Re: [Quickfix-developers] Re: Support for .NET 2.0 (C#)?

Well, the C# wrapper always had the basic functionality.  It is just 
some of the more advanced functionality had not been wrapped and was 
inaccesible.  The basic engine has always been usable.  At this point I 
would say that you can access 95% of the C++ functionality through C#.   
Most of the remaining functionality is more low level functionality that 
most people probably don't know about anyway.  Oh, and probably some 
obvious oversights that just have not yet been reported.

SmartQuant has been using quickfix through C# for over a year now 
(http://www.smartquant.com).  They have been reporting thier experiences 
and we have steadily improved the API to its current level.  Others have 
also used it in production, but I cannot verify to what extent.  
Hopefully they can share their experiences.

New functionality sometimes lags the C++ api, depending on the nature of 
the feature.  Any updates that do not affect the interface, instantly 
benefit all APIs.  Anything that requires complex interface updates, can 
also involve complex updates to the wrappers.  At this stage we are 
pretty careful to ensure that any changes to the C++ api are immediately 
reflected in the others.  We are currently generating the python API 
with SWIG, and we will certainly be investigating doing the same for 
Java and C#.
