How to build the package on Windows10 ROS2 Humble?

[ZZWang21]

Thanks in advance.

Experts, I am using ROS2 Humble on Windows 10.

I tried to "colcon build" the package, but it keeps failing.

Could any expert share some experience?

Thank you very much!

We currently don't support running the driver on Windows and don't have any immediate plans to change that. If you want to control a robot arm from a windows computer i suggest that you set up an intermediate control pc running e.g. an Ubuntu with RT kernel as documented here and interact with it through the network.

I just realized that we don't document this anywhere, i'll add a note for this in the README.
