colcon error casued by the lack of dependence tf2_eigen

description

when I colcon build ros-bridge within ROS2-humble, I faced to the following errors:

--- stderr: pcl_recorder

analysis

I found the following cmakelist settings should be wrong:

ros-bridge/pcl_recorder/CMakeLists.txt

Lines 68 to 69 in e9063d9

	ament_target_dependencies(${PROJECT_NAME}_node rclcpp sensor_msgs
	pcl_conversions tf2 tf2_ros)

there seems the lack of dependence tf2_eigen .

suggestion

I changed it as followings, and everything is ok now.

  ament_target_dependencies(${PROJECT_NAME}_node rclcpp sensor_msgs
                            pcl_conversions tf2 tf2_ros tf2_eigen)

Shall I submit a PR to fix it ?

why do I still have the problem. I am using ros jazzy, ubantu 24.04

@richie-live I'm not very sure. I think Jazzy is the latest version so it may face to many confused issues ?

I am using ROS-humble, Ubuntu 22.04.

@richie-live I solved the problem by the following:

1. rm -rf install log build
2. sudo apt install ros-humble-tf2-eigen ros-humble-tf2-ros ros-humble-tf2-geometry-msgs
3. nano ~/carla-ros-bridge/src/ros-bridge/pcl_recorder/CMakeLists.txt
   Add the following lines near the top of the file, after the find_package calls:

find_package(tf2_eigen REQUIRED)
include_directories(${tf2_eigen_INCLUDE_DIRS})

4. colcon build --symlink-install
   please use correct python, ros, carla version
   Mine is python 3.10, ROS humble (Ubuntu 22.04), Carla 0.9.15
   Hope it helps

@taeseongkr Thanks! It worked, however I have the following warning:

CMake Warning (dev) at CMakeLists.txt:64 (find_package):
  Policy CMP0074 is not set: find_package uses <PackageName>_ROOT variables.
  Run "cmake --help-policy CMP0074" for policy details.  Use the cmake_policy
  command to set the policy and suppress this warning.

  CMake variable PCL_ROOT is set to:

    /usr

  For compatibility, CMake is ignoring the variable.
This warning is for project developers.  Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.
