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

[Marcus Müller]

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

Hi all,

I'd like to establish a bidirectional communication between two attached blocks, without asking the user to write code like msg_connect().  One way could be: the upstream block generate an id like
ID=typeBlock+pseudorandomNumber
and send it to the next block using a tag.
After what the upstream block create a publish port called ID+"alice" and a subscribe to a port called ID+"bob".

Can you tip me a better/cleaner way?

I need this bidirectional channel in order to comunicate device pointer, send kernel code(thanks to CUDA 7),etc..

Thanks for your time,

marco
