sim_switch_ctrlWrites : No such file or directory

[harshgondaliya]

sim_switch_ctrlWrites directory has been provided for switch_calc tutorial project.

But, for all other projects i.e. INT, learning_switch, tcp_monitor there is nosim_switch_ctrlWrites directory at path$NF_DESIGN_DIR/test/

Step 8-9 of compilation process requires us to run sim_switch_ctrlWritessimulation. Does it mean that sim_switch_ctrlWritessimulation need not be run for INT, learning_switch and tcp_monitor project? What is role of this simulation in compilation process?

That's right, the switch calc project is the only one with the sim_switch_ctrlWrites simulation. It is just intended to be an example of how you can read/write P4 registers during a simulation. Feel free to use it as a reference.

OK, got it. Thanks.
