List of all members.

## Detailed Description

DEPRECATED CLASS.

See User Manual for replacement, and reasons of deprecation.

Network packet class. It adds protocol and PDU type to cMessage. The message kind must be either MK_PACKET or MK_INFO for cPackets.

## Public Member Functions
Constructors, destructor, assignment
| cPacket (const char *name=NULL, short protocol=0, short pdu=0)
| cPacket (const cPacket &m)
cPacket & | operator= (const cPacket &m)
Redefined cObject member functions.
virtual cPolymorphic * | dup () const
virtual std::string | info () const
virtual void | netPack (cCommBuffer *buffer)
virtual void | netUnpack (cCommBuffer *buffer)
New attributes.
short | protocol () const

void | setProtocol (short p)
void | setPdu (short p)

## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

cPacket::cPacket | ( | const char * | name = `NULL`,
|  | short | protocol = `0`,
|  | short | pdu = `0`
| ) | `[inline, explicit]`

| Constructor.

cPacket::cPacket | ( | const cPacket & | m | ) |

| Copy constructor.

## Member Function Documentation

virtual cPolymorphic* cPacket::dup | ( |  | ) | const`[inline, virtual]`

| Creates and returns an exact copy of this object. See cObject for more details. Reimplemented from cMessage.

virtual std::string cPacket::info | ( |  | ) | const`[virtual]`

| Produces a one-line description of object contents into the buffer passed as argument. See cObject for more details. Reimplemented from cMessage.

virtual void cPacket::netPack | ( | cCommBuffer * | buffer | ) | `[virtual]`

| Serializes the object into a PVM or MPI send buffer. Used by the simulation kernel for parallel execution. See cObject for more details. Reimplemented from cMessage.

virtual void cPacket::netUnpack | ( | cCommBuffer * | buffer | ) | `[virtual]`

| Deserializes the object from a PVM or MPI receive buffer Used by the simulation kernel for parallel execution. See cObject for more details. Reimplemented from cMessage.

cPacket& cPacket::operator= | ( | const cPacket & | m | ) |

| Assignment operator. The name member doesn't get copied; see cObject's operator=() for more details.

short cPacket::pdu | ( |  | ) | const`[inline]`

| Returns the PDU type.

short cPacket::protocol | ( |  | ) | const`[inline]`

| Returns the protocol ID.

void cPacket::setPdu | ( | short | p | ) | `[inline]`

| Sets the PDU type.

void cPacket::setProtocol | ( | short | p | ) | `[inline]`

| Sets the protocol ID.
