Added PointCloud1 support

Open vandanamandlik opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

Copied PointCloud1 related functionalities from indigo branch and ported it to ros2, for laser_assembler package. As per comment of jonbinney on laser_assembler package as follows "It would be good to keep support for both. It looks like ROS2 still has a PointCloud message: https://github.com/ros2/common_interfaces/tree/master/sensor_msgs/msg

The PointCloud message is simpler to use for people who aren't using PCL, since the PointCloud2 is a big binary blob that you have to manually parse."

Could you please review the code and give your feedback ?

Thank you for the PR!

Since the PointCloud message is deprecated, I'm going to close this one for now.
