Subject: [ros-users] [Discourse.ros.org] [Next Generation ROS] Discussion about how to add a new PRIMITIVE_TYPES to rosidl(msg)


> Blockquote[quote="Zongpei_Jiang, post:6, topic:4607"]

I agree with that . Just map all the `uint8[]` to `bytes[]` instead of `list[]` may cause other problems since some algorithms are designed using the `msg.data` as `list` in python .

I still think that using `bytes` rather than `list[byte]` would be a good move (at least from IDL `byte[]` types, if not for `uint8[]` types). Yes, it would be a breaking change, but it would be a _good_ breaking change and most dependent code would be very easy to update (and likely get a nice speed boost).
