Adapter Properties

Specify values for four properties when you attach the Reuters Consumer adapter to a stream in Sybase CEP Studio.

Property name (screen)	Property name (attach adapter)	Type	Description
RFA Configuration file	RFAConfigurationFile	String	The name of your RFA Configuration file.
Application Configuration file	ApplicationConfigurationFile	String	The name of an application configuration file.
URI for subscription modification	SubscriptionURI	String	The URI of a subscriber stream, which must be unique—each instance of the adapter must use a different subscriber stream. If the stream does not exist when the adapter starts, the adapter prints a warning message and checks once a minute, repeating the warning message each time until it finds the stream.
Use Last	UseLastNonNull	Boolean	If True, the adapter replaces Null values from the Reuters event with the last non-Null values for the same RIC. If False, the Sybase CEP columns receive the values from the event as delivered, including Nulls. Defaults to True.
Excluded from Use Last Processing	ColsExcludedFromUseLastNonNull	String	A space-separated list of column names. The columns specified here receive the values from the Reuters event as delivered, including Nulls, even though UseLastNonNull is True. Ignored if UseLastNonNull is False.

Note: If you attach the Reuters Consumer adapter to multiple streams (in one or multiple projects), use a different subscriber stream for each instance. You can use (and reuse) multiple configuration files.

Note: If you enable persistence for the project or module containing the stream that the Sybase CEP Reuters adapter is attached to, the adapter persists subscription information. When the adapter restarts, it restores the subscriptions that were in place before the shutdown rather than reading the symbols file.
