Deploying a rosnode in real-time

Hi,

I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but I want to deploy a rosnode in real-time and read that using roscore in combination with a real-time (Xenomai) linux kernel is a bad idea. Is this true? And if so, why ?

Thanks.

It's the right place if you also use Orocos. Else you can go to :
http://answers.ros.org/questions/

Generally, ROS has not been designed to be real time. Putting a Xenomai in
won't help much. But you may refine your statement. It depends on what and
how you use ros. For instance it's sure that the ROS communication layer is
not realtime.

If ROS is a simple command interface with no deadlines involved, you will
surely be able to design Orocos components interfaces but the
rtt_ros_bridge.
