[ndnSIM] Making a simple (?) custom example

[John Baugh]

Greetings again, ndnSIM friends,

Sorry to bother you all again.  As I tackle this simulator and all the
different files and such, I'm finding it somewhat overwhelming at times.
So I hope you can understand if I'm asking silly questions.

Here's my naive thought:

I should be able to just go into the ndnSIM/ns-3/src/ndnSIM/examples
directory, copy one of the files, say *ndn-tree-cs-tracers *to
*ndn-tree-cs2-tracers* (note that 2 in the name).

Then, I did notice that if I move up a couple directories and run ./waf
--run=ndn-tree-cs2-tracers it does seem to work.

Is this the directory we should always work out of?  Will Waf always find
the file even if I make my own custom directory?

*Also, *it looks like most (all?) of the examples on the ndnSIM site* use
the Old Content store.*  Is this still recommended, or can we freely use
the NDF version now with no serious issues?  The previous e-mails seem to
imply this.

-----------------------------

*I tried commenting out the SetOldContentStore *lines and added a call to
SetContentStore:

*ndnHelper.SetContentStore ("ns3::ndn::cs::Lru",*
*                           "MaxSize", "10000");*

When I move up a couple directories and run ./wra
--run=ndn-tree-cs2-tracers, I get an error saying that "*SetContentStore is
not a member of ns3::ndn::StackHelper"*, but it's right there in your
documentation.

I'm very confused and just trying to get my feet wet with the actual code
before I dive in.

Thanks!

John
