Hi Jeff,

To extract the current version, I express an interest on the face and
extract the version from the data packet received. Then use this version to
extract our data in segments using segment fetcher.
The main code lines look something like this

​       ​
> name = Name(url)
>         face.expressInterest(name, counter.onData, counter.onTimeout)
> ​ ​
>
>         while counter._callbackCount < 1:
>                 face.processEvents()
>         face.shutdown()
>         name = Name(url+version)
>         dump("Express name ", name.toUri())
>         interest = Interest(name)
>         interest.setInterestLifetimeMilliseconds(1000)
>         SegmentFetcher.fetch(face, interest, None, counter.onComplete,
> counter.onError)
>         while counter._callbackCount < 2:
>                 face.processEvents()
> ​       ​
> face.shutdown()


But for the first interest, i receive a "broken" version number
(
%FDY.%CF-
)
? which is why the segment fetcher doesn't work (?)

1496241583.724584 From: 192.1.242.150, To: 192.1.242.151, Tunnel Type: TCP,
> INTEREST:

Is this how I should go about to fetch the version number before expressing
the interest or is there a simpler method?
