Omni-thread problem using multithreading with one thread being GNU Radio

GNU Radio
1

Eric,

I created multiple threads in my application, one thread uses GNU Radio
digital
link, the others are for applications. However, every time I stop the
digital
link and prepare for reconfiguration, I have this error: “terminate
called
after throwing an instance of ‘omni-thread_fatal’”, the main thread and
gnuradio thread are aborted, other threads are still running.

Would you please point out a way to bypass this problem?

Thanks very much.

You’ll need to run this under gdb and see what’s really triggering the
problem, then go from there.

It’s come up twice recently, and I think there should be a wiki page
about it. Unfortunately, I do not have the expertise or know-how to
put something together.

Can someone (preferably who has actually debugged a problem using this
method) please post on the Wiki a how-to guide of debugging GNU Radio
applications using gdb?

Moreover, for those people using GRC, is it at all possible to create
a “debug” block which can execute gdb appropriately and can also be
enabled or disabled? If so, could it also check for other popular
debuggers - ddd for example?
