[Discuss-gnuradio] PROBLEM: HOW TO WRITE A SIGNAL PROCESSING BLOCK

[Jonas Gacrama]

I have read this website that teaches us how to write our own signal processing block.

WEBSITE:  http://www.gnu.org/software/gnuradio/doc/howto-write-a-block.html

I tried using the autotools like autoconf, automake and aclocal since I would like to "rewrite" the configure (the executable and not the configure.ac). I did this since I intend to write my own signal processing block for use with the GNU Radio.

And so I ran aclocal autoconf and automake respectively. Then I ran the configure script. Unfortunately, upon "make checking" (as in invoking the command MAKE CHECK) I always encounter this error message saying that:

*** No rule to make target `/swig/gnuradio.i', needed by `howto.cc'.  Stop.

How do I circumvent this? What do I need to do?
Note that I did not change ANYTHING from files. I just sort of "rebuilt" it.

Could somebody please reply ASAP. Thanks!

The complete error messages follow:
