[ndnSIM] Setting a custom policy for Content Store

[Alex Afanasyev]

Can you post the exact error you're getting (if it is too long, you can use pastebin.com <http://pastebin.com/>).  If you also can share the snippet that reproduces the problem, it would be much faster to debug the issue and suggest the solution.
