BQL implementation request #387

Open santiago-afonso opened 5 months ago

Hello. It appears that it should now be possible to add BQL support to Rblpapi. The blp python library, which also relies on the C++ API, has managed to do so. Here's the specific commit: https://github.com/matthewgilbert/blp/pull/28/commits/700c28036046798c2cfd68f1fcfe041c41c573f7

I can confirm that it works in the Python library. I don't know how hard it would be, but it doesn't seem particularly complex. (I'm sadly not knowledgeable enough to propose a fix to Rblpapi myself.)

Thank you developers for sharing your code, it's been very helpful.

I think we might have to rely on community contributions here.
