detailedDM doesn't work

["Sarah Liu" <softrel9@nortelnetworks.com>]

Hi, Shuqian:

Following your suggestion, I added the line to set PruneTimeout, but it
still doesn't work. I still got the following error messages. I just wonder
if I can modify somewhere in the detailedDM.tcl to make it runable for the
ns-2.1b5 instead of ns-2.1b4. Do you have any successful experience in that?

------------begin of error message----------------------
ns: _o13 new-group 0 32770 -1 cache-miss: _o10: unable to dispatch method
get-oifs
    while executing

    (procedure "_o13" line 3)
    (Classifier/Multicast new-group line 3)
    invoked from within
"_o13 new-group 0 32770 -1 cache-miss"

-------end of error message------------

Any help is highly appreciated.

cheers,

Sarah

Hi,

If I am not wrong, detailDM is not longer working under current version 
of ns.

As your error message indicates, there is no PruneTimeout value is 
defined, so you probably need to define this value explicitly in the 
simulation script, e.g. detailDM set PruneTimeout_ 0.5.

Hope it helps,
