optional components used in running ns. The package contains an

3. Installing the package
--------------------------
sudo apt install build-essential autoconf automake libxmu-dev xorg-dev
sudo apt install g++-5
tar zxfv ns-allinone-2.35.tar.gz 
cd ns-allinone-2.35/
vi ns-2.35/linkstate/ls.h

  void eraseAll() { erase(baseMap::begin(), baseMap::end()); }

  void eraseAll() { this->erase(baseMap::begin(), baseMap::end()); }
  
export CC=gcc-5 CXX=g++-5 && ./install
                   // if Ubuntu 16.04, the build command is './install' only

git init
git remote add origin https://github.com/davidfdzp/ns-allinone-2.35.git
git fetch origin
git clean -d -fx
git checkout --track origin/master

Now, all you need to do is type "./install" under this directory. The install
script will compile and install the whole package for you. The script also
will tell you the final installation result.

Add paths to .bash_aliases file or .bashrc
