ros2_control xacro tag moved to driver package
5+
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
6+
7+
The description package no longer adds the ``ros2_control`` tag to the robot's URDF. This is done
8+
in the driver / simulation repos now. The description package still provides macros for the
9+
system-independent parts such as joint configurations and an example using mock_hardware with the
10+
robot.
11+
12+
Enforce absolute paths in launchfiles
13+
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
14+
15+
The ``view_ur.launch.py`` launchfile now expects an absolute path for the description file and RViz
16+
config file. Before it was expecting a ``description_package`` and a ``description_file`` argument
17+
with a relative path to the package.
18+
This way, users can provide their own description file and / or RViz config without the need to
19+
replicate the complete package structure.
20+
21+
Absolute paths can still be generated dynamically using a package + relative path structure inside
22+
other launchfiles or by using ``ros2 pkg prefix`` on the command line.
