In GR 3.7, the shared pointer is usually blockname::sptr;
I can't really point you to a very good example, but when you call
top_block.connect(src, sink) in C++, you're giving it spointers :)
As I said, whenever you make a block, you actually get a shared pointer to that instance, and not the object itself.

So in my mac, I want something likeMarcus,Thanks for your reply. What will the shared pointer be called. I see stuff like this in the code:
GR_SWIG_BLOCK_MAGIC2(uhd, usrp_source)
GR_SWIG_BLOCK_MAGIC2(uhd, usrp_sink)
GR_SWIG_BLOCK_MAGIC2(uhd, amsg_source)

Hi Ranga,
that's what pointers are for, after all. Just do it! Thanks to the make()-magic you basically always have a smart shared pointer instead of an block object (unless you really try to break the system ;) ).
Just a quick note though: MAC is usually timing-relevant. Timed commands might not work as you expect, so please be aware that calling set_command_time on your source might break functionality since there is no out-of-order execution.
Greetings,
Marcus

Hello all!I want to write a block that can directly access the uhd_usrp_source. This block is a mac block hence it is up on the food chain and far away from uhd_usrp_source in terms of its processing function. What is a good way of passing it a handle to the usrp_source ?
I can think of some hacks (such as a static global pointer where the uhd_usrp_source C++ object registers itself) but it seems ugly to me to take that route. Is there a better way to access global objects from within a block implementation.
Thanks in advance for any help.
Regards,
Ranga
