#fldigi #hamlib Hamlib 4.6 not working #fldigi #hamlib

 

The current release of Hamlib is now version 4.6
?
fldigi hamlib control does not work with my Yaesu FT-890.
When I click Initialize, nothing happens and hamlib becomes unchecked.
Hamlib NET rigctl does work with my SDR.
?
The Yaesu FT-890 does work with Hamlib 4.5.5.
?
I tried fldigi 4.2.06 and fldigi 4.2.06.17
I am using a Raspberry Pi 5 and Dietpi debian bookworm. I?have a USB to RS232 cable.
?
 

Hamlib has recently reverted the change that broke fldigi hamlib control build with this comment:
Change rig_list_foreach back to using const argument -- was breaking many C++ application builds
?
I expect that this will fix fldigi hamlib control.

Hi Steve

It actually broke my fldigi/hamlib alpha builds. ie 4.2.06.18 and 19 now fails with Hamlib 4.7~git 2024-12-29T16:43:39Z SHA=028d75 64-bit (and later)

I compiled 4.2.06.17 with hamlib 4.6, which did not work, but it now works with hamlib 4.7.
?
It is apparent that he "fixed" fldigi 4.2.06.18 for hamlib 4.6.
?
Since the rig_caps variable is the source of the problem, fldigi 4.2.06.19 should build with hamlib 4.6.
?
Now flgidi has to decide whether or not to revert the hamlib changes, as hamlib will eventually make a new release with the rig_caps changes.
?
My fldigi 4.2.06.19 build is also failing because of rig_caps.
?
 

I reverted to hamlib 4.6 and successfully built fldigi 4.2.06.19. It works with my Yaesu FT-890.
?
I switched Hamlib back to version 4.7~git and fldigi 4.2.06.19 still works with my Yaesu FT-890.
?
This may be a workaround until a permanent fix is available.
?
 

Compiling fldigi with Hamlib 4.7~git may have been resolved.
?
On Jan 3, Hamlib made this change:
#define RIGCAPS_NOT_CONST 1
// As of 2025-01-03 removeing this -- fldigi was the only one that got it right
// riglist_foreach is now constant again but others are not
// #define RIGCAPS_NOT_CONST 1
?
RIGCAPS_NOT_CONST should be removed now because rig_caps has been reverted to type const.
This was still in place after rig_caps was reverted to type const, causing fldigi to fail.
?
I installed the latest Hamlib 4.7~git and reinstalled fldigi 4.2.06.19 successfully.
It is working and now listening to the ARRL RTTY roundup.

Thanks Steve

Did a git pull & build of 4.7 and 4.2.06.19 is now most happy!
