I have an actionlib server and I would like to be able to trigger its own goal.  I don’t need any callbacks for goal accepted, feedback, or even result.  I just want to manually set the server to be active.  Is this possible?  I can’t figure out a way to do this. 

 

It might be nice if  actionlib::SimpleActionServer::acceptNewGoal() was overloaded to accept a goal parameter.  That would set the server active, but with NULL callbacks.

 

Thanks,

-Ben
