[Java-player-users] Problems using Position and Simulation interfaces

[Kenneth M. <km...@at...>]

I'm using Javaclient 1.6.4 (Player 1.6.4, simulating bot in stage) and
having some problems getting either odometry data or the simulation 2d =
pose
back.=20

When trying to get odom data (readData then getX, getY on the position
interface) I keep getting garbage values (values jump all over the =
place)
without even moving my 'bot from its start position.=20
=20
When I try to use the simulation interface to get back a 2dPose and look =
at
the 'bot's co-ords that way, it just sits there waiting for a response =
(did
a get2DPose, kept waiting on isPose2DReady).=20
=20
At one point, I managed to get the simulation interface to connect to =
stage
(somehow; still not sure how) and got an error like "warning: No =
permissions
to configure device lf:0"....?   I read somewhere in the P/S mailing =
list
that that error could be due to an old version of Player or Stage, but =
I'm
using the latest release...
=20
Could someone please post a clear, working code example of how to do =
either
or both of these things (retrieve odometry data and retrive a simulation =
2d
pose)?=20

Thank you
