/*!
 * \brief General FEC decoding block that takes in a decoder
 * variable object (derived from gr::fec::general_decoder) for use
 * in a flowgraph.
 *
 * \ingroup error_coding_blk
 *
 * \details
 * This block uses a decoder variable object (derived from
 * gr::fec::generic_decoder) to decode data within a
 * flowgraph. This block interacts with the general FECAPI
 * architecture to handle all passing all input and output data in
 * a flowgraph. The decoder variable takes care of understanding
 * the requirements, data types and sizes, and boundary conditions
 * of the specific FEC decoding algorithm.
 *
 * Generally, this block is used within the fec.extended_decoder
 * Python block to handle some input/output formatting issues. In
 * the FECAPI, the decoder variable sets properties like the input
 * and output types and sizes and whether the output is packed or
 * unpacked bytes. The fec.extended_decoder uses this information
 * to set up an gr::hier_block2 structure to make sure the I/O to
 * the variable is handled consistently, such as to make sure all
 * inputs are floats with one soft symbol per item and the outputs
 * are unpacked bytes with the bit in the LSB.
 *
 * See gr::fec::generic_decoder for detail on what information an
 * FECAPI variable object can set if using this block directly and
 * not as part of the fec.extended_decoder.
