This sample demonstrates the use of the TIBCO StreamBase® Adapter for Toronto Broadcast Feed (TBF).
-
In the Package Explorer, double-click
tbf.sbapp
. -
Select the TBFInput adapter icon to open the Properties view for the input adapter.
-
In the Output Ports tab, ensure at least one of the two optional output feed ports is enabled.
-
Select the Definitions tab and modify EquityFeedSchema and/or ReconciliationFeedSchema to include the fields of interest from the corresponding feed.
-
Open the adapter configuration file,
FeedAdapter.cfg
, and modify it to match your site's environment. The configuration file shipped with the sample includes four sessions: two each (primary and recovery) for an equity and reconciliation feed. You may delete unused sessions if you are using the adapter to read either an equity or reconciliation feed, but not both. -
Click the Run button. This opens the SB Test/Debug perspective and starts the application.
-
In the Test/Debug Perspective, open the Application Output view. Observe a session status tuple for each session created. Observe connection status tuples indicating whether the adapter is able to connect to ports supplying the feeds. Observe equity and/or reconciliation tuples on the data port(s).
-
When done, press F9 or click the Stop Running Application button.
This section describes how to run the sample in UNIX terminal windows or Windows command prompt windows. On Windows, be sure to use the StreamBase Command Prompt from the Start menu as described in the Test/Debug Guide, not the default command prompt.
-
Open three terminal windows on UNIX, or three StreamBase Command Prompts on Windows. In each window, navigate to your workspace copy of the sample, as described above.
-
In window 1, type:
sbd tbf.sbapp
-
In window 2, type:
sbc dequeue -v
This window will display the tuples dequeued from the application's output ports.
-
Observe in window 2 session, connection, and data tuples.
-
In window 3, type the following command to terminate the server and dequeuer:
sbadmin shutdown

StreamBase Studio creates a project for this sample.
When you load the sample into StreamBase Studio, Studio copies the sample project's files to your Studio workspace, which is normally part of your home directory, with full access rights.
Important
Load this sample in StreamBase Studio, and thereafter use the Studio workspace copy of the sample to run and test it, even when running from the command prompt.
Using the workspace copy of the sample avoids the permission problems that can occur when trying to work with the initially installed location of the sample. The default workspace location for this sample is:
studio-workspace
/sample_adapter_embedded_tbf
See Default Installation
Directories for the location of studio-workspace
on your system.
In the default TIBCO StreamBase installation, this sample's files are initially installed in:
streambase-install-dir
/sample/adapter/embedded/tbf
See Default Installation
Directories for the location of streambase-install-dir
on your system. This location
may require administrator privileges for write access, depending on your platform.
