Re: [ns] target_

[Yan Yu <yanyu@ISI.EDU>]

I have a related Q:
I think the reason why the problem mentioned in the previous email
happens is that the target_ of the routing agent is overwritten to the
CMUTrace() object somehow...  

my Q is:
when create wireless node, is there somewhere in the initialization
phase that the routing agent's
target is set to trace target, i.e., CMUTrace() here?

Thanks!!
