CHANGELOG

Changelog for package python_orocos_kdl

Entries up to and including 1.5.1 were never split per package; see the repository-wide CHANGELOG.md for that history.

Forthcoming

  • Convert from an optionally-catkin to an optionally-ament package. The package keeps <build_type>cmake</build_type> and still builds with plain cmake/make when neither ament nor colcon is installed.
  • Install PyKDL into the ROS 2 site-packages directory and register a PYTHONPATH environment hook, so import PyKDL works after sourcing the workspace. Unlike catkin, ament does not add site-packages to the PYTHONPATH by itself.
  • Add an explicit <build_type>cmake</build_type>; package format 3 otherwise defaults to catkin
  • Migrate the API documentation from rosdoc_lite to rosdoc2
  • Drop the obsolete python3-future dependency; builtins.range is part of the standard library on Python 3
  • Point the package urls at orocos.org and the GitHub repository instead of the ROS 1 wiki
  • Bump python_orocos_kdl/pybind11 (#510, #512)
  • Contributors: Matthijs van der Burgh, dependabot[bot]

1.5.3 (2025-10-17)

  • Bump minimum pybind11 version to 2.13.0 (#505)
  • Bump working version to 1.5.3 (#501)
  • Contributors: Matthijs van der Burgh

1.5.2 (2025-09-07)

  • Add a vector version of JntToCart for fk pos and vel (#497)
  • Reduce the minimum CMake version to 3.16 (#490, #489)
  • Require an exact python version match (#481)
  • Fix return type and bound name (#465)
  • Allow PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGES_INSTALL_DIR to be set externally (#461)
  • Drop python2 compatibility (#418); python3 is now the default
  • Use FindPython (#425)
  • Skip building pybind11 if it is already available on the system (#375)
  • Use a minimum pybind11 of 2.6
  • Add hash support and tests for frames and framevel, matching the C++ values
  • Sync the twist and wrench tests with the C++ ones
  • Add more argument names
  • Add unit tests for Frame initialization from Denavit-Hartenberg parameters, on both the class and an instance
  • Fix the Python bindings for the static member functions Frame::DH() and Frame::DH_Craig1989()
  • Disable the function taking a vector by reference
  • Fix a CMake warning on Windows
  • Bump python_orocos_kdl/pybind11 several times

CHANGELOG

Changelog for package python_orocos_kdl

Entries up to and including 1.5.1 were never split per package; see the repository-wide CHANGELOG.md for that history.

Forthcoming

  • Convert from an optionally-catkin to an optionally-ament package. The package keeps <build_type>cmake</build_type> and still builds with plain cmake/make when neither ament nor colcon is installed.
  • Install PyKDL into the ROS 2 site-packages directory and register a PYTHONPATH environment hook, so import PyKDL works after sourcing the workspace. Unlike catkin, ament does not add site-packages to the PYTHONPATH by itself.
  • Add an explicit <build_type>cmake</build_type>; package format 3 otherwise defaults to catkin
  • Migrate the API documentation from rosdoc_lite to rosdoc2
  • Drop the obsolete python3-future dependency; builtins.range is part of the standard library on Python 3
  • Point the package urls at orocos.org and the GitHub repository instead of the ROS 1 wiki
  • Bump python_orocos_kdl/pybind11 (#510, #512)
  • Contributors: Matthijs van der Burgh, dependabot[bot]

1.5.3 (2025-10-17)

  • Bump minimum pybind11 version to 2.13.0 (#505)
  • Bump working version to 1.5.3 (#501)

1.5.2 (2025-09-07)

CHANGELOG

Changelog for package python_orocos_kdl

Entries up to and including 1.5.1 were never split per package; see the repository-wide CHANGELOG.md for that history.

Forthcoming

  • Convert from an optionally-catkin to an optionally-ament package. The package keeps <build_type>cmake</build_type> and still builds with plain cmake/make when neither ament nor colcon is installed.
  • Install PyKDL into the ROS 2 site-packages directory and register a PYTHONPATH environment hook, so import PyKDL works after sourcing the workspace. Unlike catkin, ament does not add site-packages to the PYTHONPATH by itself.
  • Add an explicit <build_type>cmake</build_type>; package format 3 otherwise defaults to catkin
  • Migrate the API documentation from rosdoc_lite to rosdoc2
  • Drop the obsolete python3-future dependency; builtins.range is part of the standard library on Python 3
  • Point the package urls at orocos.org and the GitHub repository instead of the ROS 1 wiki
  • Bump python_orocos_kdl/pybind11 (#510, #512)
  • Contributors: Matthijs van der Burgh, dependabot[bot]

1.5.3 (2025-10-17)

  • Bump minimum pybind11 version to 2.13.0 (#505)
  • Bump working version to 1.5.3 (#501)
  • Contributors: Matthijs van der Burgh

1.5.2 (2025-09-07)

  • Add a vector version of JntToCart for fk pos and vel (#497)
  • Reduce the minimum CMake version to 3.16 (#490, #489)
  • Require an exact python version match (#481)
  • Fix return type and bound name (#465)
  • Allow PYTHON_SITE_PACKAGES_INSTALL_DIR to be set externally (#461)
  • Drop python2 compatibility (#418); python3 is now the default
  • Use FindPython (#425)
  • Skip building pybind11 if it is already available on the system (#375)
  • Use a minimum pybind11 of 2.6
  • Add hash support and tests for frames and framevel, matching the C++ values
  • Sync the twist and wrench tests with the C++ ones
  • Add more argument names
  • Add unit tests for Frame initialization from Denavit-Hartenberg parameters, on both the class and an instance
  • Fix the Python bindings for the static member functions Frame::DH() and Frame::DH_Craig1989()
  • Disable the function taking a vector by reference
  • Fix a CMake warning on Windows
  • Bump python_orocos_kdl/pybind11 several times
  • Contributors: DasRoteSkelett, Jacob Perron, Johannes Meyer, Matthijs van der Burgh, dependabot[bot]
