OverSim Installation Instructions

These instructions show you how to install OverSim for Linux. Compiling and running OverSim for Windows is currently not supported (If you want to compile OverSim for windows, you should take a look at the ​OMNeT++ install instructions for Windows).

1. Download ​OMNeT++ 3.3 from ​http://www.omnetpp.org/ after reading the ​License

2. Create a new directory (in the following we assume you want to install OMNeT++

and OverSim to ~/sim/) and extract OMNeT++:

   mkdir ~/sim
   cd ~/sim
   tar xzf /tmp/omnetpp-3.3-src.tgz

3. Add the following lines to your .bashrc or .profile

      export PATH=$PATH:~/sim/omnetpp-3.3/bin
      export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:~/sim/omnetpp-3.3/lib
   

4. Edit ~/sim/omnetpp-3.3/configure.user and change CFLAGS for speed and profiling:

      CFLAGS='-O3 -DNDEBUG=1 -gstabs+3 -Wall'
   

5. Compile OMNeT++

      cd ~/sim/omnetpp-3.3
      ./configure
      make
