[ndnSIM] Data delivery problem in NDN based Mobile Ad-hoc network (V2V scenario)

Hi,

Thank you for the comments. I checked the PIT entry and there are no PIT
entries in the intermediate nodes and that is why it considers the data
unsolicited and gives it to the unsolicited data pipeline.
I am trying to figure out why there is no PIT entry in the intermediate
nodes since they successfully forward all the Interest packets to the next
wireless nodes. But I couldn't find the reason yet.
I did not change anything in the source code of forwarder.cc So, I don't
know why this problem exists.
Any comment would be appreciated.

Thanks
