[ndnSIM] Another Question: set priority of a node

[Alex Afanasyev]

Hi Aaron,

It is possible, but would require a number of tweakings.  There are several alternatives, but I would do it in the following name:

1. Create a class derived from Object, say "PriorityModel", which will store priority value and have getters/setters for it.
2. Modify AnnotatedTopologyReader class.  In particular, you would need to modify Read field and modify CreateNode methods.  You can actually modify just CreateNode methods, since they already assume that there could be an extra column (this was defined for network partition number to use for distributed simulation, but if you're not using this feature, you can redefine the meaning).

In CreateNode methods you would need to CreateObject<PriorityModel> with you priority and then aggregate the created object to Node object, same way mobility model object is aggregated.


After this, you will be able to use this->GetObject<PriorityModel>()->getPriority()  from anywhere of ForwardinStrategy class to get your priority.
