I saw that this was moved, but I believe I am running into an issue that is independent of the ParameterService starting by default. I haven't seen an example of doing ros params not involving the "manual_composition" yet. All the tutorials for parameters still appear to use clients/services. Looking over the comments for the register_param_change_callback, it appears that the callback should be doing set_parameters_atomically, unless I am misreading that. This is what I have: auto node = rclcpp::node::Node::make_shared(path_control_auditor::NODE_NAME); auto paramServer = make_shared(node); node->set_parameters({ rcllcpp::parameter::ParameterVariant("someVar", ""), }); node->register_param_change_callback( [node](const std::vector params) { for (auto param : params) { std::cout << "Parameter name: " << param.get_name() << std::endl; std::cout << "Parameter value (" << param.get_type_name() << "): " << param.value_to_string() << std::endl; } rcl_interfaces::msg::SetParametersResult result; result = node->set_parameters_atomically(params); return result; } ); Then when I use ros2params to set the parameter. Callback occurs, but as soon as "set_paremeters_atomically" occurs, I get memory violations. If I fail to call that I see no problems. So am I reading the comments correctly? Should I be calling "set_parameters_atomically" FYI, I am using Alpha 8 on Windows.
