CR#	Description
629917	c8_write_to_rap.adl file The c8_write_to_rap.adl filename for RAP In-Process adapter has changed to c8_sybase_rap_publisher.adl. Modify each instance of this filename to reflect this change.
N/A	Sybase CEP games The documentation mentions a number of games that are installed with the Sybase CEP R4 Studio component. These games are no longer included with the Sybase CEP product.
592593	Sybase CEP library c8_studio no longer requires the libiconv.so.1 library on Solaris platforms. The new library is libXinerama.so.1. The documentation for this revision references the SMClinconv package where it should say SUNWxwplt.
589213	Guaranteed delivery Guaranteed Delivery is only available in synchronous mode. This is not specified in the Sybase CEP documentation.
N/A	Excel adapter The CEP Excel RTD Adapter Guide incorrectly states that the ProgID of the Sybase CEP RTD plugin program is `C8.RTD`. The correct ProgID is `Sybase.C8.RTD`.
616961	Starting the JMS Adapter The Integration Guide has a mistake in the command string for starting the JMS Adapter: it is missing the slash between sybase and c8 in the command string. It should be`java com/sybase/c8/adapter/JMSadapter -topic=test1 -GD=true`.
623789	Integration Guide The current instructions in Sybase CEP Integration Guide> Sybase CEP Adapters> Adapters Supplied by Sybase CEP> RAP - The Trading Edition Adapters> Setting up UA for RAP - The Trading Edition Adapters are no longer applicable. Use the instructions below instead: Unified Agent (UA) is a Java based agent that gathers statistics from a RAP publisher. It uses JMX technology and runs parallel to the server it monitors or administers. Sybase recommends that you copy the bin/rap/ua directory and use a different ua directory for each running instance of a RAP adapter. To start the UA agent and configure the RAP in-process or out-of-process adapter to package UA statistics: In bin/rap/ua/bin/myenv, set appropriate values for the following envars as specified in the "TODO" instructions at the top of the file: SYBASE_UA SYBASE_JRE UA_RMI_PORT Note: UA_RMI_PORT in myenv should match the port property value in service-config.xml. In bin/rap/ua/plugins/com.sybase.rap.rapservice/agent-plugin.xml, set appropriate values for the following properties as specified in the file: rap.service_host rap.service_port rap.service_startCommand rap.service_pluginsubtype rap.service_plugindisplayname If the bin/rap directory link points to the rap-r4 directory, set the following properties in agent-plugin.xml also: rap.service_logFile rap.service_configFileDir rap.service_componentTemplateDir In in/rap/ua/service/RMI/service-config.xml, set the appropriate value for the following property as specified in the file: port Note: The AdminPort node value in the adapter publisher.xml should match the rap.service_port property value in agent-plugin.xml.
