Changelog:

## [3.8.0.0] - 2019-08-09

Witness me!

Tonight, we release GNU Radio 3.8.0.0.

It's the first minor release version since more than six years, not without
pride this community stands to face the brightest future SDR on general purpose
hardware ever had.

Since we've not been documenting changes in the shape of a Changelog for the
whole of the development that happened since GNU Radio 3.7.0, I'm afraid that
these release notes will be more of a GLTL;DR (git log too long; didn't read)
than a detailed account of what has changed.

What has _not** changed is the fact that GNU Radio is centered around a very
simple truth:

> Let the developers hack on DSP. Software interfaces are for humans, not the
> other way around.

And so, compared to the later 3.7 releases, nothing has fundamentally modified
the way one develops signal processing systems with GNU Radio: You write blocks,
and you combine blocks to be part of a larger signal processing flow graph.

With that as a success story, we of course have faced quite a bit of change in
the systems we use to develop and in the people that develop GNU Radio. This has
lead to several changes that weren't compatible with 3.7.

**This is an excerpt only:**

### Fixed

#### Project Scope

- Roughly 36 dBBug, (ETOOMANYBUGS)
- Fixed .so versioning

### Changed

#### Project Scope

- C++11
- merged the wholeness of the `next` branch
- Dependency version bumps: CMake, GCC, MSVC, Swig, Boost
- New dependencies: MPIR/GMP, Qt5, gsm, codec2
- Removed dependencies: libusb, Qt4, CppUnit
- Python: Python 2 & Python 3 compatible. 3.8 will be the last Py2k-compatible
  release series
- gengen was replaced by templates (if you don't know gengen, don't do any
  research; save yourself that sorrow)
- Modern CMake (as far as feasible at this point)
- VOLK version updated to v2.0.0
- .clang-format file now dictates coding style
- clang-format'ed the whole tree.
- installed CMake files now tell about configuration

#### gnuradio-runtime

- reworked fractional tag time handling, especially in the context of resamplers

#### GRC

- C++ generation as option
- YAML instead of XML
- removed `blks2`
- much better canvas tooling
- consistent gobject usage
- ROUNDED ARROWS

#### gr-qtgui

- moving from Qt4 to Qt5

#### gr-utils

- `gr_modtool` now vastly improved

#### gr-vocoder

- improved versatility
- removed in-tree libgsm, libcodec2, use system-wide libs

### Removed

#### Project Scope
- Modules `gr-comedi`, `gr-fcd` and `gr-wxgui` are gone

#### gr-comedi

- nobody could remember who used this, or for what. It has seen 0 active code
  contributions in the 3.7 lifecycle

#### gr-digital

- python-based `packet_encoder` and related tools: Bugs that were sporadic and
  never fixed, so after long deprecation, we're removing it

#### gr-fcd

- since it's currently untestable by the CI, it's being removed, as there was no
  code contributions. Generally, we strive to include all batteries with GNU
  Radio. Re-integration within a more general SDR interface would be desirable.

#### gr-utils

- removed PyQwt (dead) based tools

#### gr-wxgui

- Unmaintained, breaks on increasingly many systems, always was slower than
  Qtgui. We've been starting to tell people to migrate to Qt since at
  least 2015. Now, we're finally removing it.

====
Mike English notes:

Note that the 3.8.0.0 tarball is again available from
https://www.gnuradio.org/releases/gnuradio/ and the volk dependency
(a submodule in the git repo) is included so we can do away with
USES_GITHUB and go back to building from the official release tarball.

I've run this through portlint and poudriere already, so it should apply
cleanly.

Update to 3.8.0.0-rc2

# Changelog
All notable changes to GNU Radio will be documented in this file.

The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](http://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/)
and this project adheres to [Semantic
Versioning](http://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0.html), starting with version 3.7.12.0.

Older Logs can be found in `docs/RELEASE-NOTES-*`.

## [3.8.0.0-rc2] - 2019-07-20

This is the second release candidate for GNU Radio 3.8.

### Fixed
#### Project Scope
- Last minute patch lead to SWIG libraries not getting installed into the right
Python paths
#### gr-utils
- `gr_modtool`: Paths with spaces in them used to break

### Changed
#### GRC
- Copy & Paste behaviour now like on 3.7: appending numbers to block IDs only on
conflicts

## [3.8.0.0-rc1] - 2019-07-17

This is the release candidate for GNU Radio 3.8.

For brevity reasons, this document does NOT contain a complete CHANGELOG
comparing 3.8.0.0 to 3.7.0, because the development model changed underway, and
there's no human-feasible way to detangle the changes from more than six years
of development.

The major user-relevant changes will be noted here in the actual release.

What we can do here is point out that we've got a glorious amount of 215
individual contributors that added at least one commit since 3.7.0.

This is a **big** step towards the future of the world's most popular FOSS SDR
framework.

Let us ride eternal, shiny and chrome.

Update to 3.8 git version to move from Qt4 to Qt5

## unreleased

### Fixed
#### Project Scope
- `boost::posix_time::[milli]second` takes integer numbers, and we now at least
cast the floats to integers, as Boost 1.67 forced us to realize we're
(incorrectly) using floating point her
- CMake: using regex to match compiler against "Clang" now enables correct build
on OS X
#### GRC
- Fixed GRC bug which broke WX and Qt (by altering the template code), in
multiple (less than awesome) steps
#### gr-analog
- `fmdet_cf`'s derivative coefficients were wrong.
#### gr-blocks
- `float_array_to_int`: int32 limits were wrongly hardcoded.
- Fixed the undefined behaviour happening in `float_to_complex` when accessing
the second input_items element in the single-input case

### Added
#### gr-analog
- QA for complex cosine
#### gr-utils
- `gr_modtool` now with autocompletion candidates for `rm`

### Changed
#### Project Scope
- Removed cppunit from all unit tests, replaced by Boost
- Removed the cppunit dependency

 

23:33 db 

## [3.7.13.4] - 2018-07-15

### Fixed
#### Project Scope
- Fix Boost 1.67 linking issue
#### gnuradio-runtime
- Logging: fixed issues where messages weren't properly written to stdout/stderr
due to incorrect strings
#### gr-analog
- `fmdet_cf`'s derivative coefficients were wrong.
#### gr-blocks
- `skiphead` used to incorrectly handle tags, now properly shifts
#### gr-digital
- `qa_packet_format`: Unit test used to potentially lock up due to incorrect
conditionals
- `clock_recovery_cc`, `crc32_bb`: Accessing the `[0]` element of an empty
vector is UB, even if you don't use the result afterwards.
#### gr-fec
- `polar_encoder`/`_common`: Fixed multiple out-of-bound accesses due to
insufficient vector length checks
#### gr-filter
- `fft_filter`, `filter_delay`: Accessing the `[0]` element of an empty vector
is UB, even if you don't use the result afterwards.

Fix dependancy problem when UHD is not used.

## [3.7.13.3] - 2018-06-13

### Fixed
#### Project Scope
- For non-C++11 compilers, the new cstdint include doesn't work out;
conditionalized it.

## [3.7.13.2] - 2018-05-31

### Fixed
#### Project Scope
- Actually bumped version in CMakeLists.txt to 3.7.13.2; the 3.7.13.1 tag was
tagged off-branch; maintainer failure to simultaneously push a commit that
raises the internal version number to 3.7.14.0: this had to be reverted ASAP.

## [3.7.13.1] - 2018-05-31

### Fixed
#### Project Scope
- Actually bumped version in CMakeLists.txt

## [3.7.13.0] - 2018-05-31

### Fixed
#### Project Scope
- `boost::posix_time::[milli]second` takes integer numbers, and we now at least
cast the floats to integers, as Boost 1.67 forced us to realize we're
(incorrectly) using floating point her
- CMake: using regex to match compiler against "Clang" now enables correct build

- Fixed the undefined behaviour happening in `float_to_complex` when accessing
the second input_items element in the single-input case

## [3.7.12.0] - 2018-04-01

### Software Engineering
- Changed Changelog format
- Introducing Semantic Versioning
- Change of development model: Rather than merging bugfixes to maint, merging
maint to master, and next, if applicable, we'll be moving forward more in a
typical management model: Development happens on master, and bugfixes are
cherrypicked onto the maint-${RELEASE} branch. More info:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/discuss-gnuradio/2018-02/msg00133.html
- First attempt at having a .clang-format file to improve code contribution
style quality. This is Work In Progress.

### Fixed
#### Project Scope
- Buildability on systems where custom CMake command would try to find "" (empty
string) as executable
- Buildable with C++11 compilers (though deprecation warning-rich, due to
`unique_ptr`)
- several previously improperly handled include directories now actually
included in individual lib/CMakeLists

Catch more exceptions thrown by ConfigParser when reading corrupted grc.conf
files.

Fix the docstring update error for empty categories.

Fix grcc to call refactored GRC code.

Convert initially opened files to absolute paths to prevent attempting to read
from tmp.

Move startup checks back in to gnuradio-companion script from grc/checks.py.

### DTV

Fix a segfault that occurs from out-of-bounds access in
dvbt_bit_inner_interleaver forecast by forecasting an enumerated list of all
input streams.

Fix VL-SNR framing.

### Digital

Enable update rate in block_recovery_mm blocks to keep tags close to the the
proper clock-recovered sample time. Tag offsets will still be off between calls
to work, but each work call updates the tag rate.

### Analog

Fix the derivative calculation in fmdet block.

### Builds

Fix linking GSL to gr-fec.

Use gnu99 C standard rather than gnu11 standard to maintain support for GCC
4.6.3.

### Other

Minor spelling and documentation fixes.

Fix uhd_siggen_gui when using lo_locked.

Update to 3.7.8
USE_GCC=yes causes the build to fail on systems where clang and libc++ are
used by default (see bug 202143, for example). This essentially means
comms/gnuradio currently only builds on 9.x. The problem is caused by the
fact that on 10.x and later boost is likely built using clang and libc++,
but USE_GCC=yes forces gnuradio to be built with GCC and libstdc++. Ports
r392951 mentioned USE_GCC=yes was added because "clang's builtins were
conflicting with gnuradio", which does not seem to happen in my tests at least.

GRC Bus Ports (Nicholas McCarthy)

Bus ports in the GNU Radio Companion (GRC) allow ganging block input
or output ports into a single port for display and connections. This
simplifies flowgraph entry when dealing with blocks that work with an
arbitrary number of streams.

Release 3.6.3 is a significant release, adding major new
capabilities and many bug fixes, while maintaining strict source
compatibility with user code already written for the 3.6 API.

Much of the code was the result of two events, the September 2012 GNU
Radio conference in Atlanta, GA, and the November 2012 GNU Radio
hackfest held at Ettus Research in Mountain View, CA. Additional work
(not discussed here) from these events has been incorporated into the
'next' branch of the code repository, and will become part of the 3.7
API release series.

New features include asynchronous message passing between blocks, new
blocks for interfacing with operating system networking stacks, the
ability to write new signal processing blocks in Python, enhanced file
source and sinks that can store metadata, flowgraph latency control,
improvements to documentation, and further conversion of existing code
into the 3.7 API organization (while leaving existing blocks in
place.)

GNU Radio is a collection of software that when combined with
minimal hardware, allows the construction of radios where the
actual waveforms transmitted and received are defined by software.
What this means is that it turns the digital modulation schemes
used in today's high performance wireless devices into software problems.
