[Imran Ahmed]

Dear NS3 Gurus,

I am working on my master thesis at IDSIA Switzerland. I have ns-3.13 distribution, everything working fine, but I have big problem with visualizer. I try this things in my script but not working here is the detail.

System Ubuntu 11.10. What I tried. with 

CommandLine cmd;

   cmd.Parse (argc, argv);

1. case;

#include "ns3/pyviz.h"  and include the {PyViz v;} 

Error:

/home/imran/NS3Simulator/ns-3.13/build/../scratch/myfirst.cc:31: undefined reference to `ns3::PyViz::PyViz()'

/home/imran/NS3Simulator/ns-3.13/build/../scratch/myfirst.cc:31: undefined reference to `ns3::PyViz::~PyViz()'

collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

even I have this #include "ns3/visualizer-module.h"

2.case;

If comment on on {Pyvis v;} then this Error.

assert failed. cond="uid != 0", msg="Assert in TypeId::LookupByName: ns3::VisualSimulatorImpl not found", file=../src/core/model/type-id.cc, line=388

Command ['/home/imran/NS3Simulator/ns-3.13/build/scratch/myfirst', '--SimulatorImplementationType=ns3::VisualSimulatorImpl'] terminated with signal SIGSEGV. Run it under a debugger to get more information (./waf --run <program> --command-template="gdb --args %s <args>").

3.case; actually this is above one. I just go to the src/visualizer  and see the example where its written: " For activating the visualizer, with any example, just pass the option

--SimulatorImplementationType=ns3::VisualSimulatorImpl to it, assuming the script uses ns-3's command line parser (class CommandLine)." but same case 2 error.

./waf --run myfirst --SimulatorImplementationType=ns3::VisualSimulatorImpl not working. Even inside the quotes.

I have all this instruction which are presented on "http://www.nsnam.org/wiki/index.php/PyViz".

My ns-3.13 actuall installation were on ubuntu 11.04 and last night I just updated to 11.10. It perfectly working with my old work, but that time I did not try the visualizer, I think this will not make the big difference.

The script I am using is from examples  first.cc, which I had copied in Scratch with new name.

I will salute your kind efforts.

Cheers,

Ahmed

Can you confirm that the visualizer module is being built when you build
ns-3? Can you try to first run a visualizer program (already in
ns-3.13) and see if that works?

I am getting error (python 2.7) while running PyViz. I am using ns-3.14.1 on ubuntu 12.04 (64 bit). I have followed all the instructions for installing ns3 and PyViz. After the build gets over, I can see Visualize module being built.

1. Is this module PyViz?

2. How to run visualizer program already present in ns3?

Thanking you all.
