Detailed Description

Information element vector

Implements a vector of WifiInformationElements. Information elements typically come in groups, and the WifiInformationElementVector class provides a representation of a series of IEs, and the facility for serialisation to and deserialisation from the over-the-air format.

Doxygen introspection did not find any typical Config paths.
No Attributes are defined for this type.
No TraceSources are defined for this type.

Member Function Documentation

uint32_t ns3::WifiInformationElementVector::Deserialize ( Buffer::Iterator  start)
virtual
Attention
When you use RemoveHeader, WifiInformationElementVector supposes, that all buffer consists of information elements
Parameters
start
Returns

Implements ns3::Header.

Definition at line 68 of file wifi-information-element-vector.cc.

References DeserializeSingleIe(), ns3::Buffer::Iterator::GetDistanceFrom(), ns3::Buffer::Iterator::GetSize(), and ns3::Buffer::Iterator::Next().

uint32_t ns3::WifiInformationElementVector::DeserializeSingleIe ( Buffer::Iterator  start)
virtual

Needed when you try to deserialize a lonely IE inside other header.

Parameters
startis the start of the buffer
Returns
deserialized bytes

Reimplemented in ns3::MeshInformationElementVector.

Definition at line 81 of file wifi-information-element-vector.cc.

References ns3::WifiInformationElement::DeserializeInformationField(), ns3::Buffer::Iterator::GetDistanceFrom(), GetSize(), m_maxSize, ns3::Buffer::Iterator::Next(), NS_FATAL_ERROR, and ns3::Buffer::Iterator::ReadU8().

Referenced by Deserialize(), and ns3::MeshInformationElementVector::DeserializeSingleIe().

TypeId ns3::WifiInformationElementVector::GetInstanceTypeId ( ) const
virtual
Returns
the TypeId associated to the most-derived type of this instance.

This method is typically implemented by ns3::Object::GetInstanceTypeId but some classes which derive from ns3::ObjectBase directly have to implement it themselves.

Implements ns3::ObjectBase.

Definition at line 50 of file wifi-information-element-vector.cc.

uint32_t ns3::WifiInformationElementVector::GetSerializedSize ( ) const
virtual
Returns
the expected size of the header.

This method is used by Packet::AddHeader to store a header into the byte buffer of a packet. This method should return the number of bytes which are needed to store the full header data by Serialize.

Implements ns3::Header.

Definition at line 55 of file wifi-information-element-vector.cc.

References GetSize().

void ns3::WifiInformationElementVector::Print ( std::ostream &  os) const
virtual
Parameters
osoutput stream This method is used by Packet::Print to print the content of a trailer as ascii data to a c++ output stream. Although the trailer is free to format its output as it wishes, it is recommended to follow a few rules to integrate with the packet pretty printer: start with flags, small field values located between a pair of parens. Values should be separated by whitespace. Follow the parens with the important fields, separated by whitespace. i.e.: (field1 val1 field2 val2 field3 val3) field4 val4 field5 val5

Implements ns3::Header.

Definition at line 103 of file wifi-information-element-vector.cc.

void ns3::WifiInformationElementVector::Serialize ( Buffer::Iterator  start) const
virtual
Parameters
startan iterator which points to where the header should be written.

This method is used by Packet::AddHeader to store a header into the byte buffer of a packet. The data written is expected to match bit-for-bit the representation of this header in a real network.

Implements ns3::Header.
