RTO EMA C++: how do I know the message generation time in Real-Time system

For an EMA application, how do I know the message generation time in Real-Time system, in the onRefreshMsg/onUpdateMsg methods? Not the local time of the application runtime environment.


For example, the 'update' below (actually it was extracted from DSS), I would like to get the datetime like '2021-11-23T00:00:00.213703238Z' which would be the accurate message generation time. As we can not extract the date information in the message body (the ASK_TIME1 does not have such date information, only time).

@Frederic

'2021-11-23T00:00:00.213703238Z' is not a message generation time. It is a timestamp when DSS retrieved this message.

Typically, you can verify the time related to that message from the time fields in the message and verify the date from the date fields in the message.

You may contact the Content support team to verify when the date fields of this RIC are updated.
