Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] implementing message ports on an OOT module

Hi Jason, 

I believe I have seen this issue when I did not register the message port correctly, or when names did not match between GRC and the message port name. 

You may need to modify the C++ code to add a message handler, if you have not already. Do you have a message port registered in your multiaperture_cpremoval block named 'msg'? Does this have a message handler? https://wiki.gnuradio.org/index.php/Guided_Tutorial_Programming_Topics#5.3.2_Adding_Message_Passing_to_the_Code

Hope this helps, 

EJ

I had originally asked this question on the USRP site, but it was recommended by someone from Ettus to post over here since there is a chance it is more of a GNURadio issue than USRP.

I am attempting to create an RFNoC block for the X310 and it works fine.  I then wanted to add a message port to the block to pass variable into it.  The message port shows up in GRC and the flowgraph runs fine as long as I leave the message port disconnected.  Once I try to connect something to it, I see the following error:
Could not find port: msg in:
rfnoc

I can't for the life of me figure out what GR "could not find."  I see other people with similar posts in the past, but I never found a good resolution.
