GNU Radio 3.8 support for gr-sqlite

[mikotaFull]

Hello,
I would like to know if it is already possible to use gr-sqlite in gnuradio 3.8.
If it is not possible please can you give me a hint on how to get the demodulated data in binary or hexadecimal format?
According to the source code the data is in the variable "vector" but I really don't know how I can display its content.

Thank you and have a nice day.

Are you trying to use this OOT module with gr-adsb? What are you trying to do exactly? Get the raw, live demodulated data from the ADS-B Demodulator block? Also where are you trying to use the demodulated data? In the GNU Radio flowgraph or in a separate Python script?

Hello and thank you for answering;
yes, I want to use this module with gr-adsb, in fact I have already installed gr-adsb but in gnuradio 3.8. All the blocks appear except the sqlite one.
What I want is to get the demodulated data in binary format, then I will calculate the BER with respect to the ADS-B data before the modulation.
Once I have the demodulated data I was thinking of writing a python script to calculate the BER.

To be clearer, what I am trying to do is to get the ADS-B packet in binary format and save it in a file or a Database.

So you'd like the SQLite Sink to store all the demodulated burst data and then postprocess later in Python?

Currently, I haven't ported this OOT module to GNU Radio 3.8. For gr-adsb I believe I used a tool / script provided by GNU Radio to upgrade OOT modules and then manually tweaked the block .yml file. I'm not sure I have a valid GNU Radio environment currently. I might be able to re-establish it and try this port, then maybe you could test it. Otherwise, I'm open to pull requests to add this feature.

@mikotaFull you should be able to save the demodulated data to a file as the OOT module exists currently. See this discussion.
