im working with c++ and NS3 for my thesis. so i'd like to sort a vector of struct with the stl function sort so i'll post my header file where my vector is situated and i'll explain what i'd like to do.
#include "ns3/net-device.h"
#include "ns3/object.h"
#include "ns3/log.h"
#include <vector>
#include <stdint.h>
#include "miscellaneous.h"
namespace ns3 {
/**
* \brief The UeRecord class is developed in order to store at the eNodeB
* all information (such as feedback cqi, mac address etc...) of a UE registered
* into that eNodeB. All UE records are managed by the UeManager class
*/
class UeRecord : public Object
{
public:
UeRecord ();
~UeRecord ();
/**
* \brief CqiFeedbacks represents a list of CQI feedbacks
* sent by the UE. The downlink packet scheduler of
* the eNB uses these values to assign accordingly
* radio resources.
*/
/**
* \brief a list of CQI feedbacks
*/
typedef std::vector<struct CqiFeedback> CqiFeedbacks;
/**
* \brief Creates a ue record of the UE registered into the eNB
* \param ue the pointer of the ue device
* \param enb the pointer of the enb device
*/
UeRecord (Ptr<NetDevice> ue, Ptr<NetDevice> enb);
/**
* \brief Set the UE of the record
* \param ue the pointer of the ue device
*/
void SetUe (Ptr<NetDevice> ue);
/**
* \brief Get the UE of the record
* \returns the pointer of the UE
*/
Ptr<NetDevice> GetUe (void);
/**
* \brief Set the eNB of the record
* \param enb the pointer of the enb device
*/
void SetEnb (Ptr<NetDevice> enb);
/**
* \brief Get the eNB of the record
* \returns the pointer of the eNB
*/
Ptr<NetDevice> GetEnb (void);
/**
* \brief Set CQI feedbacks of the registered UE
* \param cqiFeedbacks a list of CQI feedback
*/
void SetCqiFeedbacks (CqiFeedbacks cqiFeedbacks);
/**
* \brief Get CQI feedbacks of the registered UE
* \returns a list of CQI feedback
*/
CqiFeedbacks GetCqiFeedbacks (void);
public:
friend bool operator > (const struct CqiFeedback &a, const struct CqiFeedback &b);
inline bool operator > (const struct CqiFeedback &a, const struct CqiFeedback &b)
{
if(a.m_cqi>b.mcqi) return true;
return false;
}
private:
Ptr<NetDevice> m_ue;
Ptr<NetDevice> m_enb;
CqiFeedbacks m_cqiFeedbacks;
};
the struct is this
struct CqiFeedback
{
/** the sub channel */
int m_subChannelId;
/** the cqi feedback */
int m_cqi;
};
i'd like to sort in descending order the vector m_cqiFeedbacks by the m_cqi parameter, the struct contained inside the header file miscellaneous.h. so i tried to overload the operator > in the previous way but i got this error:
debug/ns3/ue-record.h:121: error: ‘bool ns3::UeRecord::operator>(const CqiFeedback&, const CqiFeedback&)’ must take exactly one argument
i don't understand what is wrong!! may you help me please, i tried to read previous discussion, but i didn't realize very well what the problem is ....
