[ndnSIM] Extension of Nack packet

[Alex Afanasyev]

Hi Tun,

When you saying that "it doesn't receive", where are you expecting to receive it?  I mean, which function?

Depending on which strategy class you're modifying, this could be in different places.  If you're modifying directly ndn-forwarding-strategy.cc, then the packet will arrive in OnInterest() call.

If you are modifying anything that inherited from fw::Nacks class, then it will be in OnNack() method.  You can check the implementation of OnInterest in fw::Nacks class to the get idea how this happens.
