Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] GR win64 binaries v1.1 posted

Geof,

out of curiosity:

In your setting do you see the errors produced in cases 2 and 3 (but the program keeps running) or is it that you do not see these errors at all?

thanks

Achilleas

2) A simple flowgraph with noise, throttle, filter, fft display runs perfectly with WX.

The initial GRC errors are known and for now occur on all the builds.  

The QT/GTK error is interesting.  Unfortunately, I'm still building blind for these older systems, in a month I'll have good direct access.  I will try to work it regardless.

Thanks for the feedback!

I had partial success with these binaries:

All,

An updated set of windows binaries and build scripts have been posted.  Quick summary:

1- Added gqrx to package

2- Patched 2 x issues which would cause the generic version to crash on non-AVX systems (one in volk, one in FFTW)

3- Added gr-newmod to package

Plus a number of improvements to make the scripts more robust.

Binaries at http://www.gcndevelopment.com/gnuradio/downloads.htm

Scripts at https://github.com/gnieboer/GNURadio_Windows_Build_Scripts

A couple gqrx known bugs:

1- Toolbar icons do not appear (our Qt5 issue)

2- Switching a USRP to another modulation will cause a crash (upstream UHD)

3- Switching between a RTL-SDR device and a USRP device will cause a crash (upstream gqrx)

Cheers,

Geof
