problem in installing "xgraph 12.1" in ubuntu 9.1 for ns 2.34
 

i have following problem in installing xgraph...

neeraj@ubuntu:~/ns-allinone-2.34/xgraph-12.1$ make
gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I. -I. -g -c xgraph.c
xgraph.c: In function ‘Traverse’:

Xgraph is not considered important, that's why " ./install "
just ignores it by errors. ( xgraph files = 9 years old.)
It may be possible to compile it, by using the Ubuntu patch ?
http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/xgraph
[xgraph_12.1-11.diff.gz]

But much easier is :

sudo apt-get install xgraph ygraph

'ygraph' is a modern, more advanced tool ..
http://packages.ubuntu.com/karmic/ygraph
.....

use gnuplot, instead of xgraph. gnuplot works fine.

problem in DSR ....
 

When i run AODV tcl script aodv.tcl then it runs quite successfully , it draws xgraph for packet drop and packet received as well , but when i run DSR script dsr.tcl then it will just run nam editor but not draws the xgraph b/w the same.

now when i use aodv code with change in one line that is :

"set val(rp) dsr" in place of "set val(rp) AODV" which is routing protocol

then again this does not draw that graph.

which means ... as i conclude problem is not in my code , problem is with the implementation of DSR routing protocol.

now anyone can help me out with that problem.???

Anyone is there to help me out ???

I doubt my rather late reply would help your cause. In any case, here's a solution to your problem.

On line numbers 780 and 899 of dialog.c, change getline to something else (say, newgetline) and try compiling again. It should work.
