Detailed Description

Protocol header serialization and deserialization.

Every Protocol header which needs to be inserted or removed from a Packet instance must derive from this base class and implement the pure virtual methods defined here.

Sample code which shows how to create a new type of Header, and how to use it, is shown in the sample file samples/main-packet-header.cc

Member Function Documentation

virtual uint32_t ns3::Header::Deserialize ( Buffer::Iterator  start  )  [pure virtual]
Parameters:
start an iterator which points to where the header should written.
Returns:
the number of bytes read.

This method is used by Packet::RemoveHeader to re-create a header from the byte buffer of a packet. The data read is expected to match bit-for-bit the representation of this header in real networks.

Implements ns3::Chunk.

virtual uint32_t ns3::Header::GetSerializedSize ( void   )  const [pure virtual]
Returns:
the expected size of the header.

This method is used by Packet::AddHeader to store a header into the byte buffer of a packet. This method should return the number of bytes which are needed to store the full header data by Serialize.

virtual void ns3::Header::Print ( std::ostream &  os  )  const [pure virtual]
Parameters:
os output stream This method is used by Packet::Print to print the content of a trailer as ascii data to a c++ output stream. Although the trailer is free to format its output as it wishes, it is recommended to follow a few rules to integrate with the packet pretty printer: start with flags, small field values located between a pair of parens. Values should be separated by whitespace. Follow the parens with the important fields, separated by whitespace. i.e.: (field1 val1 field2 val2 field3 val3) field4 val4 field5 val5
