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

6032 a31949e0f1ed update CHANGES.html Craig Dowell <craigdo@ee.washington.edu> parents: 6018 diff changeset	388	The internet stack helper has been extensively massaged to make it easier to
a31949e0f1ed update CHANGES.html Craig Dowell <craigdo@ee.washington.edu> parents: 6018 diff changeset	389	manage traces originating from protocols. It used to be the case that there
a31949e0f1ed update CHANGES.html Craig Dowell <craigdo@ee.washington.edu> parents: 6018 diff changeset	390	was essentially no opportunity to filter tracing on interfaces, and resulting
a31949e0f1ed update CHANGES.html Craig Dowell <craigdo@ee.washington.edu> parents: 6018 diff changeset	391	trace file names collided with those created by devices. File names are now
a31949e0f1ed update CHANGES.html Craig Dowell <craigdo@ee.washington.edu> parents: 6018 diff changeset	392	disambiguated and one can enable traces on a protocol/interface basis analogously

92c388406dbe update CHANGES ns-3.7 to ns-3.8 Craig Dowell <craigdo@ee.washington.edu> parents: 5868 diff changeset	396	been developed to hold streams for ascii traces.<br>
6032 a31949e0f1ed update CHANGES.html Craig Dowell <craigdo@ee.washington.edu> parents: 6018 diff changeset	397	New functionality is present for ascii traces. It is now possible to create

This makes it now possible to correctly calculate the duration of incoming frames in scenarios in which devices using different PHY configurations coexist in the same channel (e.g., a BSS using short preamble and another BSS using long preamble). </p>

3ebeb7bf3c15 added support for radiotap and prism headers Nicola Baldo <nbaldo@cttc.es> parents: 4475 diff changeset	877	To accommodate support for the radiotap and prism headers in PCAP traces, the interface for promiscuos mode sniff in the wifi device was changed. The new implementation was heavily inspired by the way the madwifi driver handles monitor mode. A distinction between TX and RX events is introduced, to account for the fact that different information is to be put in the radiotap/prism header (e.g., RSSI and noise make sense only for RX packets). The following are the relevant modifications to the WifiPhy class:
