All,This is what they built: http://catkin-tools.readthedocs.org/Quick summary:- `catkin_tools` is an improved toolchain for building catkin workspaces- this toolchain is ready for beta testing, and we want your feedback- the CLI command is simply called `catkin`- the build sub-command is `catkin build`- it builds packages with isolated build directories (no CMake crosstalk)- it builds packages in parallel- it builds "pure" CMake packages that don't use Catkin macros- it lets you build selected packages in a workspace- it lets you build packages without cd'ing to the workspace root- it needs to be tested more before being recommended over `catkin_make`- the documentation for all the additional features can be found here: http://catkin-tools.readthedocs.org/Install it now (from the ROS debian repos):sudo apt-get install python-catkin-toolsOr install it now (from PIP):sudo pip install -U catkin_toolsTake a look at the cheat sheet:Give it a try and report issues or feature requests here:For some background and the relationship to the current top-level `catkin_make` command:Many thanks to Contributors:William WoodallJonathan BohrenNikolaus DemmelDave ColemanFelix RuessDirk ThomasKartik MohtaThibault KruseIan McMahonKei OkadaThose of us who've put time into this project over the last year hope that `catkin build` makes your lives less stressful and helps you build robotic systems faster.best,catkin_tools contributors
