Support for WEA2.0

In 
BlackBerry AtHoc
 release 7.10 and later releases, the 
NDS
 IPAWS plug-in supports both WEA 1.0 and WEA 2.0.
With WEA 2.0, when a specific event type is selected in the Device Options in 
BlackBerry AtHoc
NDS
 appends a relevant WEA handling code to the payload before sending it to IPAWS.
The following table shows the mapping of event types and WEA handling codes:
