Yes, I recompiled all, but I think I resolved after working on it for the
whole day: For some strange reason, it didn't work because I was using a
symbolic link to launch nse.
Now it's ok, I can get the coordinates, but if I call setdest on the node,
and I call getx some time later, I still get the old static coordinates
while I need the position of the node at the time when I call the command.
Thanks for answer ;)

Hi,
I don't know for sure but, did you recomplie the code?

Hi all
I have a wireless scenario and I need to get the position of a mobile node
through the TCL script and not in C++ as I've seen in many mailing list
answers.
I'm still wondering why nobody implemented a method in tcl to GET the
co-ordinates (is it so unuseful?) in the official versions of ns-2, so I
decided to write it on my own with the help of the messages I found here in
the mailing list, with no success.
First try: editing mobilenode.cc adding code like this:
[...]
} else if (strcmp(argv[1], "getx") == 0) {
Tcl& tcl = Tcl::instance();
tcl.resultf("%f", X_);
return TCL_OK;
}
[...]
And so on for y and z.
It doesn't work... After I recompiled the code, I tried to get the x value
like this:
set x [$node1 getx]
But I get an error... It seems that the command "getx" doesn't exist...
Where's the mistake?
Second try: editing ns-mobilenode.tcl adding:
[...]
Node/MobileNode instproc getX {} {
$self instvar X_
return $X_
}
[...]
And so on for y and z.
Here comes the funny thing: it seems that ns-2 simply ignores this file..
even editing the existing functions contained here I get always the same
results (for example removing all the content of a function, I should have a
function that does nothing, and I get a function that does the original
instructions instead...)
Is there a kind user that faced this problem before and could help me?
Thanks in advance
