The HeartbeatAggregate.sbapp
sample uses a Heartbeat operator to output the number of stock quotes received every five seconds. The actual counting is
done by an Aggregate operator, but it depends on the Heartbeat to trigger output during periods when no quotes are received.
In StreamBase Studio, import this sample with the following steps:
-
From the top-level menu, click
> . -
Enter
sample group
to narrow the list of options. -

StreamBase Studio creates a single project for the operator samples.
-
In the Project Explorer view, open the sample you just loaded.
If you see red marks on a project folder, wait a moment for the project to load its features.
If the red marks do not resolve themselves after a minute, select the project, right-click, and select
> from the context menu. -
Open the
src/main/eventflow/com.tibco.sb.sample.operator
folder. -
Open the
HeartbeatAggregate.sbapp
file and click the Run button. This opens the SB Test/Debug perspective and starts the module. -
In the Output Streams view, select the
TicCounts
stream. No output is displayed at this point, but the Output View is prepared to receive output. This view will eventually show the output of the application. -

Click Send Data. Within five seconds, look for a tuple on the

Click Send Data three times in rapid succession. Within five seconds, look for a tuple on the
TicCounts
output stream, stating that three quotes were received in the last five seconds. -
Wait five seconds and look for a tuple on the
TicCounts
output stream, stating that zero quotes were received in the last five seconds. -
When done, press F9 or click the Terminate EventFlow Fragment button.
