I am trying to replicate the functionality of this tutorial from a python node - http://www.ros.org/wiki/move_arm/Tutorials/MoveArmPoseGoal It isn't clear to me if there is a python equivalent for this function: move_arm_msgs::addGoalConstraintToMoveArmGoal(desired_pose,goalA); Am I missing something or do I need to write my own python versions for addGoalConstraintToMoveArmGoal (C+ code in move_arm_msgs/utils.h) and poseConstraintToPositionOrientationConstraints (motion_planning_msgs/convert_messages.h) to use the move_arm package from python?
