Hi All,

I want to peek the header information in my main script so i used
----
WifiMacHeader hdrPeek;
packet->PeekHeader (hdrPeek);
std::cout << "Addr1 = " <<hdrPeek.GetAddr1 () << std::endl;
----
and included thef
----
#include "ns3/wifi-mac-header.h"
----

However, the compiler complains the ns3/wifi-mac-header.h can not be
found!
Did i forget anything in my setting?

Many thanks!

Best,
Scott

That header is not public by default (i.e., it is considered a private
implementation detail of the wifi code) but you can easily make it
public by modifying src/devices/wifi/wscript:
headers = bld.create_obj('ns3header')
headers.module = 'wifi'
headers.source = [
'propagation-delay-model.h'
'wifi-mac-header.h'
...
]

and then, re-running waf which will 'install' the file, that is, copy
this file in build/debug/ns3/

hope this helps,
Mathieu
