Transformation on point cloud throws an error

[dhuettig]

Hi,
I'm using the provided example code to test a transformation on a point cloud but I get the runtime error Bus error: 10. I'm using the same file examples/data/car_cloud400.csv as in the example description.

I had to change the line rigidTrans = PM::get().REG(Transformation).create("RigidTransformation"); to rigidTrans = PM::get().REG(Transformation).create("RigidTransformation").get();, otherwise the compiler throws the following error:

error: assigning to 'PM::Transformation *' from incompatible type 'std::shared_ptr<Transformation>'
        rigidTrans = PM::get().REG(Transformation).create("RigidTransformation");

@AlexandreG87 or @simonpierredeschenes is that caused by the latest change for shared pointers?

@dhuettig The correction is only to change to code example? If that is the case 5a72892 should resolve the issue.

@pomerlef It seems that the example code in the documentation hasn't be updated when @simonpierredeschenes change the raw pointers to shared pointers in this PR #284. So, for now, I suggest @dhuettig to change PM::Transformation* to std::shared_ptr<PM::Transformation> instead.

I'll fix the doc and submit a PR.

Thank you for the replies.

@pomerlef using PM::get().REG(Transformation).create("RigidTransformation").get(); doesn't resolve the issue since then the compiler throws a bus error 10.

@AlexandreG87 using std::shared_ptr<PM::Transformation> worked and the transformation can be applied.
