Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Swig and python import problem due to other out-of-tree modules used in my out-of-tree module

Hi Jeon,

do you specify gnuradio-dvbt as one of the libraries you link against?

Greetings,
Marcus

I've asked this question before. But there are lots of ambiguity and uncertainty. Thus, this is the clarification.

I am using Reed-Solomon En/decoder in my own OOT module sources. The Reed-Solomon en/decoder are implemented in [gr-dvbt](https://github.com/BogdanDIA/gr-dvbt).

Important codes are:

    [include/reed_solomon.h](https://github.com/BogdanDIA/gr-dvbt/blob/master/include/dvbt/reed_solomon.h)
    [include/reed_solomon_enc.h](https://github.com/BogdanDIA/gr-dvbt/blob/master/include/dvbt/reed_solomon_enc.h)
    [lib/reed_solomon.cc](https://github.com/BogdanDIA/gr-dvbt/blob/master/lib/reed_solomon.cc)

    [lib/reed_solomon_end_impl.h](https://github.com/BogdanDIA/gr-dvbt/blob/master/lib/reed_solomon_enc_impl.h)
    [lib/reed_solomon_end_impl.cc](https://github.com/BogdanDIA/gr-dvbt/blob/master/lib/reed_solomon_enc_impl.cc)

I've built and installed my module. But when I import my module in Python for tests, error occurs:

    >>> import myOOTmodule
    Traceback (most recent call last):
      File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
      File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/myOOTmodule/__init__.py", line 51, in <module>
        from myOOTmodule_swig import *
      File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/myOOTmodule/myOOTmodule_swig.py", line 28, in <module>
        _myOOTmodule_swig = swig_import_helper()
      File "/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/myOOTmodule/myOOTmodule_swig.py", line 24, in swig_import_helper
        _mod = imp.load_module('_myOOTmodule_swig', fp, pathname, description)
    ImportError: /usr/local/lib/libgnuradio-myOOTmodule.so: undefined symbol: _ZN2gr4dvbt12reed_solomonC1Eiiiiiiii

You can also see the error above in [gist](https://gist.github.com/gsongsong/e07883959f6a339b5d78)

The problem is that the above error occurs since I am using gr:dvbt::reed_solomon, which is neither in GNU Radio source tree nor in my module.

I don't know the exact reason for this. But in my guess...
It seems that myOOTmodule thinks gr::dvbt::reed_solomon is a part of myOOTmodule itself. But there is no declaration and implementation and it causes the error.

Or myOOTmodule has no idea where to import gr:dvbt:reed_solomon.

Another hypothesis is that, an OOT module cannot use other OOT modules (in swig-python?). I'm not sure about it. Or, there is a way to do this, but I just don't know about it.

Regards,

Jeon.
