Application Configuration File

A Sybase CEP Reuters adapter instance reads an application configuration file at startup in order to set configuration preferences.

An example configuration file is installed as RDMConsumer.cfg. Use that file as a base for your own configuration files.

This table describes the entries in the application configuration file:
Entry Description
\msgModelRequestType The adapter only supports the MarketPrice model, so leave this entry as is.
\directoryReqFilter Leave this entry as is.
\detailTrace This entry set to True provides debug output. To eliminate the debug output, set it to False or comment it out.
\msgModelDefaultDisplay Leave this entry as True to provide a summary of messages.
\symbolFile The name of a file containing symbols for the initial subscription. The file should contain one symbol per line. The default entry is reutersSymbols.cfg.
\loadLocalDicts Change to True to load dictionaries locally instead of retrieving them from the provider.
\fidDictLocation The name of the local fid dictionary file. Only meaningful if \loadLocalDicts is set to True.
\enumDictLocation The name of the local enumeration dictionary file. Only meaningful if \loadLocalDicts is set to True.
\userName The name of the user on whose behalf the SSL mount is being performed. Also used to determine permissions.
\position The host name or IP address of the system on which the provider resides.
\appId The application ID for login. The default value from the Reuters distribution.
\session (Required) The name of a session, which corresponds to a configuration node for session parameters in the RFA configuration file.
\serviceList A comma-separated list of service names. Service names specified in the subscriber stream need to be listed here, or the adapter prints a warning message. The first name in this list is the default. If you omit this list, the default is DIRECT_FEED.
