Many ROS packages adopt this visibility control header to make the packages Windows-compatible. And the visibility control is conditionally guarded by
ROS_BUILD_SHARED_LIBS
which is defined by catkin in CMake file.However, for
sip
module, it is running its own Makefile generated bysip
, and this important definition (ROS_BUILD_SHARED_LIBS
) is not automatically inherited. In such case, when it is building thesip
module and ROS visibility control headers are in use there, it doesn't use the expected visibility control code path.
