Re: [ns] Changing the sources file

[Mubashir Rehmani]

Hi Faraz,

You need to recompile ns2, so that the changes taken into effect by using

make clean
make
sudo make install

Moreover, it may happen that the printf that you inserted may not be
encountered by the program pointer. I mean, you need to put prinft in the
appropriate position of the mac protocol (cf. the pdf below for mac).

Hope it helps

[ns] Changing the sources file

[Syed Faraz Hasan]

Hi NS2 Users,

I am trying to make some changes in the NS2 source files, attempting to modify 
the scan procedure in the 802.11 network simulations. I added an extra "printf" 
command in the mac/mac-802_11.cc and saved the changes. When I am running the 
tcl code for 802.11 infrastructure networks, it is not printing the extra 
message. This was just a simple check to see if the changes are working but it 
failed.
Can anyone tell me how a source file is changed in NS2?

Thanks,
Faraz
