using handlePositionUpdate for RSU unit

[Milica Milojevic]

Hi all,

I am using Veins-3.0 version where RSU units are embedded. Is it possible to use handlePositionUpdate function from BaseWaveAppLayer (like in TraCIDemo11p), since TraCIDemoRSU11p class is derived from this class? If not, what  other function can I use as the one which will be called every update interval?

Thank you,
Milica

RSUs are not subject to position updates, so (if I recall correctly) the
handlePositionUpdate method will not be called.

If you want to call a method every, e.g., 100ms, you will need to let
the module schedule a `self message' every 100ms, just like in the
TicToc tutorial. I'm afraid I do not know of an easier way.


Best,

Christoph
