HOW TO IMPORT CPACKET.H PACKAGES IN OMNET++

To import CPACKET.H packages in omnet++tool we have listed out the Installation steps in detail. The cPacket header plays a key role in representing network packets or messages within the simulation framework. It’s a core component of the OMNeT++ simulation environment, allowing for the modeling and management of data exchanged between modules in a network simulation. Since cPacket is derived from cMessage, it inherits all the message handling features like scheduling, sending, and receiving messages. On top of that, it adds packet-specific capabilities. This class lets you wrap extra data and metadata inside the packet, including headers, payloads, and various attributes, making it super flexible for simulating different network protocols and packet formats. Plus, cPacket supports serialization, which means packets can be saved and restored, making it handy for checkpointing and recovery during lengthy simulations.

Installation steps for  cPacket.h.

PRE-REQUISITES:

  1. Fresh installation of Windows 10:

2.OMNeT++ Building Process:

Next, we need to build the Aloha folder to make Aloha Example to work in the OMNET++ 6.0.2 IDE. Right Click the Aloha folder and Click the Build Project Option to build the Aloha Folder.

Here We successfully built and imported the Aloha Example in the OMNET++ IDE.

3.Importing cPacket.h:

Here we imported the cPacket.h header file in this example program by clicking the Host.cc, you can see the header imported.

4.Executing the Example Program Using cPacket header file:

Then we need to run the Example program Using cPacket header file to view output of the program. Firstly, we need to locate to the “/Aloha/” to find the example program in the Aloha Folder.
