Cannot find header files when building

[arthur Silva Matias]

Hello everyone,

When I try to build a copy of ofswitch13-external-controller.cc in examples

the following appears:

Did i do something wrong when installing ofswitch13?

Thanks for your time.

Hi all,

I'm aware of this issue. It's related to the way cmake handles the include dirs to the bofuss external library. I'm currently working on a fix to it.

In the meantime, you can do the following to have OFSwitch13 working (assuming you are using ns-3.37 and OFSwitch13 5.1.0):

- Clone the bofuss library (git clone https://github.com/ljerezchaves/ofsoftswitch13.git) repository anywhere on your computer, as long as it is outside the ns-3 folder.

- Checkout the library code to v5.1.x tag (git checkout v5.1.x), configure and compile it (./boot.sh && ./configure --enable-ns3-lib && make)

- Edit the CMakeList.txt on the OFSwitch13 directory, commenting out the lines 135 -- 139 and 150.

- Configure the ns-3 simulator, setting the NS3_OFSWITCH13_BOFUSS_PATH to the path where you've cloned the boffus library (./ns3 configure -- -DNS3_OFSWITCH13_BOFUSS_PATH=<path-to-bofuss>)

- Compile the simulator again (./ns3 build) and I hope everything works out.

Cheers,

Hi,

With the release of new OFSwitch13 versions, these issues are now fixed (hope so!)

Please, check OFSwitch13 release 5.2.1 (https://github.com/ljerezchaves/ofswitch13/releases/tag/5.2.0) for ns-3.36 and ns-3.37, or OFSwitch13 release 5.2.1 (https://github.com/ljerezchaves/ofswitch13/releases/tag/5.2.1) for ns-3.38.

The documentation (Section 2.1) instructs on how to build the module, as external library dependency are handle automatically now.

Cheers,

Luciano.
