Re: [Quickfix-developers] Problems building applications (not quickfix itself) using XCode / OS X

[Oren M. <or...@qu...>]

I just tried creating a new XCode project (I'm still on version 2.0).  I 
put in bare code to create a simple QuickFIX initiator.

The only two settings I changed are setting ZeroLink to false, and 
adding -lquickfix to Other Linker Flags (is this where you did it).  I 
was then able to run the application.
