[Ns-bugs] [Bug 281] New: Socket::CreateSocket (node, "string") does not do what you think

           Summary: Socket::CreateSocket (node, "string") does not do what
                    you think
           Product: ns-3
           Version: pre-release
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: node module
        AssignedTo: ns-bugs at isi.edu
        ReportedBy: mathieu.lacage at sophia.inria.fr


the above code compiles but the type of the second arg of CreateSocket is a
TypeId, not an std::string, to a TypeId is implicitely constructed as a
temporary variable but this TypeId (char *) constructor does not do a lookup
for the requested TypeId. It, instead, attempts to create a new TypeId which,
in this case, is likely to trigger the warning:
"Trying to allocate twice the same uid:"
in ../src/core/type-id.cc:115

What are the fixes ? A simple fix might be to make CreateSocket take a
std::string instead of a TypeId. I have not verified it would work though.
