RE: Rust-lang

[Getz, Robin]

Also, for PlutoSDR, there is an official RUST Crate:

Hi Sam,

I started looking at using the CXX library for this, there's even a few CMake 
examples. My hope is to make a Rust block similar to the current embedded 
Python Block available in GRC. I've not made it to the point of even test code 
though. If you want to look further into this I'd be very interested.

There are no plans to port the core of GNU Radio to Rust, but Bastian Blossel 
has been doing some experiments around SDR runtimes in Rust.

There are bindings for UHD and the SOAPY SDR device API, but I haven't tried 
either.

Has anyone else looked or thought about this?

Cheers,

Howdy,
 
I've written GNU Radio blocks with C++ and Python in the past, but lately I've 
been transitioning to using Rust-lang for many of my other projects.
Does anyone know of any current Rust integration/porting/rewriting plans or 
efforts for GNU Radio (or other SDR frameworks)?
 
I'm really enjoying using Rust, so I'd really like to be able to use it for SDR 
applications.
 
Thanks,
Sam
