sdformat - Simulation Description Format (SDF) parser ----------------------------------------------------- SDF is an XML file format that describes environments, objects, and robots in a manner suitable for robotic applications. SDF is capable of representing and describing different physic engines, lighting properties, terrain, static or dynamic objects, and articulated robots with various sensors, and acutators. The format of SDF is also described by XML, which facilitates updates and allows conversion from previous versions. A parser is also contained within this package that reads SDF files and returns a C++ interface. http://sdformat.org Installation ------------ Standard installation can be performed in UNIX systems using the following steps: - mkdir build/ - cd build/ - cmake .. - sudo make install sdformat supported cmake parameters at configuring time: - USE_EXTERNAL_URDF (bool) [default False] Do not use the internal copy of urdfdom and use the one installed in the system instead.
