Attributes

Attribute nameData typeDescription
nameliteral Available parameters:
debug
emit debug information; default = "no". This setting primarily affects the number of <Event> nodes returned, but also switches off some extra processing.
decimals
sets the number of decimals used for decimal figures; -1 uses the automatic determination (version 1.1), 2 is default for version 1.2 and up. Relative difference always uses 4 decimal places (so it can be converted to a percentange with 2 decimal places)
connection-summary
do or do not emit HTTP header information within MetaData; default = "no"
generic-issues
Whether to use <Share>, <Index>, et al, or <Issue> with a type attribute (default is "no" for versions up to 3.0, and "yes" for versions 3.5 and up).
last-referencing
do or do not emit LastPublishedId information within MetaData; default depends on output version (version 2.x "yes", lower versions "no")
language
default = "nl", other version of the <Language> attribute; accepts only one ticker type, and overrides the current setting
maintenance-info
do or do not emit server maintenance information within MetaData; default = "yes"
merge-sectors
use only the generic sector "0"; default depends on output version ("yes" in version 1.1, otherwise "no")
