in ros2. Any other suggestions are welcome

Thank you for this issue... I'm trying to compile sound_play in ros2 rolling but i got this error

I think because sound_play.h is only for ros1
