Hi List, I got the error: welch\_impl.cc:83 std::vector window shadows the variable with the same name (l. 81), albeit uninitialized, outside the if case. I will provide a pull request tonight.

Januar 2015 15:17 An: removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid; ‘removed\_email\_address@domain.invalid’ Betreff: Gr-Specest: window not passed? Hello Moritz, Hello List, I might have found some unintended behaviour in gr-specest. I claim that the content of const std::vector &window is not passed in the constructor, if called by the GRC block. I cannot explain why and ask for hints on how to correct the behavior. I could supply a patch then. Consider the enclosed diff against the git version of lib/Welch\_impl.cc, which basically adds some debugging output. Running this with the original GRC block, I get the following output: Window created; size: 2048 (which is my FFT size) =\> the make(…int window\_type…) function works correctly specest\_check\_arguments\_impl::window.size() = 0 =\> this make(…, const std::vector &window) does not get the window’s values Constructor: 0 =\> the constructor(…, const std::vector &window) does not get the window’s values, either I suppose that this has something to do with the call-by-reference of const std::vector, but I cannot explain why. Can you confirm this behavior? Could you please help me finding a solution for this an let me fix it?
