And since you don't actually tell us what error(s)/message(s) you're getting, what version/distro of Linux you're using, or provide ANY useful details, there is nothing we can tell you.

Read the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature.

Post the error messages, please...those screen shots are hard/impossible to read. And both Ubuntu 12.04 and NS2 are VERY old....

@lemowa : Welcome to LQ.

The file ``bmac.h´´ is incomplete.
Missing parts can be copied from smac.h to bmac.h, line 310 ...

Code:

// -----------------------------------------------------
// Used by bmac when in sync mode
struct SchedTable { 
  int txSync;  // flag indicating need to send sync 
  int txData;  // flag indicating need to send data 
  int numPeriods; // count for number of periods 
#ifdef JOURNAL_PAPER
  int numNodes;  // number of nodes on this schedule
  int syncNode;  // the node who initialized this schedule
  int chkSched; // flag indicating need to check numNodes
#endif
};

struct NeighbList { 
  int nodeId; 
  int schedId;
#ifdef JOURNAL_PAPER
  int active; //flag indicating the node is active recently
  int state; // flag indicating the node has changed schedule
#endif 
};

// ------------------------------------------------------

The new bmac.h https://www.dropbox.com/s/yw1pfsdvgyisgdj/bmac.h?dl=0

The complete changes : bmac_ns235.patch
The BMAC example ns-2.35/2-wireless-demo-csci694-bmac.tcl is included in the patch
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7S...ew?usp=sharing
and https://www.dropbox.com/s/fvaro80fqh...235.patch?dl=0

Build example ...

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 < bmac_ns235.patch
./install
cd ns-2.35/
cp ns ns235-bmac
sudo cp ns235-bmac /usr/local/bin/

Thanks knudfl patch already works well, but what makes the difference between smac and bmac if bmac.h copied from smac.h?

knudfl · 09-18-2017, 05:10 PM

Re #6.

smac.h is different from bmac.h ,
and smac.cc is different from bmac.cc

C++ files are text files. Please read the files.
And you can run the 'diff' command to know the differences :

Code:

diff -dbBwaur smac.h bmac.h

diff -dbBwaur smac.cc bmac.cc

... The thing is that some of the definitions are general.
Hence the re-use of the `SchedTable´ and `NeighbList´ definitions.

P.S. : Please do not quote entire posts. A "one word reference" will do.

@knudfl i think it's same, because when i run simulation for search energy with same scenario the result it's same for smac and bmac

it's still no patch RIMAC for NS2.35?, because it's hard for install ns2.29
but thanks knudfl i will try it
