Post header metadata as a PMT. In a sense, this is the inverse block to packet_headergenerator_bb. The difference is, the parsed header is not output as a stream, but as a PMT dictionary, which is published to message port with the id "header_data". The dictionary consists of the tags created by the header formatter object. You should be able to use the exact same formatter object as used on the Tx side in the packet_headergenerator_bb. If only a header length is given, this block uses the default header format.
This is the template for the [[:Category:Block_Docs|"Page-per-block Docs"]]. This first section should describe what the block does and how to use it, using however many paragraphs necessary. Note that the title of the wiki page should match the block's name in GRC, i.e. the one defined in the block's .grc file.  Look at the [[FFT]] Block for a good example.
 
As this is a basic template, it's also in the [[:Category:Stub_Docs|"Stub Docs category"]]. Please improve it.

Post header metadata as a PMT. In a sense, this is the inverse block to packet_headergenerator_bb. The difference is, the parsed header is not output as a stream, but as a PMT dictionary, which is published to message port with the id "header_data". The dictionary consists of the tags created by the header formatter object. You should be able to use the exact same formatter object as used on the Tx side in the packet_headergenerator_bb. If only a header length is given, this block uses the default header format.

Parameters

Header Length
Length Tag Name

Example Flowgraph

Insert description of flowgraph here, then show a screenshot of the flowgraph and the output if there is an interesting GUI. Currently we have no standard method of uploading the actual flowgraph to the wiki or git repo, unfortunately. The plan is to have an example flowgraph showing how the block might be used, for every block, and the flowgraphs will live in the git repo.
