DESERT

Bug #30

Updated by Vincenzo Cimino 5 months ago

Trying to send an asyncClMsg to upper layer causes seg fault. Example: 
 ``` cpp 
 ClMsgOverhearing *m = new ClMsgOverhearing();  
 m->setIPSource(iph->saddr()); 
 sendAsyncClMsgUp(m); 
 ``` 

 Inside `sendAsyncClMsgUp(m)` (in module.cc) this line executes 
 ``` cpp 
 sap->sendUp(m->copy(), delay);  
 ``` 

 which in turn run this macro: (in sap.cc) 
 ``` cpp 
 RUN_DEPRECATED_OR_NEW_VIRTUAL_METHOD(upModule_->crLayCommand(m), upModule_->recvAsyncClMsg(m)); 
 ``` 

 which essentially will call the `crLayCommand(m)` crLayCommand(m) method of plugIn class (plugin.cc) plugin that does just this: 
 ``` cpp 
 delete m; 
 return RETVAL_NOT_IMPLEMENTED; 
 ``` 

 That is: deletes the cross layer message and return. 
 Commenting the message deletion seems to solve the problem but it requires further investigating due to the presence of lots of deprecated methods. 
 Anyways the message has to be deleted on the `recvAsyncClMsg` of the module receiving the message.
