Detailed Description

Test class for the application layer.

In this implementation all nodes randomly send broadcast packets to all connected neighbors. Every node who receives this packet will send a reply to the originator node.

void TestApplLayer::handleLowerMsg ( cMessage * msg ) [protected, virtual]

Handle messages from lower layer.

There are two kinds of messages that can arrive at this module: The first (kind = BROADCAST_MESSAGE) is a broadcast packet from a neighbor node to which we have to send a reply. The second (kind = BROADCAST_REPLY_MESSAGE) is a reply to a broadcast packet that we have send and just causes some output before it is deleted

Reimplemented from BaseApplLayer.

Reimplemented in BurstApplLayerBattery.

{
    ApplPkt *m;
    switch( msg->getKind() ){
    case BROADCAST_MESSAGE:
        m = static_cast<ApplPkt *>(msg);
        coreEV << "Received a broadcast packet from host["<<m->getSrcAddr()<<"] -> sending reply\n";
        sendReply(m);
        break;
    case BROADCAST_REPLY_MESSAGE:
        m = static_cast<ApplPkt *>(msg);
        coreEV << "Received reply from host["<<m->getSrcAddr()<<"]; delete msg\n";
        delete msg;
  break;
    default:
  EV <<"Error! got packet with unknown kind: " << msg->getKind()<<endl;
        delete msg;
    }
}

void TestApplLayer::handleSelfMsg ( cMessage * msg ) [protected, virtual]

Handle self messages such as timer...

A timer with kind = SEND_BROADCAST_TIMER indicates that a new broadcast has to be send (sendBroadcast).

There are no other timer implemented for this module.

    delayTimer = NULL;
  break;
    default:
      EV << "Unknown selfmessage! -> delete, kind: "<<msg->getKind() <<endl;
  delete msg;
    }
}

void TestApplLayer::initialize ( int stage ) [virtual]

Initialization of the module and some variables.

First we have to initialize the module from which we derived ours, in this case BasicModule.

Then we will set a timer to indicate the first time we will send a message

      hasPar("coreDebug") ? coreDebug = par("coreDebug").boolValue() : coreDebug = false;
        delayTimer = new cMessage( "delay-timer", SEND_BROADCAST_TIMER );
    }
    else if(stage==1) {
        scheduleAt(simTime() + dblrand() * 10, delayTimer);
    }
}

void TestApplLayer::sendBroadcast ( ) [protected]

send a broadcast packet to all connected neighbors

This function creates a new broadcast message and sends it down to the network layer
