Subject: [ros-users] [Discourse.ros.org] [Next Generation ROS] Questions on ament, ament.py, ament_cmake and dependency resolvers


[quote="jcadam, post:1, topic:4065, full:true"]
- It is supposed that 'ament' performs like 'catkin' with which dependencies could be resolved by declaring in 'package.xml'. However, it seems that 'ament' cannot do this job.
[/quote]

just responding to the above bit: Catkin does not resolve dependencies using the package manifest. That would be `rosdep`'s job.

This is also the reason why you have to declare dependencies *twice*: once in your manifest, and once in the `find_package(catkin .. COMPONENTS ..)` call in your build script.
