Hello, New to gnuradio and I am making an OOT CRC8 module to take a tagged bit stream (1's and 0's) and generate the CRC and attach the CRC to the end of the data and pass it on to the next block. Also, I am encapsulating both the generator and check sum in same block using a boolean variable "check" to determine operation.
In QA test I get the following error: gr::log :FATAL: my_crc8_bb0 - Missing a required length tag on port 0 at item #0. thread [thread-per-block[1] < block my crc8_bb(2)>] Missing length tag I modified the QA test vector by writing the length of the input string of 1's and 0's as the first element in the input data array, but it gave the same error as typed above. Questions: Q1. How do I write in the input test vector, or what do I add to what I already have to make the module aware of the tag length? Q2. In the my_crc8_bb_impl.cc file in the tagged stream method, I specified the tag name as "packet_len". In the signal processing in this .cc file, I assume the value of packet_len is available to me for use as a parameter and I used it. Are there some other things I need to do in this "my_crc8_bb_impl.cc file" to make the module more aware of input tagged stream data (maybe I am not binding "packet_len" properly)? I greatly appreciate any help! Regards, George
