CSTM_RPT module routines

CSTM_RPT.C

A program to easily run multiple indicators and systems in parallel against a data set and then generate a custom report for the user.

The basic program logic is that the user gives us a report template file and 1 (or more) data ticker strings. We first process the template file into process records. The template lines consist of file constant verbs or action verbs. The concept is that process records process data items into output values. Once the template file is parsed, each of the user requested data files are loaded in turn and run against the report template.

Function	main
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void main( int argc , char **argv )
Remarks	Program entry point: expected command line input - CSTM_RPT report_template_file ticker_str [ ticker_str ... ]

Function	cntl_c_handler
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void cntl_c_handler( void )
Remarks	Catch Cntl C so we can exit via exit() and get a full file flush and close on any open files as well as any local rundown.

Function	math_exception_handler
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void math_exception_handler( int status_word , int error_type )
Remarks	Catch math errors so we can exit via exit() and get a full file flush and close on any open files as well as any local rundown.

Function	local_exit
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void local_exit( int exit_code )
Remarks	Master program exit catcher. All fatal library errors will also come here.

Function	dspy_debug_hook_vars
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void dspy_debug_hook_vars( int exit_code )
Remarks	Display program defined debug vars at image-rundown if debug_flag == TRUE.

Function	final_exit_cleanup
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void final_exit_cleanup( int exit_code )
Remarks	Do final image-rundown cleanup here. Also force debug_flag to TRUE if exit_code != SS_NORMAL.

Function	chk_config_args
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void chk_config_args( void )
Remarks	Do a check that necessary run-time stuff has been defined and that the user command line arguments make sense.

Function	chk_data_tables
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void chk_data_tables( void )
Remarks	This is a run-time check that all the definition tables are the same size.

Function	process_template_file
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void process_template_file( char *template_file )
Remarks	Load and process a report template file into the process_records.

Function	process_1_template_line
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void process_1_template_line( char *input_line )
Remarks	Worker routine to process a single template line into a process_record.

Function	process_ticker_list_file
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void process_ticker_list_file( char *ticker_file_name )
Remarks	Process a file of ticker_strs and run the defined report template against each of them.

Function	process_1_ticker
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void process_1_ticker( char *ticker_str )
Remarks	Run the defined report for one ticker.

Function	init_global_vars
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void init_global_vars( void )
Remarks	Initialize the program global and permanent variables.

Function	free_global_vars
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void free_global_vars( void )
Remarks	A nice hook to free global vars. Not really needed in this application.

Function	init_process_vars
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void init_process_vars( void )
Remarks	Called on each pass through process_1_ticker. Init all vars needed for defined report's process records and zero the output buckets.

Function	free_process_vars
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void free_process_vars( void )
Remarks	Called at the end of each pass through process_1_ticker to free the ticker's DATA_RECs.

Function	validate_primary_verb
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void validate_primary_verb( void )
Remarks	Validate that the first token is a primary verb (or an abbreviation of one). Will set the GLOBAL var verb_idx to either the matched verb or max table size if not found.

Function	chk_if_valid_data_source
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	int chk_if_valid_data_source( int found_data_src )
Remarks	Check if found data source is valid for this primary verb.

Function	find_data_source
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	int find_data_source( char *request )
Remarks	Identify if the user request is a valid data source (or an abbreviation of one). Also remaps the file constant data source to their special flag numbers.

Function	rpt_current_state
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void rpt_current_state( void )
Remarks	Do a run-time dump of the current state of all user visible indicator variables.

Function	process_paren_assignment
Include file	CSTM_RPT.H
Prototype	void process_paren_assignment( int idx )
Remarks	Called when a set of parentheses is found in a token str (tokens[ idx ]). This code identifies which trading system the user is providing overbought and oversold thresholds for, and then stores them. Example - threshold_trd_sig( 2000 , -2000 )
