Constructor & Destructor Documentation

NicEntry::NicEntry (  bool  debug  )  [inline]

Constrcutor, initializes all members. Todo: initialize position!

Member Function Documentation

const cGate* NicEntry::getOutGateTo (  int  to  )  [inline]

Called by P2PPhyLayer. Needed to send a packet directly to a certain nic without other nodes 'hearing' it. This is only useful for physical layers that work with bit error probability like P2PPhyLayer. Parameters: to  id of the nic to which the packet is about to be sent

Member Data Documentation

GateList NicEntry::outConns [protected]

Outgoing connections of this nic. This map stores all connection for this nic to other nics The first entry is the module id of the nic the connection is going to and the second the gate to send the msg to
