I am really kind of a beginner when it comes to this mutex stuff. Since we don't have the newest gnuradio version from git running here it seems I need to use something called mld_mutex instead of gruel. I found this via google in usrp/host/lib/fusb_darwin but it is not working. I couldn't find out which header to include. My idea was to do something like this: d_metric is a struct d_metric_mutex->lock(); d_metric.x = something d_metric.y = something d_metric_mutex->unlock(); metric get_metric () const { d_metric_mutex->lock(); return d_metric; d_metric_mutex->unlock(); } So when I return a struct to python via SWIG, what will happen. Will there be some copy of it generated? _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
