Hi,
not quite sure I catched the right forum, but I'll give it a try here.
I'm playing around with the GPX I can generate from geocaching.com. I figured out that
a) downloading a single GPX from a specific cache listing will include my own log in the GPX regardless how many logs came later than that one
requesting a "My Finds" pocket query will generate GPX where all included caches will include my own log
c) requesting a free defined pocket query (e.g. from the map) will generate a GPX with the latest logs (5?) of the included caches included, but not necessarily including my own logs in case they would be older
First question: is the above right?
Now, why do I want to know? I'm trying to figure out how to identify a cache found by myself out of the GPX. As I am using GSAK I think I did understand that you identify this by looking for your own username in the logs included in the GPX. Well, then I took a GPX, deleted my own log from it, and loaded it into GSAK. And GSAK did still mark that as "found". So then I took a GPX, deleted my own log from it, changed the Geocache Code and ID and loaded it into GSAK. And GSAK did still mark that as "found".
Second question: How does GSAK identify my own "founds" even if the GPX (apparently) does not include any hint on that? (Or was my try just a result of some wierd database caching? Espcially after the second change to the GPX it should not have been found anymore...
Thanks for your help! & regards,
Oliver
