Frederick, You will have to recompile and reinstall, but not everything. If you are modifying a single block, you can just rebuild from that components directory. You want to do the entire component to make sure SWIG is initiated again to rebuild the Python interface. But this is much quicker than rebuilding from the top source directory that would walk through all directories (it won't rebuild them, but the walking takes time). So if you are changing a block in gr-digital, you can just: cd gr-digital make make test (or ctest) sudo make install Tom _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
