Missing prosilica_gige_sdk command line tools #4

Closed mitchellwills closed 9 years ago

In hydro all of the command line tools (SampleViewer, ListCameras, etc.) that used to be distributed in the prosilica_gige_sdk package appear to be missing. The package also seems to have been removed from this repository during the cakinization process.

I think the prosilica_gige_sdk is released separately now, @ahendrix did the releasing so I'll let him comment on that.

The prosilica gige sdk is now released separately: https://github.com/ros-drivers/prosilica_gige_sdk . This was done because it is a separate library, and because it allows me to version it separately.

The manual clearly states:

Distribution The following files may be redistributed for use with Prosilica/AVT cameras only: PvAPI.dll PvNET.dll PvJNI.dll psligvfilter.inf psligvfilter_m.inf psligvfilter.sys Allied Vision Technologies GigE Filter Installer.exe Allied Vision Technologies Viewer Installer.exe libPvAPI.so libPvAPI.a libImagelib.a No other files from the SDK may be redistributed without written permission from Allied Vision Technologies.

Since I was not able to find record of having received written permission to redistribute the example programs, I am no longer distributing them.
