Detailed Description

A database relation with key attributes defined.

The RapidNet

See also:

Database contains relations of this type. It maps tuples by their keys. Methods

AddKeyAttribute() and

AddKeyAttributes() are used to define the keys. A key Attribute is defined by the name and type of the Attribute. A relation must have at least one key Attribute. All tuples inserted must have those attributes of matching types and any other additional attributes.

Usually, tuples in a relation will have the same set of non-key attributes as well. But there is no way to enforce this. The schema of the relation is defined only by the name and type of the key attributes.

Implementation note: This class maintains a map in which the value is the tuple and the key is another tuple that is contains only the key attributes of the corresponding tuple.

virtual TypeId ns3::rapidnet::Relation::GetInstanceTypeId

[inline, virtual]

Returns:

the TypeId associated to the most-derived type of this instance.

This method is typically implemented by ns3::Object::GetInstanceTypeId but some classes which derive from ns3::ObjectBase directly have to implement it themselves.

Reimplemented from ns3::rapidnet::RelationBase.

)

[static]

This method returns the TypeId associated to ns3::Object.

No Attributes defined for this type.
