[Discuss-gnuradio] GNU Radio Companion now integrated into GNU Radio

[Johnathan Corgan]

The GNU Radio Companion ("GRC") is graphical tool that allows rapid
experimentation with and code generation of GNU Radio flow graphs.
Developed by Josh Blum and previously available as a separate
application, it has now been integrated into GNU Radio proper.  By
installing the trunk version of GNU Radio, you will also get GRC,
provided you have the necessary prerequisites already installed on
your system.

In addition to the usual GNU Radio prerequisites, GRC requires
installation of the Python Cheetah template library
("python-cheetah"), the Python wrappers around libxml and libxslt
("python-lxml"), the Python wrappers around GTK2 ("python-gtk2"), and
doxygen.  See http://gnuradio.org/trac/wiki/GNURadioCompanion#Requirements
for more details.

To enable the documentation inside GRC, use the --enable-doxygen
option when invoking 'configure' in the standard build sequence:

$ ./bootstrap
$ ./configure --enable-doxygen (..and whatever else you might use here...)
$ make
$ make check
$ sudo make install

Then:

$ grc

GRC will become part of release 3.2. The Wiki page for GRC is:

Thanks, Josh!
