Brooke,
How did you create the block? Was it using gr_modtool or did you roll
it yourself from scratch? It looks like something in the SWIG
interface is probably wrong. Do you have a separate interface (.i)
file for this block or are you just including the header file in a
"radar_swig.i" file? (The latter is the preferred way.)
So make sure you have a make function and that the block is properly
included in a SWIG interface file.
