Re: What is the purpose of publishing value each t to t in .u.pub?

[rocuinneagain]

This is batching mode when the timer t is set. https://code.kx.com/q/basics/syscmds/#t-timer

In this mode the TP will cache data and only publish it when the timer triggers .z.ts https://code.kx.com/q/ref/dotz/#zts-timer

In this case t is a list of tables and it calls pub on each of them (' form)  https://code.kx.com/q/ref/maps/#each

value is called so that the cached data from the TP is populated in pub to send to subscribers (RDB etc.)

Some more information on batch mode: https://code.kx.com/q/wp/tick-profiling/

 

q)upd'[t;value each t] 
//A demo 'upd' which prints the parameters sent to it 
q)a:([] c1:1 2 3) 
q)b:([] c2:4 5 6) 
q)t:tables[] //Create list of tables 
q)t `s#`a`b 
q)upd'[t;value each t] (`a;+(,`c1)!,1 2 3) (`b;+(,`c2)!,4 5 6)
