Changes

Compiler features

The PUBLIC and INTERFACE values set by target_compile_features have been changed back from cxx_std_20 to cxx_std_17, to permit to continue to compile downstream projects with C++17. This is not a long term decision, and in future the minimum C++ version required to compile headers could be increased again.

  • RPCMessagesParser: several calls to various motor control interfaces have been protected so that if an interface is not available in the hardware device (i.e. the view() fails), the controlboardwrapper/yarprobotinterface does not segfaults.

multipleanalogsensorsremapper

  • Add more verbosity when sensor name is not found.

Tools

yarprobotinterface

  • yarprobotinterface: is now able to parse enabled_by and disabled_by xml attributes. See yarprobotinterface Doxygen documentation.

Yarp companion

  • Fixed yarp command write throwing segmentation fault when argc was less than 2.

Integration Tests

  • Tests: Added integration tests to check the correct execution of the following commands: yarp --version yarpdev --list yarp plugin --all
  • Tests: If no plugins are available, the command yarp plugin --all now returns 0 (OK) instead of 1 (ERROR).

YARP 3.6.0 Release Notes

A (partial) list of bug fixed and issues resolved in this release can be found here.

Important Changes

Dependencies

  • SWIG 4 or later is now required to build YARP bindings
  • CMake 3.16 or later is now required
  • A compiler that supports C++17 is now required

Deprecation and Behaviour Changes

Devices

  • Deprecation of the devices replaced by NWS/NWC was postponed to the next release.
  • The following devices will be replaced by NWS/NWC in the next release, and print a warning when opened:
    • localization2DClient (replaced by localization2D_nwc_yarp)
    • map2DClient (replaced by map2D_nwc_yarp)
    • navigation2DServer (replaced by navigation2D_nws_yarp)

New Features

Libraries

conf

  • The YARP_VERSION_COMPARE macro has been added to version.h to simplify how YARP versions are compared e.g. in #if guards. For instance, the condition #if YARP_VERSION_COMPARE(>=, 3, 6, 0) will yield true if the current YARP version is equal to or greater than 3.6.0.

os

  • Added CommandBottle class. This is a class that contains both the command and the reply. The only advantage of this class compared to using two bottles is that portmonitors are able to know, in the updateReply method, what was the request for the reply received.
Log
  • In addition to the previously supported std::vector, it is now also possible to call yInfo() << collection where the collection is a std::array, std::list, std::set, std::map, C-array, std::tuple...
  • Added the new family of logging macros with "Id" (yIDebug). See documentation.
  • The YARP_LOG_PROCESS_LABEL environment variable is now checked when output is forwarded. If found, the label is appended to the executable name in the log port name e.g. (/log/hostname/yarpdev[mylabel]/123123)
ConnectionWriter
  • Replaced getBuffer with const/non-const versions
ConnectionReader
  • flushWriter is now an interface method.
idl/WireReader
  • Added getReader() method.
idl/WireWriter
  • Flush the connection when the object is destroyed.

sig

  • Added new method yarp::sig::soundfilters::resample() contained in the new header file yarp/sig/SoundFilters.h.

dev

  • Added new interfaces:
    • yarp::dev::IJointFault.
    • yarp::dev::Nav2D::IOdometry2D.
DeviceDriver
  • Added id() and setId() methods
PolyDriver
  • The device id can be set passing the id option to the open method (or passing --id to yarpdev).
Nav2D::INavigation2DVelocityActions
  • applyVelocityCommand() method was moved from yarp::dev::Nav2D::INavigation2DTargetActions to a new interface yarp::dev::Nav2D::INavigation2DVelocityActions.
Nav2D::MapGrid2D
  • Added internal lossless compression for datatype yarp::dev::Nav2D::MapGrid2D using Zlib: the methods yarp::os::Portable::write() and yarp::os::Portable::read() handle the compression before sending data to the network. The method MapGrid2D::enable_map_compression_over_network() enables/disables the data compression over the network (default true). If the Zlib library is not available, compression will be disabled.
Nav2D::Map2DArea
  • Added new method Map2DArea::getCentroid().
  • Added new description field which can now be filled by the user for generic purposes.
Nav2D::Map2DLocation
  • Added new description field which can now be filled by the user for generic purposes.
Nav2D::Map2DPath
  • Added new description field which can now be filled by the user for generic purposes.
Nav2D::IMap2D
  • Added the following methods:
    • getAllLocations(std::vector<yarp::dev::Nav2D::Map2DLocation>& locations)
    • getAllAreas(std::vector<yarp::dev::Nav2D::Map2DArea>& areas)
    • getAllPaths(std::vector<yarp::dev::Nav2D::Map2DPath>& paths)
Nav2D::INavigation2D
  • INavigation2D interface now derives from IMap2D interface

Devices

  • Most of the clients/nwcs now implement the option carrier to set the carrier for the connection with the server.

  • Added the following new EXPERIMENTAL devices:

    • rpLidar3 that supports the 3rd revision of the rpLidar hardware.
    • fakeOdometry that generates a fake odometry and makes it available from IOdometry2D interface.
    • fakePositionSensor that simulate a position sensor and makes it available through the IPositionSensors and IOrientationSensors interfaces.

  • Added more EXPERIMENTAL devices in order to implement the Network Wrapper Server/Client Architecture described in ef nwsandnwc_architecture. These devices do not implement internal logic, therefore they might need to be used together with a different device. This architecture and all these devices are to be considered experimental, and may be modified/renamed/removed at any time without any notice.

    • localization2D_nwc_yarp: YARP NWS which connects to localization2D_nws_yarp: and can be used to replace localization2DClient
    • map2D_nwc_yarp YARP NWS which connects to map2D_nws_yarp and can be used to replace map2DClient
    • mobileBaseVelocityControl_nws_yarp: YARP NWS to control the velocity of a mobile base.
    • mobileBaseVelocityControl_nwc_yarp: YARP NWC to control the velocity of a mobile base.
    • mobileBaseVelocityControl_nws_ros: ROS NWS to control the velocity of a mobile base.
    • navigation2D_nws_yarp: YARP NWS that can be used to replace navigation2DServer.
    • navigation2D_nwc_yarp: YARP NWC that connects to map2D_nws_yarp, localization2D_nws_yarp and navigation2D_nws_yarp.
    • odometry2D_nws_yarp: YARP NWS which can be attached to a IOdometry2D interface and publish the data on a YARP port.
    • odometry2D_nws_ros: ROS NWS which can be attached to a IOdometry2D interface and publish the data on a ROS topic.

fakeLaser

  • Can now be connected to localization2D_nwc_yarp instead of localization2DClient

frameTransformServer

  • Added the option to use an extern xml file (by providing its absolute path).

frameTransformClient

  • Added the option to use an extern xml file (by providing its absolute path).
  • Added optional parameter FrameTransform_verbose_debug

frameTransformStorage

  • Extra debug information is now printed when parameter FrameTransform_verbose_debug is set to 1.
  • All xml files now expose the parameter FrameTransform_verbose_debug (default = 0)

frameTransformContainer

  • Extra debug information is now printed when parameter FrameTransform_verbose_debug is set to 1.
  • All xml files now expose the parameter FrameTransform_verbose_debug (default = 0)

map2DStorage

  • The new v3 file format, which includes the description for Map2DLocation, Map2DArea and Map2DPath is now supported.

map2DServer

  • Added rpc command enable_maps_compression <0/1>

remote_controlboard

  • The IJointFault device is now implemented by the device.

controlBoard_nws_yarp

  • The IJointFault device is now implemented by the device.

controlboardremapper

  • The IJointFault device is now implemented by the device.

fakeMotionControl

  • A hardware fault is now simulated when a TorqueCommand > 1Nm is received.

portaudio

  • 'id' parameter was renamed to 'dev_id'.

portaudioPlayer

  • 'id' parameter was renamed to 'dev_id'.

portaudioRecorder

  • 'id' parameter was renamed to 'dev_id'.

Port Monitors

  • Added bottle_compression_zlib portmonitor to compress bottles (or other data types which can be converted to bottle).
  • Added soundfilter_resample portmonitor to resample audio streams.
  • Added sensorMeasurements_to_vector portmonitor which converts a 6D Pose from a SensorStreamingData data type to a yarp::sig::Vector data type.

Tools

yarp

  • Added option testdata_filename to latency-test companion. It allows to load a file which will be transmitted over the network as benchmark. Different files can be used to test latency when using a compression portmonitor (the compression factor will depend on the entropy of the file).

yarprun

  • If the environment variable YARP_LOG_PROCESS_LABEL is found, the label is now appended to the executable name in the log port name (e.g. /log/yaprunname/yarpdev[mylabel]/123123)

robotinterface

  • Added --dryrun option to test the xml file without actually opening devices.
  • Added reverse-shutdown-action-order attribute for the robot tag. This reverses the order of actions in shutdown and interrupt phase, making it easier to write the actions when multiple attach and detach are involved.
  • All device tag parameters are now passed to all devices defined inside that tag.
  • Added the YARP_PORTNUMBER<XXX> environment variable. This allows to change the port number on which the corresponding port is opened by setting the YARP_PORTNUMBER<XXX> environment variable to the desired port number of the port. For example: YARP_PORTNUMBER_read=20050 yarp read /read will open a port named /read on the 20050 port. Port numbers (if present) are applied before prefixes specified with YARP_PORT_PREFIX and renames specified with YARP_RENAME (if present). WARNING, if the same port is opened with the same name but different port number by two processes, this might lead to port stealing by the latest process executed.

yarpidl_thrift

  • The return variable is again a class member. The updateReply method of a portmonitor is not called on the same thread that reads from the connection, therefore the return variable, as a thread_local variable, causes it to be empty. The flush performed in the WireWriter dtor, ensures that any appendExternalBlock contained in helper serializationis actually written before the helper is destroyed.
  • When rpc command is incomplete or contains extra args, the argument fails.
  • It is no longer possible to have a service function that starts with the same name as a different function (e.g. get and get_all).
  • Enum handling was heavily refactored. It is now possible to use yarp.name and yarp.includefile also for enums.
  • The 'yarp.nested' annotation was fixed. It is also now possible to annotate a struct with the yarp.bottlesize annotation, when the struct is not serialized as a bottle but as a fixed size bottle-like structure (for example other yarpidl_thrift generated structs).
  • The editor for structs is now disabled by default. The yarp.editor annotation should be passed to the struct in order to enable it.
  • Added generation of portmonitor for services. See documentation for details.

GUIs

yarpmotorgui

  • Added new page "Hardware Fault" which displays the internal hardware error.
  • Improved slider graphics, with displayed reference value (optional, enabled from the menu, default off)

yarplogger

  • Added option --unlimited_size which removes all limits on the log size. To be used with caution!

Bug Fixes

Build System

  • Fixed build of lidar sdk with clang.

Libraries

sig

  • Fixed VectorOf<T>::emplace_back returning void. Now it returns a reference to the new element as expected.

GUIs

yarplogger

  • Fixed issue related to saving/loading files containing empty strings.
  • Fixed how the limits are applied to new logs added to an on-going session.

Bindings

  • Fixed compilation of Python3 bindings on certain configurations. (#2725)

os

  • Introduced the yarp::os::Header class, intended to gradually replace the yarp::os::Stamp class to handle envelopes, maintaining backwards compatibility. The differences with the Stamp class:
    • Header has an extra field to handle the frame id, making it comparable with ROS std_msgs/Header message.

Set it to PeriodicThreadClock::Absolute to enable the new behavior, default is PeriodicThreadClock::Relative (old behavior). Beware that, in absolute mode, starvation may occur if two busy threads share a common resource (#2488).
  • Added new constructor:
    • PeriodicThread(double period, PeriodicThreadClock clockAccuracy).

XMLReader
  • The getRobotFromFile and getRobotFromString now accept a Searchable that is used to replace params with the attribute extern-name. The signatures are now: XMLReaderResult getRobotFromFile(const std::string& filename, const yarp::os::Searchable& config = yarp::os::Property()); XMLReaderResult getRobotFromString(const std::string& filename, const yarp::os::Searchable& config = yarp::os::Property());

Carriers

  • The unix_stream carrier is no longer considered experimental.

  • Added RPC commands to control the volume via setHWGain() and setSWGain().
  • It now broadcasts its internal status on a xxx/status:o port

AudioRecorderWrapper

  • Added RPC commands to control the volume via setHWGain() and setSWGain().

fakeFrameGrabber

  • added RPC port, to change its mode at runtime. It is also possibile to load a new background image at runtime. Rpc command 'help' will display available commands.
  • Added --timestamp option to write the timestamp in the first bytes of the image. This was previously automatically enabled in line mode, but it can now be used in all modes.
  • Double buffering is now used to produce the image on a separate thread. This should improve performances when generating large images.
  • The getImage() method no longer blocks the caller. The --syncro option was added to restore the old behavior.
  • The topIsLow option and the set_topIsLow rpc command were added to produce images with bottom to top scanlines.
  • Added --noise options and set_noise RPC commands to add a a white noise to the generated image.
  • Added --snr option and set_snr RPC commands. to specify the signal noise ratio if noise is enabled.

fakeLaser

  • Added rpc port to dynamically create obstacles in the map. Use the rpc command 'help' to get additional information.
  • Improved the ray tracing algorithm: laser scans are now bound to the map size.
  • Added map_context parameter to load a test map from a specific context.

fakeMicrophone

  • It now generates a fixed tone sound.

fakeNavigation

  • Several improvements for testing purposes.

frameTransformServer

  • Added a new RPC command generate_view which generates via dot (graphviz) a pdf file, containing a diagram of the transforms tree.

map2DServer

  • Added enable_maps_compression <0/1> RPC command.

navigation2DClient

  • getNameOfCurrentTarget() logic moved from Navigation2DClient to navigation2DServer.

Tools

  • Added yarpdataplayer-console tool that works without without a graphic server.

yarp

  • The read subcommand now accepts the trim argument to reduce the number of characters printed for each message received.
  • Added the following new subcommands:
    • yarp latency-test: performs a latency test exchanging data between a server and a client node.
    • yarp repeat: repeats in an output port all data received in an input port. The command is useful to control stream flows on a wifi/mobile connection.
    • yarp stats: opens a temporary port to receive data from a remote port (at maximum speed). It also prints basic statistics about data trasferred on the instantiated connection.
    • yarp trafficgen: sends generated data over a yarp port. The tool allows to test the communication and the available bandwidth over the network.

yarpdatadumper

  • The following data outputs for the --type parameter are now supported:
    • bottle (default)
    • image
    • image_jpg
    • image_png
    • video
    • depth
    • depth_compressed

yarprobotinterface

  • Arguments taken from the command line are now handled and used to replace parameters marked with the attribute extern-name.

yarpidl_thrift

  • Thrift was updated to version 0.14.1.
  • Added support for uint8_t, uint16_t, uint32_t, uint64_t, size_t, float32_t and float64_t using annotated types. It is now possible to use these types in thrift by defining them using a typedef, for example: ``` typedef i32 ( yarp.type = "yarp::conf::vocab32t" ) vocab typedef i8 ( yarp.type = "std::uint8t" ) ui8 typedef i16 ( yarp.type = "std::uint16t" ) ui16 typedef i32 ( yarp.type = "std::uint32t" ) ui32 typedef i64 ( yarp.type = "std::uint64t" ) ui64 typedef i32 ( yarp.type = "sizet" ) sizet typedef double ( yarp.type = "yarp::conf::float32t" ) float32 typedef double ( yarp.type = "yarp::conf::float32_t" ) float64

struct TestAnnotatedTypes { 1: vocab avocab, 2: ui8 aui8, 3: ui16 aui16, 4: ui32 aui32, 5: ui64 aui64, 6: float32 afloat32, 7: float64 afloat64, 8: sizet asize; } * Types annotated with "yarp.type" are no longer serialized as nested. This improves the compatibility with existing services returning Bottle or other YARP types, and makes it possible to write a thrift file for existing protocols. On the other hand, this breaks compatibility with thrift services returning Bottles or other annotated types, generated before this commit. This is a breaking change, but should impact only a very limited number of cases, and it can be easily fixed by regenerating the files. * Added support for vocabs in structs (#2476). Vocabs can be defined in this way: cpp typedef i32 ( yarp.type = "yarp::conf::vocab32t" ) vocab

struct FooStruct { 1: vocab foo; } * Added "yarp.nested" annotation for struct fields When defined = "true", this serialize a struct as a bottle instead of as a flat structure. For example, given these 2 structs: cpp struct Foo { 1: double foo1; 2: double foo2; }

struct Bar { 1: double bar1; 2: Foo ( yarp.nested = "true" ); } The `Bar` struct will be serialized as `bar1 (foo1 foo2)`, instead of as a flat struct `bar1 foo1 foo2`. * It is now possible to specify a "const" qualifier to service methods using the `yarp.qualifier` annotation. For example, this code: service Foo { bool constmethod() (yarp.qualifier = "const"); } will generate a service `Foo` with this method: c++ bool constmethod() const ```

GUIs

yarpview

  • Added the --rightout <portname> option that enables intercepting the mouse right button click events:
    • Single click (sends the current cursor coordinates to the specified output port)
    • Press, drag, and release (sends the coordinates of the press point and of the release one to the specified output port)
  • Added Image/Intercept right click checkable menu item to enable/disable the right click interception (not available in minimal or compact mode or if the --rightout option was not enabled).

yarpdataplayer

  • It is now possible to reproduce depth and depth_compressed data types.
  • The yarpdataplayer tool was refactored, several bugs fixed, and new features added (#1144, #2140, #2151, #2400, #2401, #2442).

Bindings

  • Added support for std::vector<short int>.
  • Added support for yarp::sig::VectorOf<int>.
  • Added the following extensions to yarp::sig::Sound
    • sound2VecNonInterleaved()
    • vecNonInterleaved2Sound()
    • sound2VecInterleaved()
    • vecInterleaved2Sound()

New Experimental Features

EXPERIMENTAL means that the software is under development, provided with incomplete documentation and it may be modified/renamed/removed without any notice.

Carriers

  • Added new EXPERIMENTAL websocket carrier. It works only on the receiving side, and it works on an http request that starts with "GET /?ws" (for example 'http://127.0.0.1:10002/?ws' or 'ws://127.0.0.1:10002/?ws' if a read port is opened by yarp). The websocket, on the browser side, needs to communicate using the YARP protocol.

Devices

  • Added the following new EXPERIMENTAL devices:
    • RGBDFromRosTopic: it can be wrapped by RGBDSSensorWrapper to make RGBD data, collected by a ROS device, available on YARP via RGBDSensorClient.
    • map2DStorage: store navigation data, e.g MapGrid2D,Map2DLocation etc. It implements all the logic previously located inside device 'Map2DServer'.
    • audioFromFileDevice: wrapped by audioRecorderWrapper.
    • audioToFileDevice: wrapped by audioPlayerWrapper.
    • frameGrabberCropper: attaches to a frameGrabber and published part of the image
    • frameTransformStorage
    • frameTransformSetMultiplexer
    • frameTransformGetMultiplexer
  • Several new EXPERIMENTAL devices were added in order to implement the Network Wrapper Server/Client Architecture described in #2441. These devices do not implement internal logic, therefore they might need to be used together with a different device. This architecture and all these devices are to be considered experimental, and may be modified/renamed/removed at any time without any notice.
    • controlBoard_nws_ros: ROS NWS that can be used to replace controlboardwrapper2 (does not handle networks, use controlboardremapper for that). It requires that the yarp::dev::IAxisInfo is implemented in the device.
    • controlBoard_nws_yarp: YARP NWS that can be used to replace controlboardwrapper2 (does not handle networks, use controlboardremapper for that).
    • frameGrabber_nws_ros: ROS NWS that can be used to replace grabberDual (does not handle image split, use frameGrabberCropper for that)
    • frameGrabber_nws_yarp: YARP NWS that can be used to replace grabberDual (does not handle image split, use frameGrabberCropper for that)
    • frameGrabber_nwc_yarp: YARP NWC that can be used to replace remote_grabber
    • localization2D_nws_ros: ROS NWS for devices which implement the ILocalization2D interface, that can be used to replace localization2DServer.
    • localization2D_nws_yarp: YARP NWS for devices which implement the ILocalization2D interface, that can be used to replace localization2DServer.
    • map2D_nws_ros: ROS NWS for a map2DStorage device.
    • map2D_nws_yarp: YARP NWS for a map2DStorage device.
    • rangefinder2D_nws_ros: ROS NWS for devices exposing IRangefinder2D interface.
    • rangefinder2D_nws_yarp: YARP NWS for devices exposing IRangefinder2D interface.
    • rgbdSensor_nws_ros: ROS NWS to replace RGBDSensorWrapper.
    • rgbdSensor_nws_yarp: YARP NWS to replace RGBDSensorWrapper.
    • rgbdToPointCloudSensor_nws_ros: enables point cloud publication from yarp to ros. It converts RGBD data to point cloud and publishes it on a ros topic.
    • frameTransformGet_nws_ros
    • frameTransformGet_nws_yarp
    • frameTransformSet_nws_ros
    • frameTransformSet_nws_yarp All these interfaces have the following differences with their original wrappers:
    • All deprecated parameters were removed
    • Periods are in seconds, and not in milliseconds.
    • Parameters in nws_ros devices no longer have the "ROS_" prefix".
  • Added new EXPERIMENTAL devices frameTransformClient and frameTransformServer. These devices are mostly empty containers for multiple plugins that can be combined together through a yarprobotinterface xml file. Different configuration files can be used for different purposes, such as publishing/subscribing transforms on YARP, ROS, ROS2 etc. Please refer to the documentation for additional details. Old devices with frame transform management functionality are called transformServer and transformClient. These devices should be now considered deprecated and they must be not confused with the new devices included in this PR. A yarp page documentation has been added to show the different possible configurations.
  • The laserFromRosTopic is still considered EXPERIMENTAL, since it will be replaced by an appropriate NWC

YARP 3.4.4 Release Notes

A (partial) list of bug fixed and issues resolved in this release can be found here.

Bug Fixes

Build System

  • Fixed use of CMAKE_INSTALL_PYTHON3DIR CMake variable to specify the installation path of Python bindings, as in previous versions the variable was defined but ignored (#2523).
  • Fixed the build of Python bindings on Windows (#2525, #2527).

Libraries

conf

  • Fixed float128_t where long double is 64 bit (#2510).

os

  • If in a yarp::os::NetworkClock a clock reset is detected, fill the gap between the waiter and the time published by the network clock port. A network clock reset is defined as a jump in the past of the time published by the network clock port. This fix avoids that all the threads that are waiting a yarp::os::NetworkClock::delay call on that network clock remain blocked when a time reset occurs (#800, #2494).
  • Fixed error in race condition during the scan of plugins in YarpPluginSelector, avoided concurrent access to variables (#2538).

Tools

yarplogger

  • Fixed crash when attempting to clear a selected log with its log tab opened (#2554).

Bindings

Python

  • Added example_callback.py, which showcases a BufferedPort with an attached callback handler for logging incoming bottles (#2555).

YARP 3.3.3 Release Notes

A (partial) list of bug fixed and issues resolved in this release can be found here.

Bug Fixes

Build System

  • Bison and flex are no longer run when crosscompiling.

Libraries

os

Bottle
  • Fixed precision for floating point numbers, to ensure that they are read as the original floating point written.
  • Fixed toString and fromString when writing or reading infinity, negative infinity or nan.
  • Fixed fromString when reading a 64 bit integer.
WireReader
  • Fixed reading a Float32 from a Float64 (#2227). This is not a common use case, but it can happen when a Float32 is written on a file, and then read again into YARP (as a Float64), and then restored in the original type using copyPortable().
Timer
  • Fixed Timer in monothread mode taking 100% of the CPU.
  • Fixed Timers in separate threads not updating their settings.

dev

  • Fixed dependency from YARP_math that should be PUBLIC. A few headers include YARP_math headers.

Devices

batteryClient

  • Fixed methods returning int instead of double:
    • getVoltage()
    • getCurrent()
    • getCharge()
    • getTemperature()

batteryWraper

  • Fixed parameters accepted by subdevice not printed with --verbose.

Navigation2DClient

  • The method checkNearToLocation now correctly checks if two orientations are similar (below a certain threshold), also considering the critical points 0, 180, 360, -180, -180, etc.

controlboardwrapper2

  • Exposed missing yarp::dev::IMotor::setGearboxRatio method via RPC.

remote_controlboard

  • Implemented missing yarp::dev::IMotor::setGearboxRatio method.
  • Fixed group command yarp::dev::IInteractionMode::getInteractionModes.

fakeBattery

  • Fixed PeriodicThread using 100% CPU.

GUIs

yarpview

  • Now the "checked" state of the two checkable elements in the File menu of yarpview (i.e. "Save single image..." and "Save a set of images...") turns to false when the corresponding dialogs are closed.

YARP 3.3.0 Release Notes

A (partial) list of bug fixed and issues resolved in this release can be found here.

Important Changes

Dependencies

  • CMake 3.12 or later is now required.
  • Optional dependency on YCM now requires version 0.11.0 or later.
  • C++14 is now required.
  • OpenCV 4 is now explicitly unsupported.
  • Visual Studio 2015 is no longer supported.

Build System

  • CMake config files are now installed in lib/cmake also on windows.
  • The OS component is deprecated in favour of os (lowercase).

Libraries

YARP_os

  • The YARP_OS was renamed YARP_os. Using the old name is still supported, but deprecated.
  • yAssert is now a proper assertion macro (removed when NDEBUG is defined, i.e. `Release builds). If the expression tested has side-effects, program behavior will be different depending on whether NDEBUG is defined. This may create Heisenbugs which go away when debugging is turned on.
  • All yarp::os::Mutex related classes and methods are now deprecated in favour of std::mutex:
    • Classes:
    • yarp::os::Mutex
    • yarp::os::RecursiveMutex
    • yarp::os::AbstractLockGuard
    • yarp::os::LockGuard
    • yarp::os::RecursiveLockGuard
    • Methods:
    • yarp::os::Contactable::setCallbackLock(yarp::os::Mutex*)
    • yarp::os::AbstractContactable::setCallbackLock(yarp::os::Mutex*)
    • yarp::os::Port::setCallbackLock(yarp::os::Mutex*)
    • yarp::os::Buffered::setCallbackLock(yarp::os::Mutex*)
    • yarp::os::Timer::Timer(..., yarp::os::Mutex*)
  • yarp::os::Network::getDirectorySeparator and yarp::os::Network::getPathSeparator are now deprecated in favour of yarp::conf::filesystem::preferred_separator and yarp::conf::filesystem::path_separatorrespectively.
  • yarp::os::Runnable is now deprecated.
  • yarp::os::RateThreadWrapper is now deprecated.
  • The yarp::os::Property constructor using 'hash_size' was deprecated (it was already unused since the internal structure was ported to use std::map).
  • yarp::os::MessageStack constructor now accepts the max number of thread as size_t instead of int.
  • yarp::os::MessageStack constructor is now explicit.
  • yarp::os::MessageStack copy and move constructors and operators are now explicitly deleted.

YARP_dev

  • All devices are now plugins. They are enabled by default, but can be disabled if required.
  • The <yarp/dev/GenericSensorInterfaces.h> include file is deprecated in favour of <yarp/dev/IGenericSensor.h>.
  • The <yarp/dev/PreciselyTimed.h> include file is deprecated in favour of <yarp/dev/IPreciselyTimed.h>.
  • The <yarp/dev/SerialInterfaces.h> include file is deprecated in favour of <yarp/dev/ISerialDevice.h>.
  • The <yarp/dev/Wrapper.h> include file is deprecated in favour of <yarp/dev/IWrapper.h> and <yarp/dev/IMultipleWrapper.h>.
  • yarp::dev::DataSource and yarp::dev::DataSource2 are now deprecated.
  • yarp::dev::DataWriter and yarp::dev::DataWriter2 are now deprecated

New Features

Build System

  • The yarp_idl_to_dir command now accepts the PLACEMENT option:
    • MERGED: headers and sources in <OUTPUT_DIR>/<namespace>
    • SEPARATE: headers in <OUTPUT_DIR>/include/<namespace> sources in <OUTPUT_DIR>/src/<namespace>
    • SEPARATE_EVEN: alias for SEPARATE
    • SEPARATE_ODD: headers in <OUTPUT_DIR>/include/<namespace> sources in <OUTPUT_DIR>/src For backwards compatibility the default value is SEPARATE_ODD.
  • After calling the yarp_add_idl method, the YARP_ADD_IDL_INCLUDE_DIR variable contains the include directory for using the header files

Libraries

YARP_conf

  • Added yarp::conf::filesystem utilities (robotology/yarp#1855).

YARP_os

  • Cleanup of the signature of the following methods of yarp::os::Network:
    • static bool connect(const std::string& src, const std::string& dest, const ContactStyle& style)
    • static bool connect(const std::string& src, const std::string& dest, const std::string& carrier = "", bool quiet = true)
    • static bool connect(const char* src, const char* dest, const char* carrier, bool quiet = true)
    • static bool disconnect(const std::string& src, const std::string& dest, bool quiet)
    • static bool disconnect(const std::string& src, const std::string& dest, const ContactStyle& style)
    • static bool disconnect(const std::string& src, const std::string& dest, const std::string& carrier = "", bool quiet = true)
    • static bool disconnect(const char* src, const char* dest, const char* carrier, bool quiet = true)
    • static bool isConnected(const std::string& src, const std::string& dest, bool quiet)
    • static bool isConnected(const std::string& src, const std::string& dest, const ContactStyle& style)
    • static bool isConnected(const std::string& src, const std::string& dest, const std::string& carrier = "", bool quiet = true)
    • static bool isConnected(const char* src, const char* dest, const char* carrier, bool quiet = true)
  • Added move constructor and assignment operator to yarp::os::Searchable.
  • Added move constructor and assignment operator to yarp::os::Bottle.
  • Added move constructor and assignment operator to yarp::os::Property.
  • Added constructors that accept std::mutex instead of yarp::os::Mutex to yarp::os::Timer.
  • The Log colors can now be enabled also on windows when supported (robotology/yarp#2076)
  • Added setCallbackLock overrides to yarp::os::Contactable, yarp::os::AbstractContactable, yarp::os::Port, yarp::os::BufferedPort to pass a std::mutex instead of a yarp::os::Mutex.

YARP_dev

  • Added new interface yarp::dev::IFrameTranformClientControl
  • yarp::dev::TransformClient implements the new interface yarp::dev::IFrameTranformClientControl.
  • The rpc port of the yarp::dev::TransformClient allows to reconnect to the server.
  • yarp::dev::TransformServer allows the use of wildcard to erase all the transforms between a specified source and * or between * and a specified destination.
  • The rpc port of the yarp::dev::TransformServer allows to delete a given transform.

YARP_run

  • The ENABLE_YARPRUN_LOG fixed and deprecated in favour of YARP_ENABLE_YARPRUN_LOG.

Tools

yarpidl_trift

  • yarpidl_thrift now places the source files according to the "separate" layout.

yarpdatadumper

  • Fixed creating directories whose name contains not allowed characters (e.g. :, *, ...).
  • It's now possible to dump PNG images.
  • The timestamp info are now provided within info.log.

GUIs

yarpdataplayer

  • info.log files containing timestamp info are now handled.

devices

multipleanalogsensorsclient

  • Added the option externalConnection(false by default). This option disables the automatic connect to the rpc:o and measures:o of the respective multipleanalogsensorsserver. This implies that with this configuration the metadata is missing, then the device lacks of some informations such as the sensor name, the frame name etc. On the other hand it allows to connect/disconnect the client to the port measures:o of the server after being opened, and to work also when the rpc:o port is missing (e.g with the yarpdataplayer).

realsense2

  • Deprecated the needAlignment parameter in favour of alignmentFrame. The default behaviour has been maintaned, if not specified alignmentFrame is RGB. The allowed values are RGB, Depth and None.

mjpeg

  • The MJPEG_AUTOCOMPRESS CMake option is deprecated in favour of YARP_MJPEG_AUTOCOMPRESS

mpi

  • The MPI_DEBUG_MSG CMake option is deprecated in favour of YARP_MPI_DEBUG_MSG.

YARP 3.0.0 (2018-06-11) Release Notes

A (partial) list of bug fixed and issues resolved in this release can be found here.

Important Changes

  • All YARP libraries can now be modified and distributed under the terms of the BSD-3-Clause license. See the accompanying LICENSE file for details.
  • Visual Studio 2013 is no longer supported.
  • CMake 3.5 or later is now required.
  • Optional dependency on YCM now requires version 0.8.0 or later.
  • All the functionalities deprecated before YARP 2.3.72 were removed.

Build System

  • The CREATE_DEVICE_LIBRARY_MODULES option was renamed YARP_COMPILE_DEVICE_PLUGINS and is now enabled by default.
  • The CREATE_OPTIONAL_CARRIERS option was renamed YARP_COMPILE_CARRIER_PLUGINS and is now enabled by default.
  • YARP now accepts the keyboard COMPONENTS in find_package(YARP) calls. The YARP_LIBRARIES variable contains only the libraries corresponding to the components requested in the last find_package(YARP) call. If no components are specified, the OS, sig, dev and math (only when enabled) components are searched.
  • The YARP_INCLUDE_DIRS variable is deprecated, as it is handled automatically by CMake targets.
  • The YARP_MATH_LIBRARY is deprecated. You can check for YARPmath using `findpackage(YARP COMPONENTS math)`

Libraries

YARP_conf

  • The YARP_WRAP_STL_STRING and YARP_WRAP_STL_STRING_INLINE are now always undefined, and they are now considered deprecated.

YARP_OS

  • The shmem carrier is no longer builtin inside YARP_OS and it is now a plugin.
  • The Run class was moved to the new library YARP_run
  • yarp::os::setprogname() is now deprecated.
  • yarp::os::getprogname() is now deprecated.
  • yarp::os::SystemInfo::getProcessInfo() now returns info for current process when called without arguments.
  • The methods yarp::os::Mutex::tryLock() and yarp::os::RecursiveMutex::tryLock() were deprecated in favour of try_lock().
  • ConstString is now deprecated in favour of std::string.
  • Replaced YARP_INT{8,16,32,64} with std::int{8,16,32,64}_t from cstdint
  • Use defines from cinttypes instead of YARP_INT64_FMT
  • Add yarp::conf::float{32,64,128}_t (128 only if supported)
  • Add yarp::conf::ssize_t
  • Deprecate YARP_INT{8,16,32,64} in favour of std::int{8,16,32,64}_t
  • Deprecate YARP_FLOAT{32,64} in favour of yarp::conf::float{32,64}_t
  • Deprecate YARP_INT64_FMT in favour of PRId64
  • Deprecate YARP_CONF_SSIZE_T in favour of yarp::conf::ssize_t
  • Add the following methods:
    • yarp::os::Bottle::addInt{8,16,32,64}()
    • yarp::os::Bottle::addFloat{32,64}()
    • yarp::os::Value::{is,as,make}Int{8,16,32,64}()
    • yarp::os::Value::{is,as,make}Float{32,64}()

    • yarp::os::ConnectionWriter::appendFloat{32,64}()
    • yarp::os::ConnectionReader::expectInt{8,16,32,64}()
    • yarp::os::ConnectionReader::expectFloat{32,64}()

    • BOTTLE_TAG_FLOAT{32,64} (BOTTLE_TAG_FLOAT64 = BOTTLE_TAG_DOUBLE)
  • The following methods are not deprecated due to the large codebase where they are used, but their usage in new code is discouraged, and it is forbidden inside YARP. Anyway, all these methods are now calling the corresponding Int32 and Float64 version, but are not architecture safe, since they still accept int and double.
    • yarp::os::Bottle::addInt()
    • yarp::os::Bottle::addDouble()
    • yarp::os::Value::isInt()
    • yarp::os::Value::isDouble()

YARP 2.3.72 (2018-02-12) Release Notes

A (partial) list of bug fixed and issues resolved in this release can be found here.

Important Changes

  • All the functionalities deprecated in YARP 2.3.65 and previous releases were removed.
  • C++11 is required also for using YARP, not just for compiling.
  • Optional dependency on YCM now requires version 0.6.0 or later.
  • Optional dependency on RTF now requires version 1.4.0 or later.
  • Dropped YARP1 support.
  • Changed how JAVA bindings are generated
  • yarp::sig::image::getIplImage() now can return a null pointer (instead of teminating with an assert) for not valid Ipl image formats
  • yarp::sig::image::setPixelCode() now set the pixelSize accordingly (which should not be set). Since yarp::sig::image::setPixelSize() also sets an arbitrary pixel code equal to negative itself (setPixelSize(3) will set the pixelCode to -3), it should be use only for image with custom formats not covered by a yarp pixelCode.

Libraries

YARP_OS

  • Clock refactoring: clock type can be initialized in the yarp::os::Network constructor or in the Network::init() function. This will take precedence over the environment variable. yarp::os::SystemRateThread class created as RateThread clone but runs using system clock only, independently from other settings. Any call to yarp::os::Time::now() or delay() before the object yarp::os::Network is initialized will abort the program in order to avoid undefined behaviour of uninitialized Time object
  • Contactable::open(void) was deprecated. Use open("...") instead.
  • The following methods in yarp::os::RateThread are now protected instead of public:
    • virtual bool threadInit();
    • virtual void threadRelease();
    • virtual void run() = 0;
    • virtual void beforeStart();
    • virtual void afterStart(bool success);
  • The following methods in yarp::os::PortReaderBufferBase are now deprecated:
    • void setAllowReuse(bool flag = true)
    • void release(yarp::os::PortReader* completed)
  • The methods yarp::os::Bottle::operator==() and yarp::os::Bottle::operator!=() are now const.

New Features

Libraries

YARP_OS

  • Added the property yarprun to ports opened through yarprun --server.
  • Added the property nameserver for the port opened through yarpserver.
  • The method yarp::os::Network::runNameServer() was removed.
  • Added possibility to enable and disable macOS AppNap (yarp/os/Os.h).
  • Added a few missing ConstString::assign overloads.
  • Added method yarp::os::carrier::createFace(), that returns the needed face of the carrier. This method is used in carriers::listen() and carriers::connect() in order to open new connection using the correct face.
  • The YARP_WRAP_STL_STRING option value is now by default OFF on non-MSVC platforms. This means that yarp::os::ConstString is now by default a typedef to std::string on these platforms.
  • Improve how parameters are given to the chosen carrier for a connection: all parameters given both on registration and on connect command are collected and made available in the connection initialization step.
  • Added support for register a contact with an associated carrier different from tcp. If the chosen carrier provides a custom yarp::os::Face implementation this becomes the handler of incoming connections. In any case the carrier becomes the default for future connections.

YARP_dev

  • Added a new interface for visual servoing: IVisualServoing.h.
  • yarp::dev::CanBuffer now supports a const version of operator[].
  • Methods of yarp::dev::IVirtualAnalogSensor renamed in order to avoid conflicts with similar methods of yarp::dev::IAnalogSensor.
  • FrameGrabber: add a way to get cropped image via RPC. Streaming of full images can be disabled.

YARP_serversql

  • Added a new Server class for using yarp server inside an applications. Both the yarp server application and the yarpserver rtf fixture use it.

Carriers

  • New H264 carrier. It let you to read and decoding a h264 stream published by Gstreamer server.

Devices

ovrheadset

  • Added hud element setted by the configuration file and connected diretly to image ports

Map2DServer

  • Several RPC commands were added and removed.
  • Added options ROS::enable_ros_subscriber and ROS::enable_ros_publisher.

GUIs

  • New yarpviz gui imported from https://github.com/robotology/yarpviz

yarpmanager

  • Imported the iCubCluster GUI from iCub (https://github.com/robotology/icub-main/tree/master/app/iCubCluster). It is available only on Unix.
  • Added file system watcher to reload the applications when the xml has been modified externally. The automatic reload can be disabled through a dedicated checkbox in "File" menu.
  • Added yarp name list and yarp clean actions after importing profiling capabilities of yarpviz.
  • Added modifiers column in the connection list for portmonitors.
  • Added the possibility to switch broker run-time, from LocalBroker to YarpBroker and viceversa.

RTF Plugins

  • yarpserver: created a RTF Fixture manager for running yarpserver as a fixture.

Bindings

Java

  • Completely refactored JAVA Bindings (#1372) Java sources and pre-compiled classes are no more generated during the build process (PREPARE_CLASS_FILES option has been removed too). Two .jar files are instead generated and installed:
    • <install_dir>/share/yarp/java/yarp.jar: contains all the YARP Java classes.
    • <install_dir>/share/yarp/java/yarp_matlab_java.jar: contains Java utilities for MATLAB. The JNI libraries to be loaded by the JAVA application is now called libyarp_java.jnilib and it is installed in <install_dir>/lib/jni/libyarp_java.jnilib.
  • Changed package of JAVA MATLAB Utilities: from global package to yarp.matlab

Bug Fixes

Libraries

YARP_OS

  • Added unprepare method to Publisher. See BufferedPort for documentation on how to use prepare and unprepare (#1425).
  • Optimized Stamp::read() and Stamp::write() for textMode.

YARP_sig

  • Fixed pixelSize information loss in yarp::sig::FlexImage:::read().

GUIs

yarpmanager

  • Fixed the check of the status of the Computers, now it verifies that the corresponding port has been opened through yarp run. Be aware that after these changes yarpmanager will not detect machines with yarp 2.3.70 and earlier.
  • Added scan among the available carriers when you click connect and disconnect, if the specified carrier is not available a proper error message will be written on log.
  • the column carrier in the connection list has been substituted with a combobox with the available carriers.

yarpdataplayer

  • Fixed yarpdataplayer going to idle because of AppNap on macOS (#1153)

YARP 2.3.70 Release Notes

A (partial) list of bug fixed and issues resolved in this release can be found here.

Important Changes

System Configuration

  • The YARP_CONF environment variable has been deprecated for a long time (since April 2013) and it is no longer used. Since there was not a proper warning, the warning is printed now at runtime when the variable is set. See ResourceFinder::getConfigHome() documentation for informations about paths used by YARP to detect the configuration files. If you still need to use the YARP_CONF for some reason, you can use the YARP_CONFIG_HOME environment variable instead.

Build System

  • A compiler supporting C++11 is now required.
  • CMake 3.0 or newer is now required.
  • Optional dependency on YCM now requires version 0.4.0 (devel) or later.
  • Robot Testing Framework (RTF) 1.2.0 is now an optional dependency.

CMake Modules

  • YarpPlugin
    • The following commands, deprecated since YARP 2.3.21, were removed:
    • BEGIN_PLUGIN_LIBRARY
    • ADD_PLUGIN_NORMALIZED
    • PREPARE_PLUGIN
    • PREPARE_DEVICE
    • PREPARE_CARRIER
    • END_PLUGIN_LIBRARY
    • ADD_PLUGIN_LIBRARY_EXECUTABLE
    • YARP_ADD_PLUGIN_LIBRARY_EXECUTABLE
  • The YARP_HAS_NAME_LIB variable has been removed since YARP_name is always available, and is considered a private library.
  • All CMake targets now export the include directories required to build using that library. Using include_directories(${YARP_INCLUDE_DIRS}) should no longer be required.
  • YarpPlugin.cmake and YarpInstallationHelpers.cmake are now automatically included from YARPConfig.cmake, therefore all commands defined in these files are available after find_package(YARP). Including them explicitly is now considered deprecated. For the same reason, adding YARP_MODULE_PATH to the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH variable is considered deprecated. If you need some modules not available in CMake, please consider using YCM.

Libraries

  • A lot of refactoring was performed in order to improve c++11 usage and to simplify porting to other platforms without ACE

YARP_conf

  • Added the new YARP_conf header only library target. Formerly these files existed but they did not belong to any target.

YARP_OS

  • The i command is now enabled only in Debug and DebugFull builds.
  • The following commands have been marked as deprecated and will be removed in future version of YARP:
    • yarp::os::exit()
    • yarp::os::abort()
    • yarp::os::signal()
    • yarp::os::ResourceFinder::setContext(const char* contextName)

YARP_dev

  • Opening a device using a configuration of type (device (device (foo bar))) is now deprecated, use (device (foo bar)) instead.
  • Removed some old interfaces methods, deprecated since yarp 2.3.65. i.e: setPositionDirectMode(), setPositionMode(), setVelocityMode(), setOpenLoopMode(),setTorqueMode()`, etc.
  • Removed Interface IOpenLoopControl, deprecated since yarp 2.3.65.
  • Removed deprecated device ClientControlBoard and related tests.
  • Removed deprecated device ServerControlBoard and related tests.
  • Major changes to iPIDControl methods. Now they aren't bound anymore to Position Control. (#499) They accept a new parameter PidControlTypeEnum which defines the PID id on which the method will operate. For example setPid(const PidControlTypeEnum& pidtype, int j, const Pid &pid). Currently, pidtype can be one of the following types:
    • VOCAB_PIDTYPE_POSITION,
    • VOCAB_PIDTYPE_VELOCITY,
    • VOCAB_PIDTYPE_TORQUE,
    • VOCAB_PIDTYPE_CURRENT.
  • All pid-related methods from interfaces different from iPidControl have been deprecated. To provide backward-compatibility, old methods automatically call the new methods (e.g. setTorquePid(int j, const Pid &pid) calls setPid(VOCAB_PIDTYPE_TORQUE,int j,const PID &pid))
  • The following methods have been deprecated, use IControlMode2::setControlMode(int, VOCAB_CM_XXX) instead:
    • IControlMode::setPositionMode(int)
    • IControlMode::setVelocityMode(int)
    • IControlMode::setTorqueMode(int)
    • IControlMode::setImpedancePositionMode(int)
    • IControlMode::setImpedanceVelocityMode(int)
    • ...plus their IControlModeRaw counterparts

YARP_math

  • YARP_math can no longer be built using GSL. The CREATE_LIB_MATH_USING_GSL option was removed. Only Eigen is supported. FindGSL.cmake is no longer installed.

CMake Modules

  • YarpPlugin
    • Add QUIET/VERBOSE arguments and YarpPlugin_QUIET/VERBOSE variables.

yarpview

  • Added --autosize and checkbox to force yarpview to resize whenever a frame of a different size is received.
  • Implemented dragvector function on yarpview. Left-click on the image and keep left button pressed: yarpview starts to draw a line. When the left button is released, the coordinates of the initial and the final point are sent to the 'out' yarp port.

yarpmotorgui:

  • Create an instance of RobotDescriptionClient to automatically get the names of robot parts.
  • New button "idle all parts".
  • New button "execute script1/2".
  • yarpmotorgui now enforces the correct "go to home" behaviour:
    • home is asked to the robot, and, as a consequence, the "Home" button will apply the robot home position as specified by the Calibrator, see this comment in QA#108
    • added possibility to specified custom positions in the configuration file. These positions can be executed by newly introduced "Custom positions" submenus. Syntax is described in the yarpmotorgui documentation. #1160

controlboardwrapper

  • Reduced message size of of the stateExt:o port of nearly 30%.

TestFrameGrabber

  • The TestFrameGrabber was removed from libYARP_dev and it is now an optional plugin.

ovrheadset

  • Ported to the latest Oculus SDK. Compatibility with the old SDK was dropped. Supporting both the old and the new SDK is really not worth the effort. Therefore, since Linux and macOS are not supported by the latest SDK, only Windows is currently supported. If you need support on Linux or macOS you can checkout commit a05fec65e7bc67cceba5c59f26881e98590fccf7 from git history.
  • A few options (--multisample, --no-overdrive, --no-hqdistortion, and --no-timewarp) and the relative toggles were removed, since they can no longer be enabled/disabled from the SDK .
  • It can now display YARP logo in the bottom-right corner (disable with --no-logo from command line or toggle with [T] while running). This is useful to ensure that the device is working while waiting for the connection.
  • It can now display a crosshairs at the center of the scene (disable with --no-crosshairs from command line or toggle with [C] while running).
  • It can now be connected to a battery and display the status as an overlay at the top-right corner (disable with --no-battery from command line or toggle with [B] while running)

RemoteControlBoard

  • Dropped compatibility with ControlBoardWrapper2 devices that does not have the stateExt:o port. The state:o port in the wrapper is still available for encoder reading.
  • The protocol was changed and compatibility for devices using the old protocol was dropped.
  • added implementation of IPWMControl, ICurrentControl.
  • added control modes: VOCABCMCURRENT, VOCABCMPWM.
  • Added new values in the statExt : pwmDutycycle, current.
  • Removed deprecated value from statExt: PidOutput.

ServerFrameGrabber

  • ServerFrameGrabber now implements the interface yarp::dev::IRgbVisualParams for parsing rgb camera parameters.

  • Added new 'mode = size option to broadcast a simple video with variable frame size.
  • TestFrameGrabber now implements the interface yarp::dev::IRgbVisualParams for parsing rgb camera parameters.

RTF Plugins

  • The yarpmanager RTF Fixture Managers was imported from robotology/robot-testing, and allows one to start a fixture using yarpmanager. It can be enabled with the option YARP_COMPILE_RTF_ADDONS.
  • The yarpplugin RTF Fixture Managers was imported from robotology/icub-tests (Originally YarpPluginFixture), and allows one to check if a yarp plugin is available. It can be enabled with the option YARP_COMPILE_RTF_ADDONS.

Bindings

  • Add bindings for yarp/os/Log.h and yarp/os/LogStream.h. It allows the following: python import yarp logger = yarp.Log() logger.debug('See how cool this is')

YARP 2.3.68 (2016-11-28) Release Notes

A (partial) list of bug fixed and issues resolved in this release can be found here.

Important Changes

Dependencies

  • Readline library is no longer used and was replaced with the NetBSD Editline library (libedit-dev on debian/ubuntu).
  • YCM 0.2.2 is now an optional dependency.

YARP_OS

  • The yarp::os::Contact class was widely refactored:
    • The add() methods are now deprecated. The new set() methods should be used instead.
    • The by*(), invalid() and empty() factory methods are now deprecated. The class constructors should be used instead (a few new constructors were added to allow this).
    • The byConfig() method is now deprecated. fromConfig() should be used instead.
    • The Contact::toURI() method now accepts an includeCarrier parameter (true by default) to simplify the generation of the URI without the carrier. Moreover the string returned always end with a / character.
    • ROS integration was heavily improved and it is now possible to register one Publisher and one Subscriber on the same Node using the same topic, and to use tools like roswtf and rqt. If you are using YARP with ROS, upgrading is strongly recommended.
    • Added ConnectionReader::setParentConnectionReader method. This method should be used by Carriers that reimplement modifyIncomingData and that return a ConnectionReader that is not the same as the one in input.
  • PortCore now uses the "new" version of the protocol for signalling to suppress the reply. This was expected since YARP 2.1.2, but it was never applied. Both versions of the protocol are accepted in input, unless YARP_NO_DEPRECATED is enabled, in this case YARP it is not compatible with previous releases since only the new version is recognized.
  • It is now possible to get and set parameters to portmonitors directly attached to a port.

YARP_sig

  • Important: we removed methods for interoperability with the GNU Scientific Library (GSL). The reason for this was to avoid licensing problems generated by the inclusion of a structure defined by GSL. Methods for interoperability have been implemented in a new library libYARP_gsl (see below). In details:
    • We removed yarp::sig::Matrix::getGslMatrix()
    • We removed yarp::sig::Vector::getGslVector()

YARP_dev

  • New depth camera stack, device driver interface and wrapper. The old interfaces and devices will be deprecated in the next release, when all the features will be ported to the new stack.

YARP_gsl

  • This library contains methods for interoperability with the GNU Scientific Library. Notice that this library is released as GPL (and not LGPL) because it uses a structure defined by GSL.
    • Checkout yarp::gsl::GslMatrix and yarp::gsl::GslVector

YARP_math

  • libYARPmath can be compiled with GSL or Eigen (via CMake flag `CREATELIBMATHUSING_GSL`). Important: the use of GSL and this flag will be removed in the next release of YARP.
    • When compiled with GSL libYARPmath uses libYARPgsl internally. A small performance hit could affect methods that use GSL.
    • When compiled without GSL libYARP_math uses Eigen.
  • The option to link Atlas library has been broken for a while, and therefore it was removed. On debian/ubuntu it is still possible to use the atlas library by installing the libatlas-base-dev package, and use update-alternatives to configure the alternatives for libblas.so, libblas.so.3, liblapack.so, and liblapack.so.3

CMake Modules

  • All deprecated CMake modules have been removed.
  • All GTK2 CMake modules have been removed and are no longer installed in ${YARP_MODULE_PATH}. They can still be found in YCM.
  • The FindReadline module has been removed.
  • The FindAtlas module has been removed.
  • The YarpPlugin module and the relative templates received several improvements and fixes:
    • yarp_prepare_plugin no longer include any directory or namespace. As a consecuence, it might be necessary to fix the TYPE for plugins adding the full namespace to the class name, and to add the current directory to CMake include directories.
    • yarp_prepare_carrier and yarp_prepare_device are deprecated in favour of yarp_prepare_plugin.
    • The new TEMPLATE and TEMPLATE_DIR accepted by yarp_prepare_plugin can be used to specify a file name and a directory for the template that will be configured and added to the plugin. If a template is not specified, a file yarp_plugin_<CATEGORY>.cpp.in is searched in current directory, in CMake module path, and in YARP cmake modules directory. If still it cannot be found, but the PARENT_TYPE argument, containing the name of the parent class for the plugin, was specified, then a default template is generated in current binary directory. This should simplify the creation of new types of plugins. Please note that static plugins will not work with the default template.
    • The CODE and WRAPPER arguments for the yarp_prepare_plugin command are deprecated, the new EXTRA_CONFIG argument should be used instead. Each variable in the form KEY=VALUE passed to the EXTRA_CONFIG argument is changed to YARPPLUG_<KEY> and used when the template is configured. For example EXTRA_CONFIG WRAPPER=foo generates the YARPPLUG_WRAPPER variable that is then replaced in the yarp_plugin_device.cpp.in.
    • The DEFAULT argument for the yarp_prepare_plugin can be used to specify whether the plugin should be enabled by default or not (default = OFF).
    • The ADVANCED option for the yarp_prepare_plugin can be used to specify that the generated CMake variable should be marked as advanced (default = OFF).
    • The INTERNAL option for the yarp_prepare_plugin can be used to specify that the generated CMake variable should be marked as internal (and therefore not displayed in CMake gui). This also implies DEFAULT=ON unless explicitly specified.
    • The DOC argument for the yarp_prepare_plugin can be used to specify a documentation line for the generated CMake variable.
    • The OPTION argument for the yarp_prepare_plugin can be used to rename the generated CMake option.
    • The DEPENDS argument for the yarp_prepare_plugin can be used to specify a list of dependencies that should be satisfied in order to enable the plugin. If these dependencies are not available, the plugin is disabled, and the generated CMake option is not shown on CMake.
  • All CMake modules from YCM, CMake, and private are now deprecated, and are installed only if YARP_NO_DEPRECATED is OFF. Projects that require these files should depend on YCM instead.

Tools

  • yarpserver2 and yarpserver3 have been deprecated for a long time, and replaced by yarpserver, therefore they have been removed. Please update your scripts

GUIs

  • All GTK2 GUIs have a Qt5 replacement and have been deprecated since YARP 2.3.65, therefore they have been removed.
  • yarpmanager++ and yarpbuilder no longer exists, yarpmanager now includes all the builder functionality.

Devices
