message referring in CAP messages

  • 1.  message referring in CAP messages

    Hi,



    I have a question regarding the CAP specification for my clarification.



    A new CAP message is identified by the "identifier" element. The
    identifier is unique for the message. I assume that when the message is
    updated (as specified by the "msgType" element), the identifier will
    have another value.



    Is this assumption correct?



    When the original message needs an update or a cancellation, the
    "msgType" element is used to indicate that the new message is in effect
    an update or a cancellation of an earlier message. To determine which
    message needs updating, the original message is referred to in the
    "references" element. This element contains the "identifier" of the
    original message.



    Is the original message referred to or merely the most recent update?



    Example:

    Let's assume that the first message is an "Alert" message, followed by
    an "Update", and then finally cancelled by a "Cancel" message. Does the
    reference in the "Cancel" message contains the identifier of the
    "Update" message, or does it contain the identifier of the original
    "Alert" message?



    Thanks and kind regards,
