error: ‘class helics::MessageFederate’ has no member named ‘SendMessage’

[stevenlebron]

Hi, everyone.
When I try to install helics-ns3 and input the command ./waf configure --with-helics=/usr/local --disable-werror --enable-examples --enable-tests, I encounter errors like
../contrib/helics/examples/fed-filter.cc:61:15: error: ‘class helics::MessageFederate’ has no member named ‘SendMessage’; did you mean ‘getMessage’? | mFed->SendMessage(idsource, name+"/"+dstEndpoint, message.data(), message.size()); | ^~~~~~~~~~~ | getMessage
I think that the errors are due to version issues and some function names are changed, but I can't deal with the issue above.
The versions of helics and ns-3 in my system are respectively 3.4.0 and 3.35.
Can you give me some hints to debug this problems?

Thank you in advance.

It sounds like you’re using a version of the helics-ns3 binding that is made for HELICS v2.

I just noticed that the fed-filter version has been updated, thanks.

Hi, nightlark.
I want to use NS 3.38 to simulate some 5G behaviors and then interact with Helics. But in Github, the latest version of helics-ns3 is NS 3.35.
Can NS 3.38 connect with Helics?

You can probably use the helics 2 with cmake support branch as an example of how to update the main branch to work with newer versions of ns-3.

Unfortunately I don’t have any projects currently funding my time to work on helics-ns3, and I was told it would be a conflict of interest to work on it in my free time. If someone wants to update the main helics-ns3 branch with cmake support and open a PR, I can merge the PR.
