Hey @liuzm-slam, it seems that you might have a wrong tf version locally installed. Which tf version are you using?

[zlg9folira]

@maximilianwulf Same issue here, I am issuing catkin_make separately on each package as I don't want to build the whole workspace. I get the following error message on building two packages (grid_map_demos and grid_map_rviz_plugin). I use ROS Kinetic and Ubuntu 16.04.

error: ‘class rviz::DisplayContext’ has no member named ‘getTF2BufferPtr’

I cloned the repository directly from master https://github.com/ANYbotics/grid_map.git which sounds a fit for ROS melodic. Melodic has support for getTF2BufferPtr (here) , but Kinetic doesn't (here). Is there any branch or remedy for Kinetic ?

I have solve this problem, i download a new package, the package is low version，i download 1.6? for grid map(ros kinetic, ubuntu16.04). you can give me your email address, i will give you for my package of grid_map.

[zlg9folira]

@liuzm-slam Thanks, the 1.6 worked though it is old and my question now is what will I miss in features if I rely on version 1.6 instead of 1.6.4 which has recently merged ? Does 1.6 have all the features as the new release ?

I use grid map in elevation mapping, and i dont know other features. sorry.

[maximilianwulf]

Hey all, it seems this is a kinetic related issue. As @zlg9folira mentions one can use an older version of grid map. It should contain the core features, except some recent fixes. But in my view the software is stable.

[Afiq11]

hi guys,, can i know where to get the older version?? for ros kinetic on ubuntu 16.04.

[maximilianwulf]

Hi @Afiq11 you can check out the release 1.6.

[lei0907]

I use ROS Kinetic and Ubuntu 16.04.Now i face the same issue.Could you give me the low version.thanks

[hanlinhung]

I use ROS Kinetic and Ubuntu 16.04.Now i face the same issue.Could you give me the low version.thanks

we are on master branch by default, I've tried "git checkout 1.6.2" and it worked

[zlg9folira]

@maximilianwulf, following up on this issue; versions 1.6.0 and 1.6.2 both work just fine on Kinetic. However, some useful features/examples are added to 1.6.4 including "interpolations". This version doesn't compile on Kinetic. Could anyone work around new features for Kinetic?

[maximilianwulf]

@zlg9folira if there is enough request we can start a kinetic-devel branch that is maintained by the community, would you be up for contributing to it?
