Hello - Could someone please tell me if it is possible to keep a data subscription open when making a bdp call when using RBloomberg (i.e. constantly updated real-time prices)? For example,
> library(RBloomberg) Loading required package: rJava > conn <- blpConnect() R version 2.13.2 (2011-09-30) rJava Version 0.9-3 RBloomberg Version 0.4-150 Java environment initialized successfully. Looking for most recent blpapi3.jar file... Adding C:\blp\API\APIv3\JavaAPI\v3.5.1.1\lib\blpapi3.jar to Java classpath Bloomberg API Version 3.5.1.1 > conn [1] "Java-Object{org.findata.blpwrapper.Connection@187955b}" > bdp(conn, "IBM US EQUITY", "LAST_PRICE") LAST_PRICE IBM US EQUITY 161.2 I would like the bdp call to remain open or subscribed to constantly update, as it does when executing the code =BDP("IBM EQUITY","LAST PRICE") in Excel. I appreciate any help. Thank you, Larry [[alternative HTML version deleted]] _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Finance@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-finance -- Subscriber-posting only.
