[Quickfix-developers] Python library errors

[Ian S. <dar...@gm...>]

Hello,

I would greatly appreciate assistance with python for Quickfix
My major issue is that there are no working examples of a
Python connection working. I tested my config file using Banzai, and
things are working for that connection now. On my compiled version
with Python 2.5 included, I get the following error:
NotImplementedError: No matching function for overloaded
'new_SocketAcceptorBase' I have read through all of the documentation
I can find, and all of the python examples have flaws errors and bugs.
I fixed a few in order to make the code below, but I'm still having
serious issues. Maybe this is simple, and I just need to vary the
parameters I pass to SocketAcceptor.

Building Python with quickfix took a very long time, I'm going to go
through the process again and try to write up better examples so other
people have a more "copy+paste" experience.

Here is the error and code, from a terminal session.
import quickfix
def connecttest(file):
        try:
                settings = quickfix.SessionSettings(file)
                application = Application()
                storeFactory = quickfix.FileStoreFactory(settings)
                logFactory = quickfix.FileLogFactory(settings)
                acceptor = quickfix.SocketAcceptor(application, storeFactory,
settings, logFactory)
                acceptor.start()
                # while condition == true: do something
                acceptor.stop()
        except quickfix.ConfigError, e:
                print e

connecttest("/tmp/config.ini")

Traceback (most recent call last):

settings, logFactory)

    def __init__(self, application, storeFactory, settings, logFactory):

    this = _quickfix.new_SocketAcceptorBase(*args) #orig
