It display more or less the things visualized by rviz plus some process management functions. APIs needed are roscpp, common_msgs, tf and actionlib. The generation of messages could be done on the Linux system and then copy the cpp files to the Windows source tree, right? Would you expand your statement about creating vcprojs for roscpp to the other APIs? Regards Christian
