Hi,

  I read TEP 119 (Collection) which says:

An implementation of this TEP (i.e. TEP119) can be found in tinyos-2.x/tos/lib/net/ctp and tinyos-2.x/tos/lib/net/le, in the CTP protocol. ........ This implementation is a reference implementation, and is not the only possibility. It consists of three major components, which are wired together to form a CollectionC: LinkEstimatorP, CtpTreeRoutingEngineP, and CtpForwardingEngineP.

Thus, if my assumption that CollectionC is "made up" from ctp and link estimator is right, why does the MViz application also "use" CtpP when it has already "used" CollectionC. I'm sorry if this question is unclear, but I really don't know how to put it well, 'coz when I compared it to the MultihopOscilloscope application, it simply defines CollectionC to do its routing and sending of data packets.

If you look how MViz wires to CTP, it only accesses the CtpInfo interface, which gives routing information. This is how MViz reports link qualities. Note, for example, the MultihopOscilloscope doesn't, because it only sends data and doesn't need internal routing state.
