I guess it means CsTracer only supports ndnSIM 1.0 style ContentStore,
which you can set with SetOldContentStore function.
I suggest you report a documentation bug on ndnSIM Redmine site.

Yes, either in the Forwarder at the beginning of onContentStoreHit and
onContentStoreMiss functions, or in Cs class where it returns a lookup
result.
