px4 / px4ros Goto Github PK

I'm working through the instructions for the first time and these repos are missing.
https://github.com/PX4/mav_comm
https://github.com/PX4/euroc_simulator

I want to automate px4 build with catkin make but it wasn't possible with the methods i know.

• catkin_make
• catkin_make_isolated
• catkin_make_isolated --use-ninja

didn't worked. This is the best solution I came up with but it enters an infinite loop while building px4 firmware:

• catkin_make_isolated -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/usr/bin/g++ -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/usr/bin/gcc -DCMAKE_ASM_COMPILER=/usr/bin/gcc -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release.

steps to repreduce:

• git clone https://github.com/px4/px4ros.git, path: ~/ros_ws/src
• cd px4ros && git submodule update --init --recursive, path : ~/ros_ws/src/px4ros
• catkin_make_isolated -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER=/usr/bin/g++ -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER=/usr/bin/gcc -DCMAKE_ASM_COMPILER=/usr/bin/gcc -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release

1. Is there any way for me to compile all packages with catkin_make, or should i use make posix... commands?
2. If there is a way, will i be able to specify build targets for Firmware from catkin_make?
3. Is there any information in the documentations for the work flow of Makefiles?
4. Lastly, is this the appropriate place the put such questions?
