urdfdom_py transmission issue

[drfenixion]

Looks like urdfdom and urdfdom_py are parsers with different behaviour and that should not be so.

I have issue with transmission what was fixed in ros/urdfdom#36 (comment)

problem urdf is:

  <transmission name="r_wrist_trans" type="pr2_mechanism_model/WristTransmission">
    <rightActuator mechanicalReduction="60.1714285714" name="r_wrist_r_motor"/>
    <leftActuator mechanicalReduction="60.1714285714" name="r_wrist_l_motor"/>
    <flexJoint mechanicalReduction="-1.0" name="r_wrist_flex_joint"/>
    <rollJoint mechanicalReduction="1.0" name="r_wrist_roll_joint"/>
  </transmission>

I see matches of needed tags (rightActuator) https://github.com/ros/urdfdom/blob/3f6bf9a608065464bb6c2828af6e96c8f577f2bf/xsd/urdf.xsd#L247 and therefore urdfdom should be ok with it (i did not tested)

but urdfdom_py leads to error and i dont see any matches of rightActuator https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Aros%2Furdf_parser_py%20rightActuator&type=code Looks like urdfdom_py cant work with it.

Error got by urdf_parser_py with urdf with that transmission.
