eSignal offers a number of development tools that, when
combined in a custom solution right for you, make it easy to develop
your own monitoring, analysis or trading application or web tools
-- the custom applications that spell success for your business.
I.
Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) Third party applications
that support Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) can receive data
from the Data Manager. (Microsoft Excel and other applications
support DDE.) The Data Manager acts as a server, and the
other application acts as a client. You can then format,
arrange and manipulate the data using that application’s
features.
II.
eSignal
Formula Script (EFS) EFS is an extended version
of JavaScript 1.5 with custom extensions that give the
user specific control over eSignal advanced charting.
These extensions allow users to access the chart data
and develop custom indicators and back testing strategies.
III.
Desktop
API The Desktop API is
an ActiveX-like control
that uses Microsoft’s Component Object Model (COM)
technology to provide individual users and third party
development groups a way to exchange data with the eSignal
desktop application. The Desktop API can be used with
any Windows programming language, including Microsoft's
.NET environment and requires eSignal to be running
concurrently. The Desktop API can also integrate with
Java applications via a wrapper provided by IBM.
IV.
Standard
API* eSignal's Standard API provides third party development
groups of corporations a way to access the full set
of functions for requesting and processing raw data
from the eSignal suite of data servers. eSignal and
the third party must agree on a series of contracts
and fees before the Standard API is accessible to that
third party. The Standard API supports development using
Visual Basic (VB), C, C++ and C# and in some Java-based
scenarios.
