rosbuild_make_distribution(1.2.2)

felix@cturtle:/opt/ros/cturtle/stacks/common$ grep isServerConnected /opt/ros/cturtle/stacks/common/actionlib/include/actionlib/client/simple_action_client.h
felix@cturtle:/opt/ros/cturtle/stacks/common$ 


Compiling I get this:

pr2-action.cc:234: error: ‘class actionlib::SimpleActionClient<learning_actionlib::FibonacciAction_<std::allocator<void> > >’ has no member named ‘isServerConnected’

I can find isServerConnected in connection_monitor.h, but not in simple_action_client.h

felix@cturtle:/opt/ros/cturtle/stacks/common$ grep isServerConnected /opt/ros/cturtle/stacks/common/actionlib/include/actionlib/client/*.h
/opt/ros/cturtle/stacks/common/actionlib/include/actionlib/client/connection_monitor.h:  bool isServerConnected();
felix@cturtle:/opt/ros/cturtle/stacks/common$

OK, I will use isServerConnected... as soon as I can find it ;-)
