The tc, insmod, and preload commands terminate at the end of the line. Lines can be continued by ending them with a backslash. All other commands terminate at the next command keyword.
C-style comments can be used anywhere in a tcsim configuration
file. Outside of tcng configuration sections, comments can also
be started with a semicolon (;). Such comments extend to the end
of the line.
Example:
/* This is a comment */
dev eth0 1Mbps; this is also a comment
{
prio; // comment: semicolons in tcng configuration
// sections are NOT interpreted as comment
// characters
}
The description file may contain cpp directives. Note that also cpp directives in tcng configuration sections are processed by tcsim. Therefore, the following example would not work as probably intended:
#define N 5
dev eth0 {
#define N 10
fifo (limit N p);
}
send 0 x N
