Changelog for package robot_controllers_interface

0.9.3 (2022-08-21)

• Fix tf node spam (#80) Stop the tf listener from creating its own node by passing a reference to the parent node. The parallelism is untouched as tf uses a callback group for the tf topics that is spon its own executor instance. This lowers the overhead from too many nodes and reduces spam in visualizations such as the rqt node graph.

0.9.2 (2022-06-21)

• fix a bug in the older constructor (#78)
• Contributors: Michael Ferguson

0.9.1 (2022-06-20)

• move transform listener to manager (#77) each transform listener incurs an extra DDS node, which can have a significant effect in a large system. this change allows our robot driverrs to have a single shared transform listener across all controllers (and even the whole node, since the buffer can be passed in with the new constructor)
