Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Propsal draft: Block Header Parsing Tool

[Arpit Gupta]

Hello everyone,

Please review the updated version of my proposal.

I also want to ask that does the block header parsing tool need to have support for python2.7?

Proposal Link: https://aru31.github.io/gsoc-proposal.pdf

Github Repository Link: https://github.com/aru31/GSoC-Proposal

Thanks.

Hello everyone,

Thanks for the detailed review.

I have made changes to my proposal, as per the discussion in the previous emails and also included the timeline changes.

Please review the updated version of my proposal.

As a precursor to the actual project, I experimented with a rudimentary prototype of a parser for C++ header files using Pygccxml, which can be found at https://github.com/aru31/parser-prototype

Hi Nicolas and Martin,

Thank you again for answering all my queries.

I will definitely make the changes suggested in the timeline.

By "both the tools", I meant that there would be an option to use any one of the following parsers.

Thanks!

Do you mean, use both tools at the same time, or have an option to use
either tool?
