you are right.. It compiles perfectly now using flex-old. Thanks a lot.
And you are right yet once again regarding ns2 trace formats. I am
working on the wireless wpan (IEEE 802.15.4) which is somewhat similar
to 802.11, but I guess built-in ns support is wired only.
So, I looked into ns.c and modified it so that it reads the format i use...
Good news: tcptrace compiled after the modifications and read my trace
file without complaining.
Bad news: I am using udp instead of tcp, so all my events are ignored
since clearly ns.c looks for tcp and ack events only.
My new question: how can I add udp support to the ns.c input module?
Again, thank you very much for your prompt help.
