NetAnim for ns-3.40 release

[Amit Jha]

Hello All, 

I was trying to run network animation using NetAnim in ns-3.40. However, I can't find any executable file in NetAnim 3.109. When I looked at https://www.nsnam.org/wiki/NetAnim , it is found that netanim 3.109 is compatible with ns3.38. Is it true that it can be used in ns 3.40 release? Or I am missing some points. 

Thanks in advance for the suggestions. 

Regards,

Amit

Thanks for pointing it out, the documentation page is misleading.

The 3.40 tarball (available here) contains the correct NetAnim version - which is 3.109. I.e., 3.109 works with ns-3.27 and following.

If we'll beak compatibility, we'll release an upgraded NetAnim version.

However, please note that there are some known bugs in NetAnim, so some features might not be perfect. E.g., on my computer the WiFi signals are not plotted, but I haven't got the time to debug it.

I updated it yesterday to indicate that version 3.109 works with ns-3.38
through the current release.
