Destructor implementation.

This method is called by Dispose() or by the Object's destructor, whichever comes first.

Subclasses are expected to implement their real destruction code in an overridden version of this method and chain up to their parent's implementation once they are done. i.e, for simplicity, the destructor of every subclass should be empty and its content should be moved to the associated DoDispose() method.

It is safe to call GetObject() from within this method.

◆ Receive()

void ns3::ApWifiMac::Receive ( Ptr< WifiMacQueueItem mpdu)

This method acts as the MacRxMiddle receive callback and is invoked to notify us that a frame has been received.

The implementation is intended to capture logic that is going to be common to all (or most) derived classes. Specifically, handling of Block Ack management frames is dealt with here.

This method will need, however, to be overridden by derived classes so that they can perform their data handling before invoking the base version.

Parameters
mpduthe MPDU that has been received.
