Re: [ns] How to halt and then resume the scheduler ?

["Tuan Nguyen Ngoc" <tuan.nguyen@hevs.ch>]

Thank you very much for answer.

I would like to halt and resume the scheduler because I want to interfere into the event scheduler. The thing I want is reconfiguration the network topology dynamically (i.e while ns executes the script).
However now, I have found the solution to do that, no need to halt and resume the scheduler anymore.

I have tried 
 $ns_ at <timeA> "[$ns_ set scheduler_] halt"
but it seems that it have the same effect as $ns halt.
The event scheduler terminated and I can not resume it. I think the event "halt" means "stop", not "pause".

Best regard,
Tuan

Why would you want to do that?

Try 

$ns_ at <timeA> "[$ns_ set scheduler_] halt"
$ns_ at <timeB> "[$ns_ set scheduler_] resume"

The command function in scheduler.cc implements a resume "method".
