Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Question about GNU Radio Companion - Calling an external function from a QT GUI Push Button |

Really quick:
* write a Python class that has a function that takes an argument, and
calls the external function you want
* write a GRC block definition (GNU Radio 3.7: XML file, GNU Radio 3.8:
YAML), wrapping that class
* in that, define a property that has a callback; use the function
you've defined above
* add the block to your flow graph
* use the ID of your push button in the aforementioned property.
I see no way of doing that with stock GNU Radio blocks.
Best regards,
Marcus
