[quote="Selvakumar_Ganesan, post:17, topic:6254"] Im trying to understand ros actionlib and finding a way to implement fire and forget methods. I cannot use rosservices for this as its a blocking call. can you enlighten me with your view on whether rosaction shall be used to implement fire and forget mechanism using SimpleActionClient and SimpleActionServer? [/quote] You might want to ask your question on answers.ros.org instead. This thread is about actions in ROS 2. And both - action as well as service - in ROS 2 are providing an asynchronous API which means they are *not* blocking. --- [Visit Topic](https://discourse.ros.org/t/actions-in-ros-2/6254/19) or reply to this email to respond.
