hi Ugo,
Rather than use a flag in a message to switch between types, you
should consider defining multiple message types. We designed ROS to
make it easy to define new messages, and to hook up multiple
publishers and subscribers. You're free to use a flag, of course;
it's just not the recommended design pattern.
