I like this change in header include structure. Most of the projects I work on do it this way, and it makes a lot of sense. Because this will be a change that impacts just about everyone doing C++ development using GNU Radio, I think -if possible- it would be good to keep the "gr_<name>.h" headers around, but all they do is 2 things: 1) print out a #warning about being deprecated, and to instead use "blocks/<name>.h" -- or, whatever makes sense for such a message; and 2) #include "blocks/<name>.h" so that the user's code still compiles as before That way, we benefit from the new header include structure, but aren't totally screwed if we've forgotten to use it. And, somewhere down the road after an appropriate amount of time, the "gr_<name>.h" headers can be removed entirely, if desired, because everyone has been well warned. I hope something along this line can be done. - MLD _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
