Re: [Quickfix-developers] Quickfix-developers Digest, Vol 17, Issue 10

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

I was able to run the run_executor_python script you mentioned. When I
ran the executor.py directly, my mouse changed shape and the window
manager got weird in linux. Running the script file instead I was able
to get it working. With some directory shuffling and and to prove I
could, I was able to call executor.py directly. After comparing the
two files, I found the issue was linked to my use of
quickfix.Application rather than having written my own version of the
same class used in the script also called Application. Another example
I found uses MyApplication() instead but doesn't mention anything
about it. Long story (3.5 weeks) short, I needed to inherit rather
than instantiate.
