Restarting Publisher

edit

Hi!

I just want to share with you some issue I have detected and might be a bug, but probably it's just that I'm missing something. BTW, I'm using diamondback.

I have a couple of nodes: (A) publisher and (B) subscriber. Actually, I'm using image_transport publishers/subscribers. This is how to reproduce the issue given to nodes like above (of course, B subscribes to a topic that A publishes):

run A + run B + stop (Ctrl+C) A + run A

After that, B doesn't receive any msgs from A.

However, if you do:

run B + run A + stop (Ctrl+C) A + run A

it works ---and, of course, you can repeat the last two steps any number of times.

I just wonder why the first "sequence" doesn't work. Is it because it must be done the second way? ---i.e. run subscribers before publishers.

Thanks,

Enrique
