Conversions

Outgoing Rendezvous messages will be generated with fields from the values in the Sybase CEP stream. The name of each field will be precisely that of the schema column (text case is preserved). Any columns with NULL values will not be converted to Rendezvous fields. Thus, a row with all NULL values should yield an empty Rendezvous message.

Sybase CEP data columns will be translated to Rendezvous fields as follows:
Sybase CEP Data Type Tibco Rendezvous Data Type
Integer 32-bit Signed Integer
Long 64-bit Signed Integer
Float 64-bit Floating-point
String String
Timestamp 64-bit Signed Integer
Interval 64-bit Signed Integer
Boolean Boolean
XML XML
BLOB Opaque

For any Sybase CEP schema column of type Interval, the corresponding Rendezvous field should be of type Signed 64-bit Integer (or a smaller signed/unsigned Rendezvous integer data type), which will contain a value representing the number of microseconds in the interval.
