[ndnSIM] Cache module

[Spyridon (Spyros) Mastorakis]

Hello,

I am not sure that I fully understand your question. Could you please be more specific? 

You are not supposed to access any of the CS related classes from the simulation scenario. The simulation scenario should simply define the desired parameters of the simulation itself. You may customize the CS behavior based on your custom policies and CS implementation:

http://ndnsim.net/2.0/cs.html#old-content-store-implementations

Moreover, you can use the contest store tracer to monitor the cache misses/hits:

http://ndnsim.net/2.0/metric.html#content-store-trace-helper

To deploy your own custom policies, your code needs to inherit the base class of the ContentStore or ContentStore implementation and to correctly define the TypeId of each implementation:

https://github.com/NDN-Routing/ndnSIM/blob/master/model/cs/content-store-with-freshness.hpp#L87
https://github.com/NDN-Routing/ndnSIM/blob/master/model/cs/content-store-with-freshness.hpp#L39-L40

Hope that this helps.
