Forum: GNU Radio Compiling gr-osmosdr with gnuradio 3.7

Hi, all,

I've just searched on the archive of this mailing list as well as
google. I could not find the answer for this combination.

What I'm trying to do is compiling latest gr-osmosdr with gnuradio 3.7,
which is installed by gnuradio-next package in MacPorts. Configuration
seems good. But when I tried to compile it, I get this error message:

====================
$ make

lib/CMakeFiles/gnuradio-osmosdr.dir/osmosdr_source_c_impl.cc.o

make[1]: *** [lib/CMakeFiles/gnuradio-osmosdr.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2
====================

I could not find gr_noise_source_c.h in
/opt/local/include/gnuradio. Does anybody know how to solve this
problem?

Thanks in advance.

GNU Radio 3.7 will be the *next* release and since it breaks API
compatibility due to namespaces being reorganized third party code
will have to be updated.

Alex,

Yes, I know it's next release. I just wonder if I'm lucky enough to have
gr-osmosdr ready for it at this moment. :-)

Among cheap SDR solutions, is Fun Cube the only one ready for
gnuradio 3.7 right now? It is always built in gnuradio repo, right?

Yes, the Funcube Dongle source block should always be compiled if the
dependencies are met.
You can also try to update gr-osmosdr package for yourself - I suspect
the change is rather trivial.
The transition itself may be more problematic as there are many people
who use version 3.6.

Ok, maybe not that trivial...
I have installed the next branch and I can't find any of the
noise_source_x headers. As I understand it should be in
include/gnuradio/analog/ and I can see the symbol in
libgnuradio-analog.so but I can't find the header. The same for
sig_source_x blocks. Am I missing something?

Nope, you aren't missing anything, but apparently, we are.  I'm looking 
at
the cmake file, and those files should be there, but they aren't being
installed properly. Looking into this now.

Thanks! (And with all of the changes happening to 3.7, this is why we
appreciate testing and feedback!)

Alex,

It was a cmake variable naming problem. I just pushed a fix. I think I 
got
them all in there now, but let me know if you find any others that 
aren't
getting installed.

With the latest changes I can no longer build the next branch :(

Seems to be a similar issue.

Yeah, because I made a complete hash out of my 'fix.' I forgot to try to
build from scratch and didn't realize that I actually turned off the 
header
generation.

Just pushed a new fix. Should do it.

Tom

I don't see why gnuradio 3.7 wouldn't work with open suse 12.2, though
based on our past conversations I suspect you mean the build-gnuradio
script, which is something different.

Hi Tom,

I can build again. I found noise_type.h to missing as well, but after
I added that manually I could finish building gr-osmosdr against
gnuradio 3.7git. I have attached a patch for gr-osmosdr if anyone is
interested, but I'm sure it will support 3.7 soon.

PS: for the patch to work one must ensure that gnuradio-analog and
gnuradio-blocks are available - the patch does not include checks for
those.

The noise_type.h bug has been fixed.
