Hi,

As compiling gnuradio on this platform is not completely trivial, I’ve  
made  
a simple walkthrough a few months ago. It’s for a slightly old version  
(3.6.4.1), but it can be adapter for 3.6.5.1 (although I haven’t tried  
yet), so I’m re-posting it in the hope that it will be useful for  
others.

Christophe

I forgot to include a couple additional required files, in particular  
the  
ORC project.

Christophe,

I haven’t been able to look at this, but it sounds fantastic. Thanks  
for the work!

Is there any chance you could update our Windows build guide on the  
wiki with this information? What’s there is very out-of-date:  
[http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/WindowsInstall](http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/WindowsInstall)

That would probably be the best format and place to keep this info  
alive and easily accessible.

Thanks!

Sure, that’s an excellent idea. I might have to update it a bit though  
so  
as to include instructions for hackrf/bladerf (and possibly mirics as  
well).
