Problems with WifiChannel

[Ignasi]

Hi all,

I'm new to ns-3 and C++. I've installed ns-3 and read the tutorial.
Now I wanted to start understanding an old program which worked on
ns-3.2 but it fails on ns-3.9. I supose there have been some changes
in wifi channels but i don't know where to look for them. Could you
help me?

this is the code:

//
#include "ns3/core-module.h"
#include "ns3/common-module.h"
#include "ns3/simulator-module.h"
#include "ns3/node-module.h"

Could you tell me how to start to solve this errors?

Thank you very much

You really need to first learn C++ and your compiler output. NS3 is
not a good starting point for learning C++ as there are too many NS3-
specific "magic" behind the scenes.

The NS3 Manual and the Doxygen documentation should contain required
info regarding the current way of doing things with NS3. You can also
use the example code provided with NS3. NS-3.2 is over 2 years old and
a lot have changed (2878 changesets, each may contain many changes)
since then. You would be better off using the current example programs
as your base.

Hello everybody,

Could anybody tell me how many routing protocols are plugged into NS3. Like in NS2 five protocols are there including AODV,DSDV, DSR, TORA ....
it will be highly appreciated. thanks.
