[ndnSIM] is there a way to serialize a NameTree?

Hi,

unfortunately, I am not aware of any quick hacks to do that, unless you implement your own serialization/deserialization scheme. You can take a look at how we encode and decode Interest and Data packets here:

https://github.com/named-data-ndnSIM/ndn-cxx/blob/ndn-cxx-0.5.0-17-g99832d4-ndnSIM/src/interest.cpp#L217 <https://github.com/named-data-ndnSIM/ndn-cxx/blob/ndn-cxx-0.5.0-17-g99832d4-ndnSIM/src/interest.cpp#L217>
https://github.com/named-data-ndnSIM/ndn-cxx/blob/ndn-cxx-0.5.0-17-g99832d4-ndnSIM/src/data.cpp#L52 <https://github.com/named-data-ndnSIM/ndn-cxx/blob/ndn-cxx-0.5.0-17-g99832d4-ndnSIM/src/data.cpp#L52>

Probably you could use the API provided by NS-3 to do serialization in the header or the body of an NS-3 packet:

https://www.nsnam.org/doxygen/classns3_1_1_header.html <https://www.nsnam.org/doxygen/classns3_1_1_header.html>
https://www.nsnam.org/doxygen/classns3_1_1_packet.html <https://www.nsnam.org/doxygen/classns3_1_1_packet.html>

Hope that this helps,
