Question

Dear community,

according to the Pull Request 1106 there is a way of deleting models from inside a plugin. For Gazebo>3 there are the following public methods:

public: void RemoveModel(ModelPtr _model);
public: void RemoveModel(const std::string &_name);

Is there any alternative deleting models from inside a plugin in Gazebo 2?

With best regards.

Answer 1

You could publish an entity delete request, it should work on Gazebo 2.2:

transport::requestNoReply(this->node, "entity_delete", <entity name>);
