Playing around with the API last night I....
1) Instantiated the Esignal Object
2) Made a request for real-time data (ES #F)
Just playing around.
This morning, I started NeoTicker (I used Esignal feed of course) and all my charts were updating except ES #F. After some thought, I reviewed the API documentation in a little more detail and determined that I need to release (ES #F) to stop the data request. I then went to my test app ran it calling the release method. I then went restarted NeoTicker and voila, I started receiving data for ES #F again.
Questions:
1) Is this typical/normal behaviour? Not releasing a symbol before app shutdown will cause problem in receiving data if using a 3rd party charting application? (this problem only appeared in my 3rd part chart app, not in Esignal charting itself)
2) If this is in fact normal behaviour, can anyone tell me how they determine what symbols must be released upon recovery from a system crash in which case your application never had a chance to shut down properly and release all active symbols.
