The ns-3 Network Simulator Project
Set breakpoints at three places in star.cc and list all of them using gdb (GNU Debugger)
Set breakpoints at various places in a C++ program ‘star.cc’ using gdb (GNU Debugger). The program star.cc can be found in examples/tcp. Copy this program in scratch folder and follow the steps given below to start debugging a program using gdb in ns-3:
- Copy star.cc from examples/tcp to scratch
- Configure and build ns-3.
- Execute command: ./waf shell
- Execute command: gdb build/scratch/star
- Set breakpoints at line numbers 50, 70 and 80.
- List all breakpoints.
- Delete all breakpoints.
- List all breakpoints again. (Expected output: No breakpoints or watchpoints)
Provide the snapshots at each step for evaluation of the completed task.
