ur_description
ros2_control xacro tag moved to driver package
The description package no longer adds the ros2_control
tag to the robot’s URDF. This is done
in the driver / simulation repos now. The description package still provides macros for the
system-independent parts such as joint configurations and an example using mock_hardware with the
robot.
Enforce absolute paths in launchfiles
The view_ur.launch.py
launchfile now expects an absolute path for the description file and RViz
config file. Before it was expecting a description_package
and a description_file
argument
with a relative path to the package.
This way, users can provide their own description file and / or RViz config without the need to
replicate the complete package structure.
Absolute paths can still be generated dynamically using a package + relative path structure inside
other launchfiles or by using ros2 pkg prefix
on the command line.
