RAP - The Trading Edition Out-of-process Adapter

The RAP - The Trading Edition out-of-process adapter reads a Sybase CEP data stream and transforms it into a feed handler for RAP.

This out-of-process adapter, named c8_sybase_rap_adapter, is installed in the adapters directory under your Sybase CEP Server or Sybase CEP Studio installation directory. The file exists under the following locations:

SybaseC8/server/bin
SybaseC8/server/adapters/rap/bin
SybaseC8/enterprise-adapters/rap-pub/bin

The adapter uses C/C++ and supports only Linux and Solaris platforms.

The RAP adapter takes a single parameter that identifies a file containing preferences information. The file sample_sybase_rap_prefs.xml, also located in the adapters directory, contains thorough comments explaining the file structure and the purpose of each preference. You can edit a copy of the sample preferences file to meet your requirements.

Before you run the adapter, be sure to modify your PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variables to include the bin directory under your Sybase CEP Server or Sybase CEP Studio installation directory.

To run the adapter, execute the following, replacing sample_sybase_rap_prefs.xml , located at SybaseC8/enterprise-adapters/rap-pub/rap-r2/sample/, with the name of your preferences file:

c8_sybase_rap_adapter my_prefs_file.xml
