Re: Gnuradio Extras

[Derek Kozel]

    Hi,
    
    You should be able to modify the code in the Python Block template
    to be a basic_block rather than the default sync_block just by
    changing the class inheritance. The GNU Radio Extras block is over
    five years old and the documentation from it is probably unhelpful.
    
    If you need for info it would be very helpful to understand why you
    need a basic block and what you're trying to do with it.
    
    Cheers,
    Derek

Hi Derek,

   Thank you for your info. 

   I am aware of that the python block is included, but there are four types of blocks as far as I am concerned (interp, decim, synchronous, and basic blocks shown in https://wiki.gnuradio.org/index.php/Types_of_Blocks).  

   I want to use the basic block and so i need to import GNURadio extras module, but I ran into the error message that no such module exists. Is this module also included by default? 

 

    Regards,

    Lannan Jiang

Hi Lannan Jiang,

The Python Block is included by default now in GNU Radio. Here is a
tutorial showing it's use.
