CR# Description
N/A

Modifcations to existing connections to the Sybase CEP Server are not saved automatically.

Workaround: Restart the builder or the Sybase CEP Server for the changes to take effect.

N/A

When subscribing to a stream with dates, the dates will show up in local time instead of GMT. Therefore, the dates may appear different than what is stored in the Server, depending on the timezone you are in.

Workaround: Ensure that the timezone option is specified as GMT when running the run_builder or run_viewer command. If the start_builder and start_viewer scripts are used, this is not an issue.

N/A

The project and subscribe option is not currently supported.

Workaround: All other options are supported.

N/A

All error messages are displayed in the console only, except for the publication related messages.

Workaround: N/A.

Workaround: Some users may work around this issue by having an additional stream translate the null columns for each tuple into a special value (for example, convert null integers into a -1) to indicate null, and have their RTView project subscribe to this stream instead and display accordingly.
