This page summarizes the ongoing release planning for ns-3.16. The ns-3 release process is listed here and here.
Release schedule
- Wed Nov 21 -- new feature freeze
- keeping open for possible BRITE and LTE scheduler inclusion
- Fri Dec 7 -- code freeze on ns-3-dev
- Wed Dec 12 -- ns-3.16 released
Proposed supported platforms
- Linux Ubuntu 12.10
- Linux Fedora 17 (also 18 beta)
- Linux Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
- Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS
- Mac OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.2
- FreeBSD 9
- FreeBSD 8.2
Packaging
Source tarball ns-allinone-3.16.tar.bz2.
Tarball unpacks to ns-allinone-3.16 which contains, at top level:
bake bakefile.xml build.py doc generate-binary.py bakeconf.xml bake.py examples source test
The source/ directory contains:
click netanim nsc pybindgen gccxml-ns3 ns-3.16 openflow-ns3 pygccxml
The new user will either call 'build.py', which will be a wrapper around bake, or else directly call 'bake.py build' and will build all ns-3 components. From that point forward, the user may recurse into the ns-3.16 directory and work from there using ./waf as usual (if all work is ns-3-based and just uses the libraries such nsc and netanim built initially from build.py). If the user wants to work with additional packages (Direct Code Execution), he/she will reconfigure at the bake.py level and download additional components. If the user wants to edit or patch the ns-3 supporting modules (e.g. nsc or netanim) he/she will need to do more work at the bake level.
