[ndnSIM] [EXT] A question about ndn examples testing

[Sirapop Theeranantachai]

Hi Yitong,

Let me explain briefly about what is happening during the installation.
ndnSIM is an external module for ns-3. When you run the installation
script, it pulls a patched version of ns-3, and then place the actual
ndnSIM module inside ns-3 as /src/ndnSIM.

When you want to run something, you would want to run it in ns-3 (not in
the src folder). Normally, you wouldn't need to modify the wscript file if
you place your codes in the /scratch folder. According to the root wscript (
https://github.com/named-data-ndnSIM/ns-3-dev/blob/1b3bab9b6dba5f1e616c0b286eb889e9ce3d5d59/wscript#L1034),
it will add files with extension ".cc".

If your code does not end with .cc, you should rename it. If your code base
is not a single file, you need create a folder inside /scratch to add your
program as a folder. If nothing works, let me know or try tinkering with
wscript. It's written in Python.

Good luck!
Mark
