16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	16	ns-3 is an evolving system and there will be API or behavioral changes
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	17	from time to time. Users who try to use scripts or models across
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	18	versions of ns-3 may encounter problems at compile time, run time, or
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	19	may see the simulation output change. </p>
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	20	<p>
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	21	We have adopted the development policy that we are going to try to ease
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	22	the impact of these changes on users by documenting these changes in a
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	23	single place (this file), and not by providing a temporary or permanent
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	24	backward-compatibility software layer. </p>
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	25	<p>
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	26	The goal is that users who encounter a problem when trying to use older
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	27	code with newer code should be able to consult this file to find
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	28	guidance as to how to fix the problem. For instance, if a method name
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	29	or signature has changed, it should be stated what the new replacement
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	30	name is. </p>
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	31	<p>
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	32	Note that users who upgrade the simulator across versions, or who work
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	33	directly out of the development tree, may find that simulation output
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	34	changes even when the compilation doesn't break, such as when a
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	35	simulator default value is changed. Therefore, it is good practice for
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	36	_anyone_ using code across multiple ns-3 releases to consult this file,
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	37	as well as the RELEASE_NOTES, to understand what has changed over time.

16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	40	This file is a best-effort approach to solving this issue; we will do
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	41	our best but can guarantee that there will be things that fall through
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	42	the cracks, unfortunately. If you, as a user, can suggest improvements
16005bad2e0b Add CHANGES.html Tom Henderson <tomh@tomh.org> parents: diff changeset	43	to this file based on your experience, please contribute a patch or drop
