Re: [ros-users] robot_monitor, highlight keyvalue?

Ugo,
in the DiagnosticStatus message there is a string "message" field. In that
field we state fault modes in which the component is in. Although this
doesn't tell you which fields are out of range, it provides a way to
communicate what's wrong with the component. Our technique is for each
fault to append to the string so that if there are two errors, you will get
"ERROR1: helpful text 1, ERROR2: helpful info 2" as the "message" field for
the status.
