/** * \mainpage ns-3 Documentation * * \section intro-sec Introduction * ns-3 documentation is maintained using * Doxygen. * Doxygen is typically used for * API documentation, and organizes such documentation across different * modules. This project uses Doxygen both for building the manual around * the API documentation, and a separate GNU texinfo document is used for * the manual. * * The ns-3 project documentation is organized as follows: * - modules: The "Modules" tab (above) * organizes all of the public API and supporting manual text * along the source code directory structure. This forms the * "ns-3 manual", and it is available in HTML and PDF forms. * - tutorial: The ns-3 tutorial is a separate document maintained in GNU Texinfo. * - Reference manual: The ns-3 tutorial is a separate document maintained in GNU Texinfo. * - Testing and validation manual: The ns-3 tutorial is a separate document maintained in GNU Texinfo. * - The ns-3 wiki * contains additional user-contributed material. Some wiki-contributed * material may migrate to and overlap with the Doxygen and manual information. * * \section install-sec Building the Documentation * * ns-3 requires Doxygen version 1.5.4 or greater to fully build all items, * although earlier versions of Doxygen will mostly work. * * Type "./waf doxygen" to build the documentation. The doc/ directory contains * configuration for Doxygen (doxygen.conf and main.txt). The Doxygen * build process puts html files into the doc/html/ directory, and latex * filex into the doc/latex/ directory. * * \section module-sec Module overview * * The ns-3 library is split across multiple modules: * - core: located in src/core and contains a number of facilities which * do not depend on any other module. Some of these facilities are * OS-dependent. * - simulator: located in src/simulator and contains event scheduling * facilities. * - common: located in src/common and contains facilities specific * to network simulations but shared by pretty much every model * of a network component. * - node: located in src/node. Defines the abstract interfaces which * must be implemented by every node and more specifically, by ipv4 nodes. * - devices: located in src/devices. Contains a set of MAC-level models * * More detail can be found in the Modules * tab. * */ /** * \namespace ns3 * \brief Every class exported by the ns3 library is enclosed in the * ns3 namespace. */
