Not sure I understand this. As comparison on Linux when I start those two I get:
How is the current behavior on Windows different from that?
If the server is supposed to be shutting down after 3 requests, then the server part may be fine.
However, my add_two_ints_client_py.exe
never receives an answer.
One theory is that the server is sending the responses but exiting the program before the data is sent over the wire. This was another common bug in ROS 1, where someone would publish a message and then exit immediately, but the data would never get there because the program exited before the data was written to the socket.
Why is it not that the server must be killed with ctrl-c and instead the client exits automatically once it receives the responses?
The current binary build does not work for me: http://ci.ros2.org/view/packaging/job/packaging_windows/444/
Terminal1:
add_two_ints_server_py.exe
Terminal2:
add_two_ints_client_py.exe
The server never receives any request, and thus the client never a response.
if I trigger the request with
add_two_ints_client_async_py.exe
the request goes through and I get a response. The program does not terminate correctly, but that may be my windows version.
If I trigger the request with the c++ version it works just fine and the program terminates correctly:
add_two_ints_client.exe
Can anybody else confirm this? If not, I am fine with saying it's my Windows :P
I think this was a problem on multiple platforms because the server was being shut down before the response made it through. This behavior has been changed to match the one of the c++ example (the server never exits and the clients send requests one by one) in https://github.com/ros2/demos/pull/150. So I'm going to close this.
server:
add_two_ints_server_py.exe
client:add_two_ints_client_async_py.exe
it looks like the request (or better all 3 of them) is sent, but the server terminates after. The client receives the results but never terminates.
The same behavior occurs with
add_two_ints_client_py.exe
Tested with windows binary on Windows7
