[ros-users] [Discourse.ros.org] [Next Generation ROS] ROS2: anything equivalent to topic_tools:ShapeShifter?

A) I guess that the first step is to add to ROSIDL the equivalent of ros::message_traits::Definition< Type >::value(). Preferably expressed as JSON or XML format.

I assume the value should contain the message description in a readable format. Why should that be provided through a language specific symbol? I would suggest to provide this information through the ament resource index which would make it available across languages.
