Nano-sim by telematics

[Kemal Kilic]

Hello Folks,

Having trouble with nano-sim package.

I tried to follow the compiling instructions on http://telematics.poliba.it/index.php/en/nano-sim

I also tried to compile it with ns-3.25 and ns-3.26 getting errors (I attached the text file for full messages):

I am using 64 bit openSUSE linux and gcc version 6.2.1

Do not know what is the problem: gcc version? 64-32 bit OS issue? ns-3 version?

Anybody who was able to compile nano-sim package?

If so please send me the version of gcc, your system, and the version of the ns-3 you have used.

All the best...

Hi,

it's a "simple" problem of using an outdated API.

In the code (everywhere), stuff like

    .AddTraceSource ("outTX",  "outTX",  MakeTraceSourceAccessor (&MessageProcessUnit::m_outTX))

should look more like

    .AddTraceSource ("outTX",  "outTX",  MakeTraceSourceAccessor (&MessageProcessUnit::m_outTX), "ns3::Whatever::Something")

where ns3::Whatever::Something is a typedef defining the type of the callback.

As an example

TypeId
UdpSocketImpl::GetTypeId (void)
{
  static TypeId tid = TypeId ("ns3::UdpSocketImpl")
    .SetParent<UdpSocket> ()
    .SetGroupName ("Internet")
    .AddConstructor<UdpSocketImpl> ()
    .AddTraceSource ("Drop",
                     "Drop UDP packet due to receive buffer overflow",
                     MakeTraceSourceAccessor (&UdpSocketImpl::m_dropTrace),
                     "ns3::Packet::TracedCallback")
    .AddAttribute ("IcmpCallback", "Callback invoked whenever an icmp error is received on this socket.",
                   CallbackValue (),
                   MakeCallbackAccessor (&UdpSocketImpl::m_icmpCallback),
                   MakeCallbackChecker ())
    .AddAttribute ("IcmpCallback6", "Callback invoked whenever an icmpv6 error is received on this socket.",
                   CallbackValue (),
                   MakeCallbackAccessor (&UdpSocketImpl::m_icmpCallback6),
                   MakeCallbackChecker ())
  ;
  return tid;
}

and in packet.h there is

  /**
   * TracedCallback signature for Ptr<Packet>
   *
   * \param [in] packet The packet.
   */
  typedef void (* TracedCallback) (Ptr<const Packet> packet);

The signature is used to check the consistency between callbacks.

I'd also suggest to get in touch with the module authors and ask them to upgrade their module.

Cheers,

T.

   How can you find that it should be  "ns3::Packet::TracedCallback"?

   I mean what was the clue in the code above that you have chosen packet.h?

   Did you use any special tool to find out class hierarchies?

   If my questions sound stupid, sorry, I am not a great C++ expert :(

If you only at least one time today, you have made God smile, then the day is a gain for you.

Otherwise keep on smiling, tomorrow is another day, another chance!!!

Tommaso is pointing out that nanosim needs to be updated to work with newer ns-3 versions. The example he gave, UdpSocketImpl, shows illustrates the use of the callback typedef string.

To discover the signature required for any callback, just look at the API docs, for example
https://www.nsnam.org/doxygen/classns3_1_1_udp_socket_impl.html#details

Look at the TraceSources section.

In general to see the inheritance tree open the Inheritance Diagram at the top of API docs page for the class.

Hello Folks,

Finally I was able to compile and try examples of nano-sim.

I used ns-3 version 3.19 and used 

CXXFLAGS="-Wall" ./waf configure

other wise by default every warning was breaking compile.

Now it remains to see what was bad in 3.19.

same trick does not work 3.26 (current release.)

Hope that some body will fix nano-sim soon...

Cheers...

Hello,
    Can you please suggest how to run the healthcare.cc file in netanim3.104.
I am able to run the code in ns3.19 but I'm not aware of how to link it to the netanim.
Please help
kga.

[Konstantinos]

Have you studied how NetAnim works?

Thank you so much for your post and the solution. I was having the same trouble because of using ns-3.25. struggled so long with no working solution. using 3.19 worked for me too. Thanks a lot again.

Hi everyone,
Can any one contact with module author because is not good idea to work with older version of ns3 even it is the solution.
I have already send an email but I didn't get any reply yet and I am beginner ,if I have the experience I will edit it.
May be the editing in the module will make it work with the newest version of ns3.
If any one have the ability and the experience to help please help.

[Kemal Kilic]

Hello there!

Yes the nanosim package is troublesome and the author does not respond!

It is already dead now!

But if you think it is worth the effort:

I was able to use it with ns3 version 3.20

Editing the module for new ns3 can be the best but I guess need so much expertise.

Attached are the instructions for Ubuntu linux

Also the patch for gccxml (just for Ubuntu).

I tried it for 16.04

At that time gccxml needed to be patched.

I personally use it under openSUSE. 

without patching the gccxml

Please note that you need max version NS3 version 3.20  (some cases 3.21)

I guess they designed it for 3.19

All the best...
