Hi,  
I have changed things in udp\_source\_impl.cc, and I re-built the gnuradio  
as in the following instructions:  
cmake  
make  
sudo make install  
However, the changes that I did to udp\_source\_impl.cc did not work, it  
is still using the old version.

Could you please help me fix this issue.  
Thanks

Changes to the source code don’t require you to rerun cmake, which could  
be  
setting the install prefix differently. It’s possible that you’ve  
installed  
your changes to a different prefix that you are not actually using now.
