Debs
You'll need catkin and a few message packages to ensure it all compiles. Ensure you include any other msg packages you are likely to use in your android applications.
> sudo apt-get install ros-hydro-catkin ros-hydro-common-msgs
Sources
- Make sure you have a clean shell with no previous ROS environment variables set. If you don't it will confuse the following chained catkin workspaces, which are intended to help save some time when building.
> mkdir -p ~/rosjava > wstool init ~/rosjava/src https://raw.github.com/ros-java/rosjava_tools/hydro-devel/rosjava.rosinstall > source /opt/ros/hydro/setup.bash > cd ~/rosjava > catkin_make
Now the source android workspace:
> mkdir -p ~/android > wstool init ~/android/src https://raw.github.com/ros-java/rosjava_tools/hydro-devel/android_apps.rosinstall > source ~/rosjava/devel/setup.bash > cd ~/android > catkin_make
From here you can continue to compile with catkin, gradle (let's you compile specific tasks) or via imported gradle projects in android studio.
