Re: [ns] - NS main function

["Mark Butler" <mark_wibble@hotmail.com>]

Sorry, I probably should have been more specific;

I would like to know which function in the C++ code is executed first when 
running ./ns <tclfile> from the command line. The first operation of NS, as 
far as I can gather, is to read in the tclfile or read in from the command 
line. Is this from the main function in tclAppInit.cc ? There are also main 
functions in dem.cc, ns_tclsh.cc, route.cc, tcplib-telnet.cc, tkAppInit.cc 
so is it one of these functions that is run first ?

They are all compiled and linked within the Makefile and so I'm not sure 
which one is actually executed first. I'm used to programs only having one 
main function ;-)

Cheers,
Mark
