## Details

This is an example package for demonstrating how to use the Qt Framework with the Robot Operating System.
The implemented applicaion is the equivalent "listener" from the ROS Tutorial [Writing a Simple Publisher and Subscriber (C++)](http://www.ros.org/wiki/ROS/Tutorials/WritingPublisherSubscriber%28c%2B%2B%29) written in Qt.

## Installation

Assuming you are working with rosws and have a workspace overlay setup in your user directory ~/fuerte_workspace, you can just checkout the git repository with:

git clone https://github.com/seim/beginner_qt.git

Now you introduce the new directory to your ROS framework by executing:

rosws set ~/fuerte_workspace/beginner_qt

After that you should be able to build the package (of course you need to install the Qt toolchain if you haven't yet):

rosmake beginner_qt

And execute the application with:

rosrun beginner_qt listener
