I am having some issues with a custom RFNoC block output when trying to
run my python script. My block takes in a complex int 16, and outputs a
complex int 16 as well as a "byte". The byte is really a 32b value that
the receiving end will use to convert to a float. This is a follow on
from a previous GRC conversation I had here [1].
Right now I am testing my pass-through of the complex data (to get my
axi flags working right), so I don't even care about the byte data, but
it is what is giving me issues...
So based on the previous thread, I have an RFNoC GRC block that has an
output of a "byte", but I am attempting to put 32b through it. I've
tried passing that through a RFNoC: FIFO to a File Sink, as well as just
going from the block to a Null Sink, neither are working. When I got
straight to a Null Sink, I get the following:
Traceback (most recent call last):

OK, makes sense, it says that I have 8B coming out of the TimeSync0:1,
but the null is expecting 1. So I go into the python script and change
the following line:
self.blocks_null_sink_0 = blocks.null_sink(gr.sizeof_char*1)
to:
self.blocks_null_sink_0 = blocks.null_sink(gr.sizeof_char*8)
and now I get the output:

This doesn't make sense to me as the following is in my pythonscript:
self.blocks_null_sink_0 = blocks.null_sink(gr.sizeof_char*8)
self.blocks_file_source_0_0 =
blocks.file_source(gr.sizeof_gr_complex*1,
"/home/jason/reducedInput.txt", False)
self.blocks_file_sink_0 =
blocks.file_sink(gr.sizeof_gr_complex*1, "/tmp/complexData.txt", False)
self.blocks_file_sink_0.set_unbuffered(False)

What am I missing here? I assume I am doing something stupid somewhere
or am following Martin's plan for me in [1] incorrectly....
