Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Gnuradio life cycle

[CEL]

Hi Daniel,

no, that's not right. 

In your program, whatever that is, if it wants to use GNU Radio:

You set up a bunch of blocks – to even instantiate them, their
constructors must return – and then tell the GNU Radio top_block to
connect them. After you've done with that, you tell the top_block to
run() or start() (and wait() until finished). 

That in turn allocates all the buffers between blocks, and then calls
every block's start() method (most blocks you'll see don't even
implement that) to make the block "ready".

After that, the scheduler starts doing its thing, which is calling all
the blocks' work() (or general_work()) methods, whenever there's new
input for a block and/or enough output space. 

Maybe [1] helps a bit.

Best regards,
Marcus
