Detailed Description

The Caplin.DataSource.Namespace namespace contains interfaces and implementations for the matching of Subject names to Caplin.DataSource.Publisher.IDataProvider.

A subject name is defined within a DataSource namespace. For example, if the DataSource namespace is the prefix "/FX" the subject name "/FX/EURUSD" is within that namespace, but "/FY/EURUSD" is not. The DataSource namespace ensures that requests for the data with the subject "/FX/EURUSD" are routed to an Caplin.DataSource.Publisher.IDataProvider implementation that can supply that data.

DataSource namespaces are defined in implementations of Caplin.DataSource.Namespace.INamespace

DataSource.NET includes the following implementations of INameSpace:

Caplin.DataSource.Namespace.PrefixNamespace, which matches the start of a subject name.
Caplin.DataSource.Namespace.RegexNamespace, for more complex subject matching requirements.

Should the supplied INamespace implementations not match your requirements, you can write your own custom subject matching login in an implementation of the INamespace interface.
