Yeah I bought a Kinect to add to it and it’s now running on a Acer Aspire One notebook running ROS. I had some issues with the Kinect pulling too much power from my DC-DC Converter (my 1980s bot runs from 6v lead acid battery and the Kinect needs a 12v supply as well as the USB).

I’ve not had him running since November. I’ll try to go back through my work and document a bit more.

Hi there. Have you made any further progress on your ROS robot project? I know how life tends to get in the way of interesting projects like this one.

We have a turtlebot_simulator stack that allows you to control a virtual TurtleBot if you want to play with a robot but not buy one

I am lucky I did because now Ive obtained a whole new view of this. Your weblog is definitely worth a read if anybody comes throughout it.

Comment on CodeSniffer Part 3: Writing an example CodeSniffer Standard by Bob

Hmmm, that’s interesting.

What version of CodeSniffer are you running, I’ll give it a try as well. If I get the same it may well be a bug.
In which case I’ll raise a bug against it.

Really nice. I try this for myself and run into a problem. I include PEAR and the KernighanRitchie Sniff – similar to your explanation. Further I excluded the BSDAllmanSniff. So, I should have the PEAR Standard with changed braces-coding convention.

But I get the error, that the braces should be on a new line, so the ExcludedSniffs seems not to be noted by the codesniffer.

Is there some trick, I didn’t got?

regards

Thanks heaps. The best way around it does appear to be implementing *nix file endings.

Cheers

Hi Paul,

Yeah, normally it’s caused because you’re editing on windows and the line endings are therefore incorrect.

In Eclipse, which I use, you can configure the default for the workspace to be unix line endings. I would imagine that pretty much all IDEs should have a way to convert line endings.

Alternatively use a tool like flip or linebreak on the Mac or sed/awk etc on *nix. There’s probably loads of tools for that, but hopefully your IDE should do it for you.

If however your standard is for windows line endings, alter the rules accordingly to expect \r\n rather than \n

Thanks for this … great tutorial.

BTW have you found a way to remove this error:

End of line character is invalid; expected “\n” but found “\r\n”

Cheers,
Paul
