When ROS_HOSTNAME is not set, you get an error printed in the shell.

[error] Rqt Remocon: 'ROS_HOSTNAME' 
[debug] Interactive Client : initialised
[debug] Interactive Client : Connection Details
  1. The gui doesn't abort
  2. This is not actually an error if you are connecting over localhost

To fix:

Just move it to a warning. Would be nice if the gui had some way of showing what the ROS_HOSTNAME/ROS_IP settings are.

  • I will change the error into warning if user does not set ROS_HOSTNAME. In this case rqt remocon use localhost as ROS_HOSTNAME
  • I think that it is good way to use widget object name to show ROS_HOSTNAME/ROS IP. For example,
Role Chooser - ROS IP [http://localhost:11311  / ROS HOST NAME [localhost]

I think you mean:

Role Chooser - ROS_MASTER_URI [http://localhost:11311]  / ROS_HOST NAME [localhost]
