Problems with geometry_msgs::PoseStamped

Hi, I am try to write a tool that uses geometry_msgs::PoseStamped. Unfortunately I always get the error

src/systemplatform.cpp.o: In function `feedbackLoop(geometry_msgs::PoseStamped_<std::allocator<void> > const&)':  .../systemplatform.cpp:44: undefined reference to `Tool::getPose(geometry_msgs::PoseStamped_<std::allocator<void> >, double*)' 
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

The error appears in Source File: systemplatform.c with the call of tool.getPose(msgPose, posetypeRNum); I don't find the error, but can imagine that is related to the use or call of msgPose which should be geometry_msgs::PoseStamped rosTopicMsg; It would be really nice if you could help me. I have added the code as following:

Thanks a lot in Advance!!!

{

The linker error message is pretty clear: It tells that the function which you are calling in feedbackLoop(), Tool::getPose(...), is declared in a header file, but its implementation is not defined.

In tool.cpp you have a typo: It says Toll::getPose instead of Tool::getPose. I wonder why you are getting a linker error, though, as this should already cause an error during compilation because a Tollclass it not declared anywhere. In your CMakeLists.txt, did you forget to add tool.cpp as a source file in the add_executable() / add_library() call?
