2.2 Product Documentation and Learning the Enterprise Message API
When learning the Enterprise Message API, LSEG recommends you set up a sandbox environment where developers can experiment with various iterations of Enterprise Message API applications. Enterprise Message API is designed to facilitate a hands-on (experiment-based) learning experience (versus a documentation-based methodology). To support a hands-on learning methodology, the Enterprise Message API package provides a set of training examples which showcase the usage of Enterprise Message API interfaces in increasing levels of complexity and sophistication. While coding and debugging applications, developers are encouraged to refer to the and/or to the features provided by their IDE (e.g., IntelliSense).
NOTE: Enterprise Message API application developers should already be familiar with OMM and Market Data distribution systems.
