using reset to change the robot base frame

[SantoshiK-skulk]

I get an error while following this instruction from README for visual tools:
In your class' constructor add: visual_tools_.reset(new rviz_visual_tools::RvizVisualTools("base_frame","/rviz_visual_markers"));
Change the first parameter to the name of your robot's base frame

After looking into the ros_param.yaml file line: robot_base_frame: base_link ;
I changed base_frame to base_link

I get an error in CMakeFiles:
CMakeFiles/listener.dir/src/listener.cpp.o: In function main': listener.cpp:(.text+0x16fe): undefined reference torviz_visual_tools::RvizVisualTools::RvizVisualTools(std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char="">, std::allocator >, std::__cxx11::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char="">, std::allocator >, ros::NodeHandle)' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

Hi @SantoshiK-skulk,

Do you mind sharing more info .? are you building rvt from source or are you using Debians ? which ros version are you using .?

The error you're having is a linking error which means you're including a header file but not linking the shared library against your executable, do you mind sharing your CMakeLists file .?

Hello @JafarAbdi
I am using ros melodic.
I am fairly new to ROS. I am not sure I understand the difference between using src or Debian to build it.
But I am pretty sure I have not used Debian in any of my commands.

What's the content of your CMakeLists.txt file .?
