[ndnSIM] Ways to create new Interest object

[Spyridon (Spyros) Mastorakis]

Hi Mudasir,

you are saying that the findOrInsert method gives you an error, but you are not saying what the error is.

Another thing you might have to do with solution #2 is to generate a new nonce for the Interest.

Thanks,
