UHD in Windows - _uhd_swig not found

GNU Radio
1

Hello,

I’m getting the following error when trying to run a gnuradio graph with
USRP in windows:

File “c:\Program
Files\gnuradio\lib\site-packages\gnuradio\uhd\uhd_swig.py”, line 22, in
swig_import_helper

_mod = imp.load_module('_uhd_swig', fp, pathname, description)

ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found.

I did a quick google search and this thread came up:
http://lists.ettus.com/pipermail/usrp-users_lists.ettus.com/2012-May/004520.html

but it looks there was no resolution. I tried putting uhd.dll on the
system path, but I get the same error.

Is uhd.dll really the file I need, or is it _uhd_swig.pyd (which I’m
assuming to be a library, since it looks like gobbledy gook in
notepad)

There should be a file called _uhd_swig.so that it’s not finding. This
file
will be located with the other gr-uhd Python files in:

"c:\Program Files\gnuradio\lib\site-packages\gnuradio\uhd"

This looks to me like maybe a problematic or aborted installation. But
just
know that we don’t have any active support for Windows installations, so
you might be on your own there.
