> Maybe you can elaborate what exactly you are trying to achieve
when I use `cv_bridge` in ros2 , the img_msg is turned into `list` in python , but the `cv_bridge` needs a `byte` type when transform the `img_msg.data` into `cv2` img type .
(the `img_msg.data` is `uint8 []` and is turned into `list` after transform)
So we rewrite the `genorator_py` in `rosidl` to make the uint8 turn into `byte` type , and it works well
but to avoid effecting other algorithm which using uint8 as well in pyhton , we want to create a `new_uint8[]` for a new msg type like `new_imagemsg` so that we don't need to transform all `uint8[]` to bytes , but only in some special situations (like using cv_bridge) , we can use the new message type and get the byte type instead of list . and other algorithm can still receive the `image_msg.data` as `list` type
So i just want to know whether this idea can work , and how to make it .
I'm trying to rewrite the python-end in rosidl and build a new primitive type maybe use dtype() ? and a new msg_type and try to analyze the type
