    Josh,<br>
    <br>
    I found out what the problem is. But I do not have a solution to it
    right now.<br>
    <br>
    #include <ros/ros.h><br>
    #include <QtGui><br>
    <br>
    int main(int argc, char** argv)<br>
    {<br>
        QApplication app( argc, argv, false );<br>
    <br>
        ros::init(argc, argv, "params_test");<br>
    <br>
        ros::NodeHandle n;<br>
    <br>
        double a = 1.5;<br>
        n.setParam( "a", a );<br>
    <br>
        double a_get;<br>
        n.getParam( "a", a_get );<br>
    <br>
        ROS_INFO_STREAM( "a=" << a << "  a_get=" <<
    a_get );<br>
    <br>
        return 0;<br>
    }<br>
    <br>
    Gives me<br>
    [ INFO] [1288340780.906072159]: a=1.5  a_get=1<br>
    <br>
    Without QApplication it gives me<br>
    [ INFO] [1288340754.462816012]: a=1.5  a_get=1.5<br>
    <br>
    So the problem is QApplication. I am using Ubuntu 9.04 with QT
    4.5.0. I will now upgrade to Qt 4.6 hoping that this changes
    something.<br>
    <br>
    Regards<br>

            <br>
            in /opt/ros/cturtle/ros/core/roscpp/src/libros/param.cpp<br>
            I printed the XmlRpcValue and this gives me<br>
            <br>
            <value><double>0</double></value><br>
            <value><double>1</double></value><br>
            <br>
            Whats going wrong? Any ideas?<br>
            <br>
            rosparam get key<br>
            returns 0.200000000000000001 or 1.5<br>
            <br>
            so the values in the parameter server are correct.<br>
