Methods

ConnectData(Int32, Array, Boolean)

Adds new topics from a real-time data server. The ConnectData method is called when a file is opened that contains real-time data functions or when a user types in a new formula which contains the RTD function.

DisconnectData(Int32)

Notifies a real-time data (RTD) server application that a topic is no longer in use.

Heartbeat()

Determines if the real-time data server is still active. Zero or a negative number indicates failure; a positive number indicates that the server is active.

RefreshData(Int32)

This method is called by Microsoft Excel to get new data.

ServerStart(IRTDUpdateEvent)

The ServerStart method is called immediately after a real-time data server is instantiated. Negative value or zero indicates failure to start the server; positive value indicates success.

ServerTerminate()

Terminates the connection to the real-time data server.
