          Question:
          NGSI update attributes from complex entities in Wirecloud

          Description:
          Is it possible to update a child attribute through the updateAttributes() function from Wirecloud NGSI API?

          For example, a coordinate (entity.location.coords.coordinates[0]=-2.000000) in this piece of entity.

          "attrNames": [ "A1", "A2", "position" ],
          "creDate": 1389376081,
          "modDate": 1389376244,
          "location": {
          "attrName": "position",
          "coords":

          { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [ -3.691944, 40.418889 ] }

          EDITED

          My own answer: It is possible by passing an object as value of the attribute.

          ngsi.updateAttributes([
          {
          'entity':

          {'id': "entity-id"}

          ,
          'attributes':[{
          "name":"location","contextValue": {
          "attrName": "position",
          "coords":

          { "type": "Point", "coordinates": [ -2.000000, 40.418889 ] }

          }
          }]
          }
          ],

          { onSuccess: onUpdateAttributesSuccess, onFailure: onUpdateAttributesFail }

          );

          However, Wirecloud is using NGSI API v1, therefore all attributes are treated as strings when they are sent/received to/from Orion.
