[ros-users] combining OpenGL loops with ROS spin()

[Bersch Christian (CR/RTC1.1-NA)]

If you use glut, you can also call

glutPostRedisplay();
glutMainLoopEvent();

in your callback function and use ros::spin();

See camera_robot_self filter in our repository for an example.

Best,
Chris

I don't have a complete example, but you should be able to simply drop ros::spinOnce() in your main loop. See the spinning section<http://www.ros.org/wiki/roscpp/Overview/Callbacks%20and%20Spinning> of the roscpp overview.

Cheers,
Patrick

I have ROS callback routines on messages and I want to send a
generated OpenGL image back in each of those callback routines.

Greetings,
