I'm moving some generic files out of the oroGen templates, into a small
C++ library that is embedded in oroGen and built by rake.
Obviously, that will have an effect to people using rosbuild, as the
library is getting installed by default.
This will affect the typelib and MQ transports.
Is there someone interested to make it work on rosbuild ? Are there
pitfalls I should avoid to make it easier for this(these) person(s) ?
upcoming changes to orogen that will impact ROS people

What changed in (generated) mq that it depends on that change ? And
why doesn't it
influence the CORBA transport ?

The advised workflow is to use autoproj/bootstrap to build orogen
related software,
even in ROS environments. I am using autoproj while my ROS_ROOT is being
set, and I using typegen in a ROS environment (we need to source
env.sh of course)
I didn't try a 'rosbuild orogen' yet, I suppose it results in a nop.
So if it is not fundamentally different from how orogen is built
today, the change
won't affect us, I suppose.

It affects MQ because the oroGen-generated MQ will not use the boost
marshalling anymore, but use typelib to do the marshalling. Much simpler
and supporting orogen's opaque types in a very straightforward way. It
does not affect CORBA as CORBA does not use typelib at all.

OK. Wait and see, then.
