Catkin tutorials: http://wiki.ros.org/catkin/Tutorials
程序在cmake编译是这样的流程, cmake指令依据你的CMakeLists.txt 文件,生成makefiles文件,make再依据此makefiles文件编译链接生成可执行文件. catkin_make是将cmake与make的编译方式做了一个封装的指令工具, 规范了工作路径与生成文件路径.
# 在一个CMake项目里 $ mkdir build $ cd build $ cmake .. $ make $ make install # (可选)
# In a catkin workspace $ catkin_make $ catkin_make install # (可选) 如果源码不在默认工作空间,需要指定编译路径: # In a catkin workspace $ catkin_make --source my_src $ catkin_make install --source my_src # (optionally)

1).catkin_make默认的路径信息
在catkin_make运行后终端输出文件部分解析 #基本路径 Base path: /home/user/catkin_ws Source space: /home/user/catkin_ws/src Build space: /home/user/catkin_ws/build Devel space: /home/user/catkin_ws/devel Install space: /home/user/catkin_ws/install #catkin_make 封装运行中cmake运行的情况 Running command: "cmake /home/user/catkin_ws/src -DCATKIN_DEVEL_PREFIX=/home/user/catkin_ws/devel -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/user/catkin_ws/install" in "/home/user/catkin_ws/build" #编译工具查找 -- Using CATKIN_DEVEL_PREFIX: /tmp/catkin_ws/devel -- Using CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH: /opt/ros/groovy -- This workspace overlays: /opt/ros/groovy #编译的包 <pre name="code" class="cpp">#catkin_make 封装运行中make运行的情况

说明
工作空间 源空间 编译空间 开发空间 安装空间 -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/any/directorycmake默认是/usr/local 系统安装空间 /opt/ros/ROSDISTRO 结果空间 source RESULT-SPACE/setup.sh 类似扫描安装空间与开发空间,替换系统通用下的对应文件.
3).Overlays
catkin支持包的逐层覆盖, 当前最高,其它依据source的顺序逐层变高, 高层可覆盖低层.
Example 4: Overlaying workspace 3 on top of local workspace2 install space on top of workspace1 devel space on top of system install cd ~/workspace2/build cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/ws2_installed ../src make make install source ~/ws2_installed/setup.bash cd ~/workspace3/build cmake ../src make
ros 环境变量设置 可以参考 .bashrc文件： ros工作环境设置
###### slam_ws source /opt/ros/indigo/setup.bash source /home/yhzhao/slam_ws/devel/setup.bash export ROS_PACKAGE_PATH=~/slam_ws/src:$ROS_PACKAGE_PATH export ROS_WORKSPACE=~/slam_ws/src
catkin was designed to allow rosbuild packages to sit on top of catkin ones. This is accomplished by using overlays.
~/rosbuild_ws/
dry_pkg1/
...
dry_pkgN/
setup.bash
setup.sh
~/catkin_ws/
src/
wet_pkg1/
...
wet_pkgN/
build/
devel/
setup.bash
setup.sh
install/
setup.bash
setup.sh
注: 我们在系统文件夹下的 .bashrc 中加入相应的source文件, 就是为了添加ros 的环境变量等信息.
Differences in CMakeLists.txt for rosbuild and catkin
catkin_make -DCATKIN_WHITELIST_PACKAGES="package1;package2"
恢复编译所有的包
catkin_make -DCATKIN_WHITELIST_PACKAGES=""
4.1 package. xml
每个包的描述文件,都需要放置在包的根目录下,对包的名字/版本/作者/维护者/依赖关系进行说明.与rosbuild中的manifest.xml相似. 依赖不正确在本地可以可以编译通过,但不能在ROS社区正确工作起来.

C++ catkin library dependencies: http://docs.ros.org/jade/api/catkin/html/howto/format2/catkin_library_dependencies.html
6种依赖标签
1. Build Dependencies 指出你的包编译需要依赖的包
2. Build Export Dependencies 指出你的包编译导出库
specify which packages are needed to build libraries against this package. This is the case when you transitively include their headers in
public headers in this package (especially when these packages are declared as (CATKIN_)DEPENDS in catkin_package() in CMake).
3. Execution Dependencies 执行时依赖
4. Test Dependencies 单元测试
5. Build Tool Dependencies 编译系统工具
6. Documentation Tool Dependencies doc生成工具
<depend> specifies that a dependency is a build, export, and execution dependency. This is the most commonly used dependency tag. <buildtool_depend> <build_depend> <build_export_depend> <exec_depend> <test_depend> <doc_depend>http://write.blog.csdn.net/postedit/50388429
<export> <metapackage /> </export>
仅需要标签: <buildtool_depends> 依赖 catkin 和 <run_depend>,对应cmakelists.txt中
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.3) project(<PACKAGE_NAME>) find_package(catkin REQUIRED) catkin_metapackage()
通用版本的package.xml
<package>
<name>universal_robot</name>
<version>1.1.5</version>
<description>
Drivers, description, and utilities for Universal Robot Arms.

CMakeLists.txt
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.3) project(universal_robot) find_package(catkin REQUIRED) catkin_metapackage()
4.2 CMakeLists.txt
cmak 不会找package.xml文件, 但catkin需要. 依据cmakelists.txt文件编译需要清晰指出头文件和库文件的指向.
Finding the library: 需要在package.xml中使用标签<depend> 或者<build_depend>
find_package(catkin REQUIRED COMPONENTS roscpp)
Include directories
include_directories(include ${catkin_INCLUDE_DIRS})
Exporting interfaces: 需要在package.xml中使用<depend> 或者<build_export_depend>,catkin_package() 命令仅调用一次,它需要额外的参数依赖于你的包导出的依赖.
catkin_package(CATKIN_DEPENDS angles roscpp std_msgs)
Finding the library
find_package(Boost REQUIRED)
但boost thread 运行时需要库,必须指出组件thread .
find_package(Boost REQUIRED COMPONENTS thread)
find_package()之后就可以用此编译和连接了. 命名规则基本是这样: ${name}_INCLUDE_DIRS and${name}_LIBRARIES .
find_package(PkgConfig REQUIRED) pkg_check_modules(GSTREAMER REQUIRED libgstreamer-0.10)
pkg_check_modules() 参数声明了一个cmake前缀,GSTREAMER_INCLUDE_DIRS 和GSTREAMER_LIBRARIES,用于命令行中插入正确的编译选项. (.pc文件 ) libgstreamer-0.10.pc.
Include directories
include_directories(include ${Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS} ${GSTREAMER_INCLUDE_DIRS})
如有依赖catkin 包 ,再添加 ${catkin_INCLUDE_DIRS}
Exporting interfaces
catkin_package(DEPENDS Boost GSTREAMER)
确保所有的包在package.xml被用到, <build_export_depend> 和<depend>标签, 标准命名 ${name}_INCLUDE_DIRS and${name}_LIBRARIES . catkin包一般是小写,大写(asGSTREAMER) 或混合 (likeBoost)
include_directories(include
${catkin_INCLUDE_DIRS}
${Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS}
${GSTREAMER_INCLUDE_DIRS})
生成库
add_library(libName libsrc1.cpp libsrc2.cpp libsrc_etc.cpp)
或者
set(YOUR_LIB_SOURCES
libsrc1.cpp
libsrc2.cpp
libsrc3.cpp
libsrc4.cpp
libsrc_etc.cpp)
add_library(your_library ${YOUR_LIB_SOURCES})
target_link_libraries(libName${catkin_LIBRARIES})
链接库
target_link_libraries(libName
${catkin_LIBRARIES}
${Boost_LIBRARIES}
${GSTREAMER_LIBRARIES})
catkin_package(CATKIN_DEPENDS std_msgs
DEPENDS Boost
INCLUDE_DIRS include
LIBRARIES your_library)
<depend>std_msgs</depend>
<build_export_depend>boost</build_export_depend>

ros下的安装,使得rosrun 与roslaunch能够使用.需要下面的方式安装.
install(TARGETS your_node
RUNTIME DESTINATION ${CATKIN_PACKAGE_BIN_DESTINATION})
安装 cmake文件
catkin_package(CFG_EXTRAS your_macros.cmake your_modules.cmake)
install(FILES cmake/your_macros.cmake cmake/your_modules.cmake
DESTINATION ${CATKIN_PACKAGE_SHARE_DESTINATION}/cmake)
install(DIRECTORY cmake
DESTINATION ${CATKIN_PACKAGE_SHARE_DESTINATION}
PATTERN ".svn" EXCLUDE)
