How to add Multiple protocol patches for ns2 2.35 in same directory ?

I want more protocols than the default protocols provided in ns2.Already patch ns2 2.35 with olsr protocol now i want to patch ns2 with ZRP,CBRP protocols

How to add new protocols to the existing ones ?
Do i have to patch the ns2 individually for every patch?

Why do you want all the extra protocols in the same ns-2.35/ ?
You can have as many ns-allinone-2.xx as you want, installed at the same time.
But : Do not add any *PATH text to .bashrc : Not required.

Some extra protocols will conflict.
OLSR + ZRP + CBRP might be possible.

P.S. :
You can find the current patches with multiple extra protocols here
https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...00?usp=sharing

And https://drive.google.com/file/d/12OS...ew?usp=sharing
→ /usr/local/bin/{ 92 executable 'ns*' }

Why do you want all the extra protocols in the same ns-2.35/ ?

I want to compare their performance for a certain scenario

You can have as many ns-allinone-2.xx as you want, installed at the same time.

Does that mean i can install two ns2 2.35 in different directories with different patches ?

if it so , then how i give the terminal command to execute the tcl files?

just typing ns filename.tcl would be enough?

Re #3

As you can see from https://drive.google.com/file/d/12OS...ew?usp=sharing
... I currently have ~90 different ns-allinone-2.xx in use, mostly 64bit.
( When ns2 was used most a few years ago I had ~200 32bits installs.)
( Space used for every "cleaned ns-allinone-2" is about 10MB.)
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1g33...ew?usp=sharing

So you can easily have a few. ... Example

Code:

/home/name/ns2/cbrp/ns-allinone-2.35/

/home/name/ns2/olsr/ns-allinone-2.35/

/home/name/ns2/zrp/ns-allinone-2.35/

If you want to simulate with "multiple protocol node-config":
... I can create a patch with the extra protocols, if no conflicts.
Example: "zrp+cbrp_for-OLSR-patched_ns235.patch".

Space used for every "cleaned ns-allinone-2" is about 10MB. that's a good idea :)

ns2 is a 32 bit software right ? then how can you use 64 bit installs?

when i try to patch ns2 2.35 (after clean install of ns2 2.35 ubuntu mate 16.04 64 bits)for cbrp protocol

i use the CBRP+LTE_ns235.patch

and followed these commands

cd /home/arone/programs/ns-allinone-2.35

i already copy patch to ns-allinone-2.35

patch -p0 < CBRP+LTE_ns235.patch

then

sudo ./install

but it gives the errors like this in terminal. what should i do ?? what's the mistake i made ?

Re #5. Please put the error output in code Tags :

ns2 : Most protocols can run with a 64bits OS.
A few of the older protocols can only use a 32bits OS.
Not all simulations can run with a 64bits OS: A 32bits executable ns* is required.
But usually no problem, as the 32bits application packages can be installed to the 64bits OS https://drive.google.com/drive/folde...FE?usp=sharing

About the CBRP errors : The old cbrp code must be compiled with g++34.

Code:

tar xvf ns-allinone-2.35_gcc5.tar.gz

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7S...ew?usp=sharing

cd ns-allinone-2.35/

patch -p0 < CBRP+LTE_ns235.patch

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7S...ew?usp=sharing

./install

                      // Stops with error in ns-2.35/cbrp/*

cd ns-2.35/    

                      // Edit the Makefile line 37 to CPP    = g++34

make

                      // Stops with errors. Edit the Makefile to g++

make



cp ns ns235-cbrp-lte

sudo cp ns235-cbrp-lte /usr/local/bin/

Links to gcc34, g++34 (gcc-3.4.6) : When you specify your Ubuntu 16.04:
Is the OS 32 or 64bits ?

Note : It's './install', not 'sudo ./install' → sudo will change the permissions!

Links to gcc34, g++34 (gcc-3.4.6) : is the links are missing ??

when i install the old gcc does it cause conflicts with other software ?

Re #7.

You will get link information when you tell if your Ubuntu 16.04 is 32 or 64bits (i386 or amd64).

This command will reply with i686 or x86_64 :
$ uname -m

You can have as many gcc versions as you want installed at the same time.

Default Ubuntu 16.04 gcc / g++ :
g++ (=g++-5.4.0), g++-4.7, g++-4.8, g++-4.9

i already mention its 64 bit , when i edited post #5 i also included it

i use ubuntu 16.04 64 bit version

cp ns ns235-cbrp-lte
sudo cp ns235-cbrp-lte /usr/local/bin/

above two steps are necessary ?

// Stops with errors. Edit the Makefile to g++
make

after make command do i have to type ./install again ?? or cbrp already installed ???

Re #9. See #6.

The text says
./install
$ cd ns-2.35/
.... edit Makefile
$ make
.... edit Makefile
$ make

Quote:

or cbrp already installed ???

Nothing gets installed.
That's what you do with $ sudo cp ns235-cbrp-lte /usr/local/bin/

"./install" is the build command.
Meant to take care of all ./configure and 'make'.

Thank you for your help,can i get get some cbrp specific examples?
