Re: [ns] using a modified ns-lib.tcl

[Di-Fa Chang <difac@usc.edu>]

Can you provide the diff file for the modified makefile?
Then other people can understand what you done.

Basically, you should modify the make file as follows:

$(GEN_DIR)ns_tcl.cc: $(NS_TCL_LIB)
        $(TCLSH) bin/tcl-expand.tcl /where/you/put/ns-lib.tcl
                                    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
$(NS_TCL_LIB_STL) | $(TCL2C) et_ns_lib > $@

And modify all source-commands in your ns-lib.tcl:

source /where/is/the/original/ns-autoconf.tcl
...
