Reverts #6609 since that fix didn't Just Work(tm) on Windows. (edit: or Ubuntu. Seems to have broken everything except macOS.) This PR configures CMake to try and find protobuf-config.cmake first, which allows protobuf to pull in abseil for us. If protobuf-config.cmake is not available (coprocessors which don't have a new enough protobuf installed are a common case), it will fallback to CMake's built-in FindProtobuf module, which is what we were using before.
Add wpi::CreateMessage, a wrapper with an ifdef to switch between Arena::CreateMessage and Arena::Create, since the former is deprecated in newer versions of protobuf. This allows forward compatibility with newer versions of protobuf.
We now use a wrapper (wpi::print) to catch exceptions since we can't patch
std::print() to not throw when we ultimately migrate to it.
fmtlib and std format/print throw the same exceptions and always have. We previously patched fmt::print() to not throw a write failure exception, but we can't do that for std::print(); wpi::print() is the migration plan.
LTVUnicycleController is a drop-in replacement with better tuning knobs.
The RamseteCommand examples were removed instead of retrofitted with
LTVUnicycleController because we're planning on removing the command
controller classes anyway, so it would be wasted effort. The
SimpleDifferentialDriveSimulation example shows direct
LTVUnicycleController usage.
This required changing the constant values (e.g. kSize) into functions
(e.g. GetSize()).
Fixed implementations of ForEachNested to be inline (as these are actually
templates).
Also added a ntcore Struct test.
This implements de/serialization for the types that aren't templated (SwerveDriveKinematics) in C++ or where there is no trivial way to go round-trip (Splines) for the messages.
This adds support for two serialization formats for complex data types:
- Protobuf for complex objects with variable length internals that need forward and backward wire compatibility (lower speed, more flexible)
- Raw struct (ByteBuffer-style) for fixed-length objects (higher speed, less flexible)
Deserialization can be done either by creating a new object (for immutable objects) or overwriting the contents of an existing object (for mutable objects).
Implementing classes should provide inner classes that implement the Protobuf or Struct interface (in Java) or specialize the wpi::Protobuf or wpi::Struct struct (in C++). It is possible for classes to implement both. If the class itself does not implement serialization, it's possible for third parties/users to provide an implementation instead.
Uses the Google protobuf implementation for C++ and the QuickBuffers alternative protobuf implementation for Java.
Adds overloads for Transform2d() constructor to accept x, y, and heading and for Transform3d() to accept x, y, z and rotation as a shorthand for the normal constructors.
Made JNI modifications to expose the faster function, made the API use
the typesafe Matrix API, and synchronized the documentation with C++.
Sped up C++ LTV diff drive test from 20 ms to 15 ms.
Sped up C++ LTV unicycle test from 15 ms to 10 ms.
Both seem to work, but the SDA algorithm is specifically recommended for
solving DAREs as opposed to P-DAREs.
The QR decomposition was replaced with a partial pivoting LU
decomposition at the recommendation of section 2.4 of the paper.
More tests and a separate JNI function for each DARE solver variant were
added.
This avoids allocation overhead on construction. times() was also
rewritten to not allocate any temporary objects.
Getter calls in the C++ Quaternion class were modified for parity.
15 m/s is about 50 ft/s, which is way above what FRC robots should be
able to achieve. This limit lets us catch user errors from bad unit
conversions immediately instead of the LUT generation in the LTV
controllers hanging for a really long time.
Fixes#5027.
