Hi Jeon. Thank you very much for your response. So if I have for example a vector source V = (1,1,0,1,0,0,1,0,0,0,1,0,1,1,0,1 (which output's type is set to byte), the first stream at the output will be (1,1,0,1,0,0,1,0), is this right? Then, if I use an unpack_k_bits with k = 8 at its output,

Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] variable type while creating a block

2015-06-17 Thread Jeon
Dear Marbelly, unpack_k_bits with k = 1 means, for instance, a byte sample 0x0F (0b ) in a stream is unpacked to 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x01 0x01 0x01 0x01 (MSB first) and only the first insignificant sample is taken and the rest 7 samples are discarded. So if you want to process 8 bits in

2015-06-17 Thread Johannes Demel
Hey David, you should be able to store your bits in a vector. First of all, unpack_k_bits will yield bytes with the LSB carrying the actual bit. All the others should be '0'. Next, the error you get points in another direction. One of the parameters 'work' gets is a vector with void pointers.
