[Ns-developers] Application::Start/Stop, time parameter inconsistent with Simulator::Schedule

[Gustavo Carneiro]

I am looking at some student's code and I found this:


              ooffi->Start (Simulator::Now ());
              ooffi->Stop(Simulator::Now() +Seconds(120.0));

              Simulator::Schedule (Simulator::Now() +Seconds(120.0),
&GtpUmts::EraseFirstLoadFactor,&umts);

I am guessing that, most likely, the Simulator::Schedule call is wrong and
should be  Simulator::Schedule (Seconds(120.0), ...) instead.

Alas, it's easy to make this mistake since Application::Start/Stop() accept
absolute time, while Simulator::Schedule accepts relative time...
