They were not in (the types subdir of) your component path.

If you type at the TB: path("/path/to/ocl-install/lib/orocos") does it find
them?

RTT looks for types in RTT's install path. OCL looks for types in OCL's
install path, so even if OCL and RTT are in different places, it should work.

In principle it is, except when you're in a ros package tree. I was thinking
of having one especially for ROS+Orocos, which wouldn't have the 'make
install' part, but just a make or rosmake. If someone could help with that...

I had more space left in the Orocos sheet :-)

Orogen's has been posted by Sylvain before.

There seems to be an issue with the PDF exporter of inkscape. I'll see if I
can fix it.
