Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Bidirectional communication between attached blocks

[Marcus Müller]

Hi Marco,

I just realized: Things might be much more easy than that, even:

What you do sounds like a job for a hierarchical block; if you're not used to that concept: It's just a "subflowgraph", represented as a block with in- and outputs.
If you put both your blocks inside, you'll always have them together. And: in the constructor of your hierarchical block, you can for example first construct your cuda block, and then give your "downstream" block the pointer to that in its constructor.

To the user, this will look like one block, though there are two (or more) inside.

Greetings,
Marcus

Thank you very much. Your solution is much cleaner.

Have a good day,

Hi marco,

what you describe as ID already exist: every block has a function alias(), giving it a string "name", which can be used with global_block_registry::block_lookup(name) [1].

You will need to wrap your alias in a pmt::intern to get it into a stream tag, so use that with block_lookup, and cast the result to your_block_type::sptr.

Greetings,
Marcus
