• Contributors: C-NR, James Xu, Maarten de Vries, Martin Günther, Shane Loretz, Victor Lamoine, Yoshua Nava

1.12.0 (2018-05-02)

• Adapt to new xmlrpcpp header location (#164)

• Maintain & expose tf2 Buffer in shared_ptr for tf (#163) - Adds a tf2_ros::Buffer via a public accessor method to expose to customers of Transformer - Maintains the tf2_ros::Buffer in a shared_ptr to safely share access to the Buffer object - As this is targeting Melodic, adds c++11 compile flags to grant access to std::shared_ptr's - Reorders the include_directories in the CMakeLists to ensure the headers exposed in this package are read before the system installed catkin_INCLUDE_DIRS (otherwise changes to tf source headers are never detected during a catkin_make on a system with ros-*-geometry installed)

• Prevent rates that result in core dump (0.0) or no limit on update rate at all (<0.0) #159 (#160)
• Fix empty yaml parsing (#153) Fixes #152 The empty yaml was coming through as a list not a dict so was breaking the expectations. I used the shorthand [or {}]{.title-ref} since I know any valid data won't evaluate to zero. A more complete solution is described here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/35777649/604099

• Fix const correctness of tf::Vector3 rotate() method The method does not modify the class thus should be const. This has already been fixed in Bullet itself.
• add automatic tf buffer cleaning on bag loop for python This logic was already implemented for c++ but not for the python module.
