traceConnectWithoutContext with application's tx

[Arthur Wulf White]

I have a BulkSendApplication and I want to count the packets going out..
I am doing this:

bulkapp->TraceConnectWithoutContext ("Tx", MakeCallback(&pktTrace));


This does not seem to work? What is the correct way to trace the outgoing traffic?

Thanks,

Arthur

What do you mean it does not work? Do you get an error or you do not get Tx triggered?

[Konstantinos]

What is bulkapp? Is it the application or the application helper? 

For example, in the /examples/tcp/tcp-bulk-send.cc I tested the code below (after the application is installed on node):

  Ptr<BulkSendApplication> app = DynamicCast<BulkSendApplication> (nodes.Get(0)->GetApplication(0));
  app->TraceConnectWithoutContext("Tx", MakeCallback(&TxTrace));

with

void TxTrace(Ptr<const Packet> p)
{
 NS_LOG_UNCOND("tx packet");
}

and it works without any problem.

Thanks!! I think I might had a tiny misunderstanding but this helped clear things up.
