ForcePoll(str_connectorName);

str_connectorName

The name of the input connector to activate.

Description

Example

An external application has finished putting data into a database. StreamServer has a JDBC input connector called JDBCinput, and no polling is configured for this input connector. The external application signals StreamServer by creating a job on a TCP/IP connector. This job executes a script with the script function ForcePoll("JDBCinput"), and this script function signals the JDBC input connector to poll the database.
