About path computation in ODL

Hi mingming,

I'm trying to find a API to compute the link path between two hosts. So I read the code from openflowplugin (add@... and addFlow@SalFlowServiceImpl). But seems the it just ad given flows to switchers rather than calculate the path. 

So I turn to OpenDayLight/controller to find a function to get the path. I found that org.opendaylight.controller.sal.routing provides a getRoute method but it no longer be used in the newer ODL (may be it's a AD-SAL function). Now ODL using org.opendaylight.controller.md.sal.common.api.routing to compute path. But I can't find out where the implement is and how to use it. Do you have any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi Mingming,

Thanks! I haven't found the AD-SAL routing function yet and I'll continue to find it. Do you have any clues or keywords to pinpoint it? Because I can only locate the MD-SAL interfaces right now.

Hi JunZhuo,
I have told Shu how to invoke addflow. Now the problem is how to compute path, right? I know that there is a ad sal routing method using D algorithm. now you have find md sal routing,right? I can not get my laptop because of my younger brother's wedding. 3 days later I can reply you at least. I will try to find ways to get code as long as I am free. Sorry not to  answer your question right now. I will communicate with you later. 
Best Regards,
Mingming
