That message is useless ... with a parallell build, the error can be
_much_ before the end of the logs so you need to looks for it at any
point before the end.

That's also why it seems to go a little further each time, it's
because the various parallell branch, only one crashes and the other
slightly go forward.

Irfan,

the first message came through, there is no need to repeat it.
When writing messages like these, it helps to specify what you've tried
to figure out the solution.

Short answer: These blocks append a bit sequence at the tx side, and
find the rx sequence on the rx side to find the first bit of a packet.

May it be just some lost packet or smth. like that? It looks very similar
when USB does not catch up when using my USRP1 and BladeRF... Missing

I don't recall seeing any U's but I can recheck tomorrow. The gain on the
USRP was set to -2. The USRP was connected directly with an SMA cable. The
analyzer is an Agilent E4440A, the Analyzer is rated for at least 1 Watt on
average, 100 Watt on a peak pulse (with the built-in attenuator in use).
While I am not ruling out the maximum input I thought the N210 tops out at
0.5 Watts due to FCC regulations.

 Hi all,
 I'm trying to make a delay on a signal with a variable delay with a WX GUI
 Slider. When i run the simulation and try to add a delay on a sinusoidal

This is a problem with typing between Python and C++. The delay block wants
(demands, really) an integer value, but your slider is passing back a
float. In the delay block, cast it as int(delay_slider).

Also, you can use the delay block from GNU Radio; it allows variable
delays. There's nothing wrong with using the blocks from gr-baz, but I
would recommend you use blocks that are directly part of GNU Radio when
they are available. Mostly because more of the community will be more
familiar with them.

[Discuss-gnuradio] followup: libgnuradio-fcd-3.7.3git.so.0.0.0: undefined reference to `libusb_handle_events_completed'

2014-01-08 Thread ikjtel
OK, this error seems to be all fixed now, but as a result I now have a doubt 
about pybombs .

[The background of the problem is in the previous posting (yesterday) about 
this, but essentially the problem started when I changed the pybombs recipe for 
libusb in order to force pybombs to build libusb from source rather than to use 
the libusb-1.0-0-dev (that was originally set in satisfy_deb). ]

Once this was changed, pybombs did in fact fetch the libusb source and built 
that - however, subsequent compiles were still looking in /usr/include for the 
.h files (and finding the old, bad ones).  I bypassed that error.

Then the linker also bombed out, again where pybombs should have looked in its 
own built-from-source copy of libusb.  At that point I posted the first message 
about the linker problem late last night...


I offer the following message as 'documentation' of the claim that pybombs is 
still trying to link against the system copy of libusb and not its own local 
copy of libusb that it built from source...  Note that it prints the library 
location...


make[2]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libusb-1.0.so',

Did not work the way I expected either, had to uninstall the system

I reran from cmake, but it resolved to the system header files and lib,

 Thanks for the advice though.
I guess GNU Radio needs more SWIG experts, and someone who knows who
to coerce python to just do what I tell you...
 
 I've tried everything, and I'm feeling really dumb for not managing
 to make it work. I've switched to a more practical method, using
 lock() and unlock().
Don't feel dumb.
 
 But even destroying all blocks (including the file sink block) and 
 constructing them again, it doesn't work. Also, I've switched order
 and it always works for the first time. There's something I'm
 missing. (The only blocks I'm not destroying are the USRP blocks
 now, but I don't think that could be it, even if the USRP was
 giving out weird data it would write it to file.) The thing is,
 since I'm not using any wxgui blocks right now and I never intended
 to, I don't even know how I'm supposed to debug and check if
 there's anything reaching the file sink.
Ok, I know this is not incredibly helpful if you're dealing with very
much samples, but maybe try this:
- - replace file_sink by vector_sink_X
- - at the end of your flowgraph run, get a numpy.array(vector_sink.data())
- - using the numpy arrays .tofile() method, save it to a file
 
 Can I extract and print in python the info going through a certain
 block, or something like that? Or do I have to delve into C++
 territory?
Can be done in python.
Just write a python block that a) copies the input to the output and
b) prints nitems_read() or something of the like.


Hope I could alleviate your situation a little,

Marcus

[Discuss-gnuradio] GRC Hier block with vector IO not working as expected

2014-01-08 Thread Felix W.
Hi list,

I'm currently in the process of porting my gr-drm project to the 3.7 API
and now I'm a little bit stuck and hope that someone here can help me.

I want to create a hier block (in GRC) that accepts vectors as input and
output. Their size is controlled by parameters like vlen_in and vlen_out.
Unfortunately, the IO size of the generated hier block always stays 1, no
matter what I use as parameter. I attached a minimal (pure GNU Radio)
example flow graph and hier block that reproduces my problem. Maybe I
overlooked something obvious, but I don't get why this is not working.

If someone had the time to try this and could report if it works (it does
not for me), I would be very grateful.

I'm on Ubuntu 12.10 and have GNU Radio v3.7.2.1-116-ge751e54a installed.

Regards,
Felix Wunsch

 I don't recall seeing any U's but I can recheck tomorrow. The gain on the
 USRP was set to -2. The USRP was connected directly with an SMA cable. The
 analyzer is an Agilent E4440A, the Analyzer is rated for at least 1 Watt on
 average, 100 Watt on a peak pulse (with the built-in attenuator in use).
 While I am not ruling out the maximum input I thought the N210 tops out at
 0.5 Watts due to FCC regulations.



 Thanks

 Jon

Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] GRC Hier block with vector IO not working as expected

2014-01-08 Thread Johannes Demel
Hi Felix,

I can reproduce it. Problem is that the generated 'xml' file is not
generated correctly. The parameter 'vlen' should be written as '$vlen' in
the xml files source/sink section but it is written as 'vlen'. Thus 'vlen'
is treated as the value. Happens with 'v3.7.2-11-g3b27cc47'. I don't know
how to fix it though.

Happy hacking
Johannes

 Hi list,

 I'm currently in the process of porting my gr-drm project to the 3.7 API
 and now I'm a little bit stuck and hope that someone here can help me.

 I want to create a hier block (in GRC) that accepts vectors as input and
 output. Their size is controlled by parameters like vlen_in and vlen_out.
 Unfortunately, the IO size of the generated hier block always stays 1, no
 matter what I use as parameter. I attached a minimal (pure GNU Radio)
 example flow graph and hier block that reproduces my problem. Maybe I
 overlooked something obvious, but I don't get why this is not working.

 If someone had the time to try this and could report if it works (it does
 not for me), I would be very grateful.

 I'm on Ubuntu 12.10 and have GNU Radio v3.7.2.1-116-ge751e54a installed.

[Discuss-gnuradio] a pybombs bug, plus a question

2014-01-08 Thread ikjtel
I found this bug to be very humorous ;-)


In the case of a source download where the source file to be unpacked
is one of tar.gz or tgz or tar.bz2 or tbz2, you had better not make the 

name of the recipe the same as the name of the top-level directory in the
archive.  If you make them the same name, guess what happens in this
code in mod_pybombs/fetch.py:
    rmrf(self.recipe.name);
    os.rename(dirname, self.recipe.name);


The rmrf nukes the unpacked source in its entirety !


On to the question - noticed that when pybombs builds boost it doesn't
seem to be using more than one CPU - i.e., it's like make -j1 - is there a 

quick fix for this ? 


Best

Max

Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] GRC Hier block with vector IO not working as expected

2014-01-08 Thread Felix W.
Hi,

thanks for confirming that and pointing me to the right spot in the code.
For now, I'll just fix it in the xml as I include them in the repo anyway.

Is this a known bug or should I file a bug report for this?

Regards,
Felix
