Re: Problem building hamlib under Cygwin

Hi,

Maybe overriding CC and CXX erased the default include directory ?
Could you please check if the script could find other include files
located here ?

[Help] hamlib-1.2.15.1, Elektor SDR-USB missing

The following forum message was posted by moserwi at http://sourceforge.net/projects/hamlib/forums/forum/25919/topic/5241647:

Platform Kubuntu 11.10
downloaded the tarball ./configure, make, make install as root with no problems
but
rigctl --list does not show elektor sdr-usb any more

checked the definition in rigctl.h and the elektor sdr-usb is there
Ahm... sorry I am a little bit confused and have no Ideas on this...

Can I download the elektor definition and slam it in as a plugin somehow?

Tks for helping me out..

The following forum message was posted by moserwi at http://sourceforge.net/projects/hamlib/forums/forum/25919/topic/5241647:

purged all packages libhamlib hamlib* with synaptic ( had some 1.2.14.1 packages
installed too)
with 12.15.1
make uninstall
make clean
make distclean...
./configure
make
elektor 503 + 507 objects are created
make install
ldconfig
rigctl --list shows elector sdr-usb

though it went ok this time.

could be that the last installation did not purge some config files with the
old definitions?

Thank you for your helping hand...

Hard to say what was the cause.  I know that in the past that installing the
libusb-dev package has solved the Kist USB backends build issue.

Have fun, Willi.

Re: python binding documentation / pcr1000

Hi,
Thanks for  the feedback and apologies for the delay.

my comments inline.

Yes, the rig supports the function via I0? command, with the same
expected responses.

I tried to implement the function adding 	
    ".get_dcd = pcr_get_dcd," to pcr1000_caps in pcr1000.c.

tried: make distclean, ./configure, make
and ran the rigctld from hamlib-1.2.15.1/tests/.libs/

Still, the output from a simple connection with python calling get_dcd was:
    >>> s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM)
    >>> s.connect((ip, port))
    >>> s.send("\x8b\n")
    2
    >>> print s.recv(b_size)
    RPRT -4

on the rigctld -vvvvv output:
    Connection opened from 127.0.0.1:53473
    rigctl(d):  'currVFO' '' '' ''

Maybe I didn't compile it correctly, this is not the correct way to
test it without installing?

Many thanks

IOS Question ....

Anyone know of a similar library for IOS (objective C) ? Same question for .net support (mono or ms) ?

Thanks for any information you can give.
