Re: metric? procedure

Hello,

My question to the ns-users newgroup on Nov.23 was about metric? procedure 
that exists in  rtObject class but not in RouteLogic class.

Kannan answered how to get metric function for the static routing:

I havent't succeeded to manage this. Do I get metric between given source "i"  
and destination "j"  with  hopcnt_(INDEX(i, j, size_))? Where I can read  the 
right value of hopcnt_ (that represents metric) in the 
RouteLogic::compute_routes() function? If I read the hopcnt_ at the end of the 
function (before it is originally destroyed) I got that the metric is always 
INFINITY.
 
Kannan could you please help me?
 
Thanks in advance,
