Map

Type: Character

Default: ' ' (space)

Caplin’s Real Time Text Protocol (RTTP) uses the '/' character as a separator, but Refinitiv uses the '/' character in symbol names. To prevent RTTP processing from interpreting the '/' character in a Refinitiv symbol as a separator, front-end applications replace the '/' in a symbol name with a placeholder character (map-character) unused by either RTTP or Refinitiv. The TREP adapter replaces the placeholder (map-character) with the original '/' character when communicating with Refinitiv.
