Stop using ament_target_dependencies. (#86) We are slowly moving away from its use, so stop using it here. While we are in here, notice some things that makes this easier: 1. pluginlib is absolutely a public dependency of this package. Because of that, we can just rely on the PUBLIC export of it, and we don't need to link it into every test. But that also means we don't need some of the forward-declarations that were in loader_fwds.hpp, as we can just get those through the header file. 2. republish.hpp doesn't really need to exist at all. That's because it is only a header file, but the implementation is in an executable. Thus, no downstream could ever use it. So just remove the file and put the declaration straight into the cpp file.

point_cloud_transport
Description
point_cloud_transport is a ROS package for subscribing to and publishing PointCloud2 messages via different transport layers. E.g. it can provide support for transporting point clouds in low-bandwidth environment using Draco compression library.
point_cloud_transport is released as C++ source code and binary packages via ROS buildfarm.
Usage
point_cloud_transport can be used to publish and subscribe to PointCloud2 messages. At this level of usage, it is similar to using ROS Publishers and Subscribers. Using point_cloud_transport instead of the ROS primitives, however, gives the user much greater flexibility in how point clouds are communicated between nodes.
For complete examples of publishing and subscribing to point clouds using point_cloud_transport , see Tutorial.
C++
Communicating PointCloud2 messages using point_cloud_transport:
#include <ros/ros.h>
#include <point_cloud_transport/point_cloud_transport.h>
void Callback(const sensor_msgs::PointCloud2ConstPtr& msg)
{
// ... process the message
}
ros::NodeHandle nh;
point_cloud_transport::PointCloudTransport pct(nh);
point_cloud_transport::Subscriber sub = pct.subscribe("in_point_cloud_base_topic", 1, Callback);
point_cloud_transport::Publisher pub = pct.advertise("out_point_cloud_base_topic", 1);
Republish node(let)
Similar to image_transport, this package provides a node(let) called republish that can convert between different transports. It can be used in a launch file in the following way:
<node name="republish" pkg="point_cloud_transport" type="republish" args="draco raw in:=input_topic out:=output_topic" />
Known transports
- draco_point_cloud_transport: Lossy compression via Google Draco library.

Republish node(let)
Similar to image_transport, this package provides a node(let) called republish that can convert between different transports. It can be used in a launch file in the following way:
<node name="republish" pkg="point_cloud_transport" type="republish" args="draco raw in:=input_topic out:=output_topic" />
Known transports
- draco_point_cloud_transport: Lossy compression via Google Draco library.
