Is there any sample in c++ ?
Thanks
There isn't because unlike all other Eikon COM APIs RHistory API can only be used in Excel VBA.
what about AdfinX Real-Time API with CreateAdxRtHistory ?
This is a legacy object retrieving timeseries from a legacy source that deemed to be sunset. It should not be used in any new projects.If you need to retrieve timeseries of price history into a C++ application, use Eikon .NET API. You can use it alongside Eikon COM APIs.
@Alex Putkov.1 by Eikon Data Api you mean APIs for Python?
I'm only seeing Python API reference guide there.
Yes, that's what I mean, although Eikon Data APIs are not specifically for Python per se. Python ease of use library is the only one we officially support, but there are also ready available similar open source community owned libraries for R and .NET, and more open source language specific implementations are envisaged in the future. And underlying these ease of use language specific libraries are language agnostic REST and Websockets APIs, which have not yet been made public, but will be. We refer to all of this collectively as Eikon Data APIs.
Understood. Thank you
Excel plugin uses COM to communicate with desktop application. COM is a standard technology that does not depend on a language. So how come it's possible to use it in VBA, but not in other languages?
You mentioned .Net API can be used in C++ application. Could you give me any example? I checked the downloads. There is only c#. Also, what technology is used to communicate with Eikon app in .Net API?
