  • Removed library libYARP_wire_rep_utils.
  • Removed extern/md5
  • Removed extern/ros messages and examples.
  • The syntax yarpdev --device xxx --subdevice yyy has been deprecated. See discussion: #3078

Fixes

  • Configuration files installed by the yarp_configure_plugins_installation CMake macro are now relocatable (#2445, ).
  • Improved ffmpeg port monitor to allow using different couples of coders/decodes
  • yarpbatterygui now compatible with battery_nwc_yarp.
  • Fixed compilation of portmonitor carrier when a custom non-system swig is used
  • Fixed compatibility with ffmpeg 7 (#3109).
  • Fixed compilation with graphviz 10 (#3115).
  • Fix sending empty yarp::sig::Vector when building in Debug (#3123).

New Features

  • Added new command line tool yarpDeviceParamParserGenerator. See official yarp documentation (cmd_yarpDeviceParamParserGenerator.dox)

Docker

  • Added two parameters to yarp Dockerfile:
    • base_img to allow starting from different parent images
    • yarp_branch to set the yarp version the users might need in their image

Carriers

  • Removed h264 Carrier
  • Added gstreamer carrier with extended functionalities.
  • Added new gstreamers plugins: yarpvideosource, yarpvidepassthrough, yarpvideosink
  • Fixed segfault on disconnection with shmem carrier.

Devices

  • Most yarp devices now use yarpDeviceParamParserGenerator to generate parameters documentation.

controlboardremapper

  • Aligned to controlBoard_nws_yarp in terms of required interfaces. See #3095.

deviceBundler

  • Added new device deviceBundler which can be useful to open two devices and attach them while using a single yarpdev command line.
    See #3078

llmDevice

  • Added LLM_Message data type to propagate LLM answers
  • Added refreshConversation feature in the interface to allow users to restart the conversation mantaining the same prompt.

Navigation2D

  • Added followPath functionality
  • Added paths as possible arguments in gotoLocation in Navigation2D_nwc

Rangefinder2DTransformer

  • Removed deprecated device Rangerfinder2DClient
  • Added device Rangerfinder2DTransformer, with similar functionalities to Rangerfinder2DClient.

Rangefinder2D_nwc_yarp, Rangefinder2D_nws_yarp

  • Network protocol now uses IDL thrift

ffmpeg_grabber

  • Deprecated device

ffmpeg_writer

  • Deprecated device

portaudio

  • Portaudio device, previously marked as deprecated, has been definitely removed from devices' CMakeLists.txt

FakePythonSpeechTranscription

  • Added new device FakePythonSpeechTranscription. The device is also an example which demonstrates the encapsulation of python code inside a c++ device implementing a Yarp interface.

multipleanalogsensorsclient

  • Always establish the rpc connection with the tcp carrier, instead of using the carrier option as done in YARP <= 3.9 .

GUIs

yarpopencvdisplay

  • added new executable yarpopencvdisplay. Similarly to yarpview, it's a basic window to display video streams. It also allows to save to .avi files.

Libraries

lib_yarp_dev

  • Drivers.cpp If the user requests for a not existing plugin, the system now prints a message suggesting devices with similar names
  • The following data types have been migrated from yarp_dev to yarp_sig library: AudioPlayerStatus, AudioRecorderStatus, AudioBufferSize, AudioBufferSizeData, LaserMeasurementData, LaserScan2D.

lib_yarp_sig

  • Improvements to serialization class yarp::sig::Sound (breaking change)
  • yarp_sig can now use IDL thrift to generate custom data types.
  • The following data types have been migrated from yarp_dev to yarp_sig library: AudioPlayerStatus, AudioRecorderStatus, AudioBufferSize, AudioBufferSizeData, LaserMeasurementData, LaserScan2D.

Bindings

Python

  • Fix loading of Python bindings on Windows when installed in arbitrary directory.
